AQUILEGIA 
Long Spurred 
Columbines 
For centuries before the Long'Spurred 
Hybrid Columbines were thought of, 
Aquilegias were loved and cherished as 
being among the most valuable of all the 
garden plants. Now that the dreams of 
the plant breeders have come true and 
the Long-Spurred Hybrids are an ac¬ 
complished fact, the Aquilegias are even 
more popular than they were with our 
ancestors. Without the modern Colum¬ 
bine, it wouldn’t be a garden. All the 
Columbines will stand considerable 
shade.

In England the Foxglove grows 
wild, but, notwithstanding this, 
it is a great garden favorite as it 
well deserves to be. For stately 
and picturesque beauty it is not 
to be surpassed, and, planted in 
masses, in the garden among 
shrubs or naturalized on the edge 
of the woods, in the orchard or 
along brooks, it is extremely ef¬ 
fective and satisfactory. Strictly 
speaking, excepting for the Shir¬ 
ley, it is a biennial, but, as it re¬ 
news itself from self-sown seed, 
it may be treated as a perennial. 
Thousands of Foxgloves have 
been naturalized in the Schenley 
Park. The Foxgloves will stand 
considerable shade.
