HELLEBORUS NIGER 
(The Christmas Rose) 
This interesting hardy plant can be grown in 
any sheltered position. It makes an excellent 
addition to the rock garden, as its blooms ap¬ 
pear in November and continue to bloom as 
long as the weather is open. Frost and snow 
apparently have little effect on its blooming, as 
whenever a thaw happens in the early winter, 
their flowers appear untouched by ice and snow. 
The color is white, suffused with pink, and if 
sheltered in a glass cold frame they will turn 
almost pure white, on stems from 6 to 12 inches 
in length, flowers from 2 to 3 inches across. 
The leaves are large and leathery in substance. 
Ever since the government embargo on all 
plants, this most interesting plant has been ex¬ 
tremely scarce and almost out of the market. 
Extra strong clumps, $1.00 each; $10.00 per 
doz., delivered free in September and October.
