ANEMONE or WINDFLOWER 
Anemones thrive wonderfully in border or rockery, some 
kinds in woodlands. The chalice-like blossoms are often 
set in soft ruffs of downy green, and after the petals have 
fallen, iridescent silken seed tassels will prolong the charm. 
Plants bloom in one year. Seed sown in late autumn usually 
germinates strongly the following spring. If sown in spring 
or summer, it may come fairly quickly, or it may he dor¬ 
mant until spring has come again.

trast. Vigorous. By the way, both A. patens and A. pul- 
satilla will repay the digging in of a bit of lime, old 
mortar, plaster, or even pounded oyster shells, about their 
roots; with due lightness of touch, of course. Pkt. 15c;

expanding finally into stars. Pkt. 15c. 
*ANODA, the OPALCUP 
Anoda lavateroides, the Opalcup, is an annual of easiest 
culture, likely to show blossom the first week in June 
from April sowings. Then there will be continuous flower¬ 
ing until hard late freezes in autumn. Here I have counted 
as late as November 15th, fifty perfect blossoms open at 
once on a single plant. The flowers are shallow chalices, 
to three inches across, built of crinkly, lustrous petalage 
of just that delightful opaline coloring that lies between 
blue and pink; in sun, called pink; in shadow, blue. Big, 
bushy plants. Sow any time from April to August. Pkt. 
15c; oz. 35c; Ya oz. 50c. 
ANODA HASTATA—ebfx(8)70. A perennial Opalcup of 
doubtful hardiness north. If, though, the seed is sown 
early, it will give a showing of big lavender-pink blossoms 
the first fall; in any case it is worth growing just for the 
handsome close pillars of downy foliage. Pkt. 20c.
