Ever-Blooming 
Butterfly Bush 
or Summer Lilac 
So-called because it seems to attract butterflies 
in large numbers. We notice that it is not alone 
the common little yellow species of butterfly, 
but also the large and gorgeously colored butter¬ 
flies that swarm about it. This .shrub from a 
young plant set out in the spring or fall will pro¬ 
duce a handsome bush, which the first year often 
maintains a height of four feet. It produces long 
graceful stems. The huds and foliage also are in- 
borne by the hundreds on a flower head which is 
frequently ten inches long. While perfectly hardy, 
we recommend covering the roots with manure, 
leaves or other suitable materials as winter ap¬ 
proaches. Package of Seeds No. 1175, 12c. 
Blue Lace Flower 
Resembles Queen Anne Lace, but the florets are 
considerably larger and of a rare blue color. The

composed of a great mass of florets on long, strong, 
graceful stems. The buds and foliage also are in 
teresting and beautiful. The Blue Lace Flower 
blooms freely, in the garden from July to October 
or until the first hard frosts. Start seed indoors 
in April and transplant to open ground when 
seedlings are about two inches tall. Seed may al 
so be started outdoors after frost is past.
