carpet of foliage which is rarely over one inch high. 
It requires a rich soil in a damp situation where it 
will be sheltered from the hot sun, as it grows moss¬ 
like over the ground. In severe climatic regions it 
must be taken in the greenhouse over winter as it 
can only resist a few degrees of cold. This high 
mountain bog plant is perhaps the choicest of beauti¬ 
ful rockery plants offered in the miniature class. 
Fine three-inch pot grown berried specimens at 50c. 
LITHOSPERMUM PROSTRATUM— A very low, 
spreading, shrub-like, evergreen rock plant, covered 
with rich blue flowers in carpet-like masses for several 
weeks during spring and early summer. One of the 
most gorgeous crevice and rock wall plants for sunny 
locations in porous fertile soil. Pot grown plants, 
35c each. 
PENTSTEMON CARDWELLII (MOUNTAIN 
GEM) —A very dwarf evergreen shrub creeping over 
rocks with lavender tubular flowers in late spring. 
Makes beautiful carpets of evergreen foliage, needs 
very sandy soil. 3 for 50c. 
Saxifraga Crustata 
SAXIFRAGA CRUSTATA— Very interesting low 
growing rock plants with handsome rosette-like 
foliage that has a white marking on the edges ap¬ 
pearing like hoarfrost from the distance. Neat and 
showy yet easily grown, preferring shelter from the 
hot sun. 15c per clump. 
SAXIFRAGA AIZOON AND OTHERS— Lovely, 
neat, compact growing rock plants with handsome 
foliage and loose sprays of flowers which are splendid 
for cutting. We have many forms of these En¬ 
crusted Stonecrops, all of which are beautiful as per¬ 
manent foliage plants in the partly shaded rockery 
locations. Prices range from 15c to 50c each in the 
finest kinds. Collection of six named varieties for 
$1.75.
