Spring. Glistening patches among the rocks. It demands sun 
and light soil. 
CHEIRANTHUS ( Siberian Wallflower) (C) 
Brilliant orange flowers with a delightful but well bred fra¬ 
grance similar to wallflowers and just as winning. Our favorite. 
It needs a light soil, sun, winter protection. Worthy of a 
place in the rock garden, in the border, or for cutting. 
CHRYSANTHEMUM MAXIMUM (Shasta Daisy) 
Alaska (D) Glistening, and large white flowers in rich pro¬ 
fusion. i /4 feet in height. Blooming in June and July. It 
does itself credit, and its possesser, pride. 
King Edward VII. (D) The finest of the Moon-penny daisies. 
Mrs. C. Lowthian Bell (D) Free flowering, large flowers— 
from June to August. This, the offspring of the ordinary 
Shasta daisy, must have a deep rich soil, and a sunny spot. 
Plant 18 inches apart and separate every other year; otherwise 
it grows leggy, and the flowers, scarce. 
CLEMATIS (E) 
Davidiana —Shrubby, herbaceous plant with overgrown green 
foliage, requiring lime and sand. Deliciously scented lavender 
flowers in August and September. 
CONVALLARIA- Lily of the Valley. 
Virginally sweet, the ancient lily of the valley should have a 
place in every garden of him who doth not fix his soul on 
show, but rather on reality. That place should not be in the 
flower border. There you will find it breaking out of bounds, 
and choking out all in its path. It should be planted against a 
wall, or in the foreground of shrubbery—in a bed deeply dug, 
and well manured—preferably in September with flat, single 
crowns, layed 3 inches apart, and 2 inches deep. 
Majalis —Hauntingly fragant, with fairy-like bells of chaste 
white. (B) 
COREOPSIS (Tic{seed) (A) 
Grandiflora —Of easiest culture in well drained soil, and in 
sun. Large, clean yellow flowers—long lasting when cut.
