Citridiorus — Lemon Thyme . Prostrate creeping perennial with 
the characteristic lemon odor. Not easy to establish, but once 
established, it makes any group of rocks ‘"belong”. Plant 
firmly, water, and shade. 
Serphyllum Splendens —(C) Dwarf variety, very hardy and 
rapid spreading. Use care in planting, and don’t delay after 
receiving the plants. 
TRADESCANTIA VIRGINICA— (Spiderwort) (C) 
A favorite inhabitant of old gardens, glaucous green, grassy 
foliage embellished literally from May to October with blue 
florets, each glisten in turn for but a day. Good, we think, 
and very easy. An ancient, with all the virtues of the ancient. 
Reliable, faithful, humble, and lovely. 
TUNICA (C) 
Saxifraga —Frail and airy, but thoroughly trustworthy. The 
wiry little stems rise above the tufts of grass-like foliage and 
scatter myriads of pink blossoms upon the air. As good for 
rockeries, as we know. 
VERONICA ( Speedwell ) (C) 
Incana —Silvery, wooly foliage, with spikes about one foot in 
height of intense blue. Keeps a trim appearance throughout 
the season, and we think it indispensable either in the rockery 
or the border. 
Spicata —An eye filling plant in July and August with its 
noble spikes of violet blue flowers. Feed generously and 
divide every three years. Delightful as a cut flower. (C) 
VIOLA—Cornuta—Tufted Pansies. Probably the only perennial 
that can conscientiously be recommended as an edging plant. 
Even so, if you expect it to bloom as advertised you must keep 
the dead ones from going to seed. 
Admiration (D) Deep violet—profusely blooming. A better 
color than that of Jersey Gem. 
Blue Perfection (C) Clear blue with yellow throat, and very 
large. Almost pansy like. 
Sutton’s Apricot (E) Apricot tinged orange. Not so large 
a bloom, but a rich and reliable one.
