STATICE. 
The statice is not 
an everlasting, but 
the flowers dry well 
and like the Gypso- 
phila are of great 
value. Flowers 
should not be cut 
until fully opened. 
Keep the seed moist 
and shaded until the 
plants are up.

HELIPTERUM. 
WAITZIA. 
The flower of the 
helipterum should 
be cut when about 
half open, tied in 
bundles and hung 
up to dry in a sha¬ 
dy place, with the 
flowers open and 
retain their bright¬ 
ness for many years 
It is also a valuable 
addition to our sum¬

RHODANTHE. 
A new class of everlastings 
with clusters of most beautiful 
flowers. Unless picked early, 
the center of the flower becomes 
discolored. They are very ten¬ 
der annuals and should be start¬ 
ed under glass, and not trans¬ 
planted until the ground is 
warm. Flourishes in a soil of 
sandy leaf-mold. 
Waitzia aurea, yellow, one foot,. 35 
grand.ifl.ora, large golden flowers,. 25 
XERANTHEMUM. 
If the flowers are al¬ 
lowed to remain too 
long before being cut 
they expand too much, 
and loose their beauti¬ 
ful shape. The seeds 
do not germinate freely 
but when the plants are 
well started they grow 
rapidly and produce an 
abundance of flowers. 
Remarkably free blooming everlastings, of neat habit, 
leaves silvery, flowers abundant. Hardy annual.
