New Butterfly Bush 
ILE DE FRANCE 
N otwithstanding the fact that the color 
of the older Buddleias or Butterfly Bushes was 
somewhat vague and washed out, giving the 
shrubs a rather indefinite effect in the border, never¬ 
theless, these plants have been for years the most 
popular shrubs in cultivation. However, the weak color was a standing 
challenge to plant breeders. Sooner or later some hybridist would meet 
the issue and produce a really first class Butterfly Bush. 
This has now been accomplished and lie de France is the answer. Its color is real and substantial, a brilliant rosy 
purple with a violet suffusion that actually stands out and is visible in the landscape. In addition the flowers are 
fragrant, which is also new among the Butterfly Bushes. The individual flower spikes are very large, measuring 
10 inches in length. The shrubs develop into well-branched symmetrical bushes "b/i to 4 feet tall. A truly great 
creation. Field grown plants, 40c each; $4.00 per do^. 
G{ If wanted by parcel post, add 19c for each three plants.

Complaints must he made immediately upon receipt of 
stock. There are so many causes for failure over which 
we have no control, that we can assume no responsibility 
after the stock is delivered in good order. Poor soil, 
changeable weather, ignorant or careless culture—all con- 
tribute to failure. A catalog as comprehensive as this 
must of necessity offer some varieties of difficult culture; 
when these are ordered we presume the people ordering 
have the knowledge, enthusiasm and perseverance, and 
these we cannot supply.
