GYPSOPHILA 
(BABY’S BREATH.) 
Graceful plants of light fairy-like growth, 
covered with tiny white flowers. In great 
demand for combining with sweet peas and 
other cut flowers. Note that there are two 
kinds, the annual and perennial. 
ANNUAL WHITE. P47. Blooms first year 
from seed. Good plan to sow this every few 
weeks so as to have a constant supply to 
use with cut flowers. New special strain, 
best to date, “London Market,” pure white. 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 35c. 
ANNUAL PINR. P47%> Same as above, but 
dainty pink. Pkt. 10c; oz. 25c. 
PERENNIAL WHITE SINGLE. P48. Blooms 
second year from seed and increases in size 
of plants each year. The tiny white flowers 
on branched stems are so thick as to give 
the plant a white lace-like effect. Pkt. 10c; 
% oz. 26c. 
PERENNIAL WHITE DOUBLE. F049. Sow 
outdoors from April to June. Roots last for 
years, increasing in size. Color, white. 
About one-fourth the plants will produce 
double flowers. Balance single or semi¬ 
double, and may be pulled out if not de¬ 
sired. The double is best for drying for 
winter; fine to use fresh also to combine 
with sweet peas and other flowers. Florists 
use lots of it, summer and winter. Pkt. 
25c; 6 pks. $ 1 . 00 . 
Mexican Fire Bush (Kochia) 
P73. Also called Summer Cypress. The moss¬ 
like green foliage turns to deep carmine in 
fall. Makes inexpensive showy hedge. Im¬ 
proved giant strain. May be thinned to sev¬ 
eral feet apart, so each plant will stand 
alone, like an evergreen. Or, if a foot or so 
apart, will make a hedge. Plants may be 
trimmed and shaped like the perennial 
hedges. Pkt. 10c; % oz. 26c. 
Hardy Perennial Blue Salvia 
SALVIA AZUREA. P051. Also called “Heav¬ 
enly Blue Flowering Sage.” Grows 3 to 4 
feet high; stately willow-like growth; pro¬ 
duces spikes of pretty sky-blue flowers in 
great profusion. Will bloom first season 
from seed sown early outdoors or started 
inside and set out later in spring. Lives for 
years. Can be transplanted in early spring 
without harm. Blooms in August and Sep¬ 
tember.
