mens in the border or on the lawn; large

clumps on the margin of ponds or lakes.

GYPSOPHILA 
BRISTOL FAIRY 
A Double Gypsophila of greater 
vigor, producing large panicles of 
flowers, having the advantage of 
blooming more or less continuously 
all summer. This variety is really 
too well known in the florist trade 
to go into further description. 
The plants we will supply this 
spring we grafted from field grown 
scions last June. They were then 
established in 2" pots; in early fall 
they were shifted into 3". Through¬ 
out the winter months they were 
pinched back two or three times 
maintaining most of the vitality in 
the roots. 
This method of treatment is far 
superior to the plants that are pro¬ 
pagated with the older method of 
iust simply grafting. These plants 
will produce a nice crop of flowers 
from thirty to forty days after 
planting. By removing the flowers 
at that time they will come back 
again in early fall with another 
nice crop of flowers. Of course from 
thereon they will produce for you 
heavier crops each year 
It is advisable to place your or¬ 
ders as early as possible. We have 
large quantities on hand at this 
time. However, this is an item that 
is generally booked up before the 
shipping season. By ordering early 
we will reserve the plants for you 
until proper time for planting. 
We offer strong established 3" 
pot plants. 
Per 10, $2.50; Per 100, $20.00
