In great profusion. Succeeds in sun or shade.

cut foliage, and large, golden yellow flowers pro¬ 
duced all summer. Succeeds in the poorest soil. 
Tinctoria Kelwayii. Deep golden yellow. 
Aquilegia (Columbine) 
These are old garden favorites, and few plants 
look better or thrive so well in woodlands or in 
shady corners where most plants cannot grow. 
The new hybrids, most of them having unusually 
long slender spurs, with the most varied and delicate 
combinations of color, are exauisitely beautiful. 
I have become greatly interested in them and have 
raised a splendid stock from seeds of my own special 
selection, to which have been added the English 
hybrids of Veitch & Son, and Barr & Son’s extra- 
selected strain, including the beautiful new rose and 
scarlet shades. Everyone will, I am sure, be greatly 
pleased with them. Plant in fall or early spring, 
in half shade or in full sun. 
NEW LONG-SPURRED HYBRIDS. A mag¬ 
nificent strain in many new and .beautiful shades. 
25 cts. each, $2.50 per doz. 
CHRYSANTHA. Long-spurred; pure golden- 
yellow. 
CANADENSIS. The dainty wild Columbine of 
our native woods. Light reef and yellow; a fine 
plant for the rockery and half-shaded places. 
HELENA. A fine strain of short-spurred hybrids 
in many colors. 
MUNSTEAD GIANT WHITE (syn. Nivea 
grandiflora). Fine, pure white. 
Astilbe (Spiraea, or Goat's Beard) 
The Astilbes make handsome plants, and are 
naturally suited for a moist, half-shady situation, 
although they may be successfully grown in any 
rich garden border. Some of the varieties, like 
Davidii and Grandis, grow very tall, with striking, 
handsome foliage, while the new Arendsi hybrids are 
strikingly beautiful planted in mass. All are suitable 
as semi-aquatics, planted in low places and on the 
edges of ponds, etc. The Japanese varieties have 
long been among the most popular plants for 
Easter, as they are very easily forced inside, and 
may be grown just as successfully out-of-doors, as 
they are perfectly hardy. 
Among these are many new improved varieties:

blooms, shaded lilac. 4 feet. 35 cts.
