ACHILLEA ptarmica. The Pearl. Pure, double white flowers all 
summer. Indispensable for cutting. 3 for 75c; $2.25 per doz. 
ACONITUM Fischeri (Monkshood). While this plant will grow in 
the full sun, it has the additional advantage of succeeding in the 
shade or semi-shade, and may even be grown under trees. Further- 
more, it blooms in September when flowers in the garden are get¬ 
ting scarce. It is a stately plant, growing 2/i to 3 feet tall, and the 
foliage is decorative and attractive. The color of the flower is a 
lovely dark blue. 3 for 85c; $2.50 per doz. 
* AJUGA reptans rubra (Bugle). A dwarf 
creeping plant which will grow in either the 
sun or the shade. Indispensable in 
the rockery or for edging perennial 
borders, carpeting bare spots or for 
filling in where there is no room 
for larger plants. Ajuga 
grows about 4 inches 
high and the foliage 
has a lovely bronzy 
cast. The plant is cov¬ 
ered with lovely deep 
purplish blue flowers in 
May and June. 3 for 
75c; $2.25 per doz. 
\LYSSUM saxatile com- 
pactum (Basket of 
Gold). Great clusters 
of bright yellow flow¬ 
ers in the early spring. 
Specially lovely when 
planted with tulips. 3 
for 75c; $2.25 per doz. 
Aubrietia, New Hybrids 
Armeria Maritima Splendens 
HARDY 
ANCHUSA, Feltham Pride. The older Drop- 
more and Lissadell varieties of Anchusa 
make rather straggly, weedy plants, which, 
if it were not for the glorious, lovely blue 
color of their flowers, would probably not 
be tolerated in our gardens. Heretofore, we 
put up with them simply because their beau¬ 
tiful color had to be represented in any 
planting. This, however, is no longer neces¬ 
sary. The new Feltham Pride makes a 
compact, trim, handsome plant and the 
color of its flowers is the same glorious blue 
that made the older sorts renowned. 3 for 
$1.20; $4 00 per doz. 
*ANTHERICUM liliastrum major (St. Ber¬ 
nard’s Lily). This lovely plant has narrow 
grassy leaves and the Lily-like flowers are 
borne in the most graceful sprays. It will 
grow in the full sun or the partial shade, but 
it should not be planted in the full shade. 
Cut, it makes lovely bouquets, either alone 
or in combination with other flowers. The 
flower spikes are lYi feet tall and the lovely 
white Lily-like flowers bloom in May and 
June. 3 for 75c; $2.25 per doz. 
ARABIS alpina fl. pi. (Rock Cress). This 
lovely little semi-creeping plant is equally 
useful as an edging plant or for low bor¬ 
ders or in the rockery. In the spring it is 
literally concealed with masses of lovely 
double, white flowers which are large 
enough to cut for small bouquets and which 
last a long time when cut. 3 for 75c; $2.50 
per doz. 
*ARMERIA maritima splendens (Sea Pink) 
A dainty, dwarf perennial plant with grassy 
leaves. The tufted plants grow about six 
inches tall and are covered with lovely pale 
pink flowers in May and June. Indispensable 
in the rockery. 3 for 65c; $2.00 per doz.
