ANDORRA NURSERIES, 
ANEMONE JAPONICA. These charming Japanese Anemones are deservedly 
great favorites with all who love and own a garden, not only for their great and lasting 
beauty, but also on account of their being at their best during the late summer and autumn 
months, a time when such flowers are much needed to brighten up our flower beds and 
shrubbery borders. The blooms will last fully a week in water, if cut when freshly opened. 
They need no skillful cultivation, but they do best when planted in a deep, rich soil, flower¬ 
ing as freely whether the season be a wet or dry one. When grown in groups these plants 
can be best seen and most fully appreciated. See cuts of Japanese Anemone flowers on 
outside cover page and page 40. 
Anemone Japonica alba (Honorine Jobert). Pure white, yellow center, dark eye.

Single plants 25 cents ; five for $1.00. 
Anemone Pennsylvanica. June and July. White, cup-shaped flowers an inch across. 
Adapted to shady positions, where it rapidly multiplies. 20 cents eaqh. 
ARUNDO DONAX. This noblest of all reeds, with its graceful tropical 
foliage, is the hardiest and 
most useful of the bamboo¬ 
like plants, and is particu¬ 
larly beautiful and effective 
when planted in an isolated 
position on the lawn or on 
the margin of a lake or 
stream. Last year the canes 
of this plant with us attained 
the height of eighteen feet. 
No more effective center 
could be chosen for a bed of 
sub-tropical plants than a 
clump of these imposing reeds 
surrounded by ornamental 
grasses such as Erianthus 
Ravennae, Eulalia Japonica, 
and Eulalia gracillima uni- 
vitata. Single plants 25 
cents ; clump 75 cents. 
A. donax variegata. 
Variegated variety of the 
above. In consequence 
of its effective variega¬ 
tion it never assumes a 
large development, like 
the green form of the 
species. A most striking 
position for this is to 
plant it in a clump on 
the green turf, which 
arundo donax. shows its variegation so 
well by contrast. Requires the protection of a light litter of straw or other suitable 
matter during the winter in our climate. Single plants 50 cents. 
Six plants of one variety for the price of five; twelve plants for the price of ten.
