Schizanthus 
Butterfly or Pringfe Plower 
This is one of the airiest and dain¬ 
tiest flowers imaginable, especially 
adapted to bordering beds of taller 
flowers and those of a heavier growth. 
The seeds germinate quickly and come 
into bloom in a few weeks from sow¬ 
ing. The florescence is such as to 
completely obscure the foliage, making 
the plant a veritable pyramid of the 
most delicate and charming blooms. 
The Schizanthus make admirable pot 
plants for the house in late winter and 
early spring. For this purpose sow in 
the autumn.

Schizanthus Grandifiora 
Butterfly Mixture 
Our Butterfly Mixture, containing a 
full range of all shades and color com¬ 
binations, is the best all around strain 
for bedding use. It is a strikingly 
bright mixture, with large flowers 
beautifully marked, on compact, free- 
flowering 12 to 15-inch pyramidal 
plants. Pinest strain to date. Pkt. 20c. 
Lily of the Valley 
Schizanthus Butterfly Mixture 
There’s a place in every garden for this 
charming hardy perennial. Plant any time, 
but EARLY spring or in fall is best. 
Splendid for shade, or partial shade. Thrives 
also out in the open, but is especially valuable 
for places where many other flowers will not 
grow. May be planted in clumps, or the 
clumps may be pulled apart, making 25 to 30 
single roots. Good way to get quick results is 
to make 5 to 8 smaller clumps from the one I 
send you. Use fine sand liberally in soil when 
planting, give plenty of water, and your plants 
will bloom and spread nicely. Clump $1.00; 3 
clumps $2.50; 5 clumps $4.00, prepaid. (Am 
Ailing Lily of Valley orders liberally this 
spring, as have a nice lot of it now.)
