ARMERIA

ceed in any soil, forming- evergreen tufts 
of bright green foliage, from which in¬ 
numerable flowers appear in dense heads, 
on stiff wiry stems, from 9 to 12 inches 
high. They flower more or less contin¬ 
uously from early spring until late in 
the fall. Very useful in the rockery as 
well as in the border.

ers freely produced from a neat cushion¬ 
like plant. Height 8 to 10 inches.

FORMOSA NEW HYBRIDS. For some time 
past there has been an active demand for 
a mixture of the dark, bright colors in 
Armeria, while the strains available up 
to now have been composed mostly of the 
light shades. This new strain gives us the 
shades of bright pinks, coral red, light 
red, violet and purple which have been 
lacking. The numerous flowers are large 
and ball shaped, borne on strong, 16 inch 
upright stems, excellent for cutting be¬ 
sides making a gay splash of color in the 
rockery in early summer. Perfectly hardy. 
We recommend this Armeria to all gard¬ 
eners.
