Winter Cherry, forming dense bushes 
about 2 feet high, producing freely its 
bright orange-scarlet, lantern-like fruits.

Physostegia • False Dragonhead

summer flowering perennials, forming dense

Platycodon • Balloon Flower 
The Platycodons are closely allied to the 
campanulas, and form neat, branched bushes 
of upright habit. Mrs. Ely says of them: 
“Do best if planted in early spring. They 
grow from 2 to 2}^ feet high, and after the 
third season each plant will have from ten 
to twelve stalks covered with the lovely blue 
or white blossoms during July and August.” 
Grandiflorum. Deep blue, cupped, star¬ 
shaped flowers. 
Grandiflorum album. A white-flowered 
form of the above. 
All Platycodons, 25c. each; doz. $2.50;
