G. paniculata. A native of Europe, Has much to 
commend it. Its flowers are very numerous, so much 
so that to a casual observer, they seem almost in¬ 
separable. They are nearly white, borne in panicles, 
and give a very charming effect, either in the border 
or when used in bouquets. It is a plant that grows 
alone in any good garden soil, and is sure to be prized 
by all who try it. 15 cts. each, $1.25 per doz. d. 
Seeds, 5 cts. per pkt. 
G. repens. Is more dwarf in its growth, and, though its pretty white flowers are numerous, it will 
not be found equal in any way to G. paniculata. 25 cts. each. d.

rockery. Flowers vary from deep crimson-purple to a almost white, coming in profusion all summer

GALAX aphy 11 a (Southern Colt’s-foot). Evergreen, with shining leaves, which turn in autumn to a 
dark, lovely reddish purple. Produces wand-like spikes of small but pretty white flowers Moist 
shade is its most suitable location. 15 cts. each, $1 per doz. d. 
BEPATICA (Liverwort). Is a genus of hardy shade-loving plants long in cultivation in Europe. 
After setting they do best to leave without disturbing F 
from year to year. They bear plenty of enrichment, and 
the more of it that we apply in the start, well mixed 
in, of course, the better the results in after years.

IIIflrjTANTHIJH orgy alls (//, salicifolius ). One of the 
most valuable perennial Sunflowers. Attains a height of 
6 to 10 feet in good soil, and soon forms large clumps. 
Its narrow, drooping foliage give a mass of it a most 
attractive appearance most of the summer; and when, 
finally, the large, handsome yellow flowers appear in 
great profusion, just before frost, and endure after some 
of the first hard freezings, we have to acknowledge it 
to be one of the finest of its class in cultivation. 25 cts. 
each, 2 for 35 cts.; $1.65 per doz. c. 
IT. Irot.lfloniH. This plant is much shorter than the pre¬ 
ceding, and its flowers arc a brighter yellow. It is early 
ns compared to most species. It spreads so as to soon 
form good sized clumps, and the flowers are very hand¬ 
some. 15 cts. each, I1.25 per doz. d. Hepatica triloba.
