H ELI OPS IS leevis (Wild Ox-eye),

to soon 
form good-sized clumps,

handsome. Summer . . . $o 
H. mollis. Grows about 4 feet 
high. Flowers 3 inches wide, 
yellow, coming in August . . 
H. orgyalis (H. salicifolius). 
One of the most valuable 
perennial Sunflowers. At¬ 
tains a height of 6 to 10 feet 
in good soil, and soon forms 
large clumps. Its narrow, 
drooping foliage gives a mass 
of it a most attractive appear¬ 
ance 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 acknowl¬ 
edge it to be one of the finest 
of its class in cultivation.
