COPTIS trifoJia (Gold Thread). The only place for this little evergreen is in shady situations. Its

flowers are borne in great profusion; valuable for cutting. 12 cts. each, $1 per dozen, e. 
C. grandiflora. I take this to be a form of C. lanceolata, but with me the flowers are larger 
and more numerous. 15 cts. each, 2 for 25 cts. e.

DELPHINIUM (Larkspur). These thrive to a certain extent in any ordinary garden soil, but. like 
many other garden plants, the finest results can only be gained by giving them special*care. It 
is necessary to work the soil to a good depth, with plenty of well-composted manure mixed in. 
Give each plant plenty of room. The tallr species are fine for the back of the mixed border 
D. altissimum. 15 cts. each. c. 
D. Intermedium. 20 cts. each. c. 
D. Mackianum. 20 cts. each. c. 
D. Nuttallii. 15 cts. each. c. 
D. Cashmerianum. Dwarf; 10 to 18 
inches high. Flowers a distinct pale 
blue. 20 cts. each. c. 
DIANTHUS (Pink). These succeed very well 
in ordinary rich, loamy soil. If, however, 
large flowers are desired, it is necessary 
to prepare a bed for them. It should be 
raised above the common level, and made 
up of turf-loam, leaf-mold and well-com¬ 
posted manure. If the soil is naturally 
heavy, enough sand should be used to 
counteract this. When large blooms are 
desired, a portion of the bloomsshould be 
removed. This, however, is not neces¬ 
sary for border decoration.

Pink, only 3 to 4 inches high, with large, 
deep rose-spotted flowers. A native of 
the Alps of Austria. Fine for the rock
