borne in large clusters on long stems. It grows about 2 feet high and is literally 
covered with these snowy blossoms from spring until frost. Splendid cut flower 
for vases. Although a perennial it will flower freely the first season if the seed 
is sown early . Pkt. 10c.

blue flowers in summer. Effective in hardy flower borders, shrubberies,

bloom the plants are showy and effective—and will stand a lot of 
abuse on account of the lasting quality of the flowers; 1 foot.
