PENTSTEMON 
Sutton’s Large-Flowering 
Grown as annuals in the North but are perennial in the South. 
A much improved strain of this favorite flower. The large Glox- 
inia-shaped blooms vary from pure white, pink, and rose, to richest 
crimson, including many which are beautifully edged with a fine con- 
trasting color. Very valuable for cutting or bedding. 
12917. Pink Shades. A most charming combination of delicate tints 
only, including rose, pink, and carmine, on white grounds. 
Per pkt., 38c. 
12919. Scarlet. Brilliant flowers, free from magenta tint. Makes a 
very striking bed edged with the pink or white varieties. 
Per pkt., 38c. 
12921. Pure White. Large pure white flowers freely produced. A very 
welcome addition both for bedding and cutting. Per pkt., 26c. 
PENTSTEMON GLABER 
This Pentstemon is well suited for bedding or for the herbaceous 
border, but it should be given a well-drained soil and an open sunny 
position. The plant is compact in habit, and the flowers, which are 
produced in large trusses, are much sought after by bees. Height 
12 to 15 inches. 
12934C. Glaber, Sutton’s Hybrids. Ranging in color from pale 
lavender-blue through mauve and purple to rose-pink shades. 
Per pkt., 38c. 
PHACELIA (Hardy Annual) 
12998. Viscida (Musgrave). A very attractive variety, with rich- 
colored flowers of a beautiful bright blue which is intensified by 
the fresh green foliage. The plants remain in bloom over a long 
period. Height 1 foot. Per pkt., 26c. 
PRIMULA MALACOIDES 
13430. Sutton’s Giant. A wonderful break in Primula malacoides 
which we consider to be the forerunner of a new type. The rich 
lilac-pink flowers are borne loosely, tier upon tier, on stems often 
2 feet or more in height. In size, the blooms compare with other 
varieties of P. malacoides as do those of the Giant sinensis with 
the ordinary varieties of that type. The plants grow freely, and 
although they attain very large proportions the grace and beauty 
of the original species is fully maintained. Seed very scarce. 
Per pkt., 89c. 
13433. Sutton’s Brightness. In this remarkable variety the flowers 
are deep rose, closely approaching crimson, and of a glistening 
brightness not seen in any other variety in the Malacoides section; 
under artificial light the blooms are a bright rosy scarlet and are 
unsurpassed for decorative purposes. The plant is very free flow¬ 
ering and much above the average in height. Award of Merit, 
Royal Horticultural Society. Per pkt., 64c. 
13439. Sutton’s Achievement. Flowers considerably larger than 
those of the type, nicely rounded and of a clear pale rose-pink 
color, thrown up in graceful profusion well above the distinctly 
crested and neat foliage. Per pkt., 38c. 
13441. Sutton’s White Queen. An attractive pure white form and 
well worth growing for the contrast it affords to the other va-

Special attention is called to the delightful Double 
Lavender English Primrose offered in our Hardy
