RUSSIAN VIOLET 
This rare Violet has practically been out of commerce for 
the past ten years. It is very much sought after by those 
who know it and want it for the exquisite fragrance of its 
double flowers. It is slow of growth, does not spread much 
and it has taken us a goodly number of years to produce a 
quantity of this fine Violet. Nothing sweeter could be grown 
by you in your garden. Excellent for that difficult shady 
place. 
Buddleia / 
FORTUnE/ 
A 1936 INTRODUCTION BY WAYSIDE GARDENS 
Plant Patent No. 206. 
Most everyone is familiar with the Butterfly Bush. Several va¬ 
rieties of it have been offered for a number of years. All of them 
had defects and many shortcomings. In Buddleia Fortune we be¬ 
lieve we come very close to perfection. The bush or shrub is of 
very neat habit, about four feet high and four feet across. It pos¬ 
sesses none of the undesirable wild and rough growing character¬ 
istics of the older varieties. The foliage of Buddleia Fortune is a 
deep, leathery, dark green. The color is pure lilac with a brilliant 
orange eye in each tiny flower, thousands of which make up the 
sprays which are from twelve to eighteen inches long. The flowers 
are produced in super-abundance throughout the entire summer 
and autumn until stopped by frost. The flower sprays instead of 
being flat on one side as in the old varieties are fully round and 
in bloom from base to tip practically at the same time. The blooms 
of the older varieties are faded and brown at the bottom of the 
spray before the tips are in bloom. To see one of these plants in 
bloom is a sight worth while. The flowers may be cut with stems 
2 to 3 feet long and last in water for several days, which is not 
possible with older kinds. All of the old kinds wilt very quickly. 
Buddleia Fortune is a grand cut flower as well as a fine plant for 
the flower garden. Strong plants that will bloom this summer.
