Hnemones. 
O F all the late flowering hardy bor¬ 
der plants none are more 
graceful and appeal more to 
garden 0 lovers than these charming 
Anemones from Japan While their 
hte blooming habit (September to 
November) gives them special value, 
their great beauty would make them 
welcome at any season. The blooms 
are produced in loose clusters on 
steins from two to four feet high 
which rise above a cluster of attrac¬ 
tive foliage. (See illustration). 
We offer four of the best varieties.

Stokesia CyaneaTsn^™L H9ttr '

last season and is all that is claimed for it. The plant in bloom is about 
eighteen inches high and the flowers, which are produced in very much 
the same manner as the annual garden aster, are very double, of a light 
pleasing blue, two to four inches in diameter, and produce a very effective 
appearance.

New Double SI bite Hrabis. (Arabis Alpina_fl.pl.} 
T HIS is a very desirable new double form of the interesting Rock-cress, 
blooming in early May and forming a mass of the purest white blooms 
which very closely resemble double stocks. This new double variety 
lasts several weeks in flower and is quite fragrant, having an agreeable spicy 
odor. Like its parent, the single form, the foliage is a silvery gray color 
and makes a solid mat of attractive foliage which is evergreen. One of the 
most desirable plants for rockeries and for planting in the foreground of the- 
erbaceous border. (See illustration below..
