WM. BORSCH & SON, Maplewood, Oregon 
BOCCONIA cordata —(Plume Poppy) Glau¬ 
cous leaves, heart-shaped and deeply 
veined. Creamy white flowers in great 
plumy masses on 5 to 8 ft. stalks during 
July and Aug. The seed vessels are also 
very attractive. 25c each. 
BOYKINIA *jamesi —Probably the most bril¬ 
liant of the Saxifrages. The compact 
mounds of neatly overlapped deep green 
foliage are covered with masses of bright 
rose pink flowers on 6 inch stems, during 
spring and early summer. Very rare. 50c 
each. 
CALCEOLARIA —These hardy Calceolarias 
are very pretty in the alpine garden, re¬ 
quiring shade during the hottest part of 
the summer and a moist, well-drained 
peaty soil. 
♦John Innes —A hybrid of polyrrhiza, but 
with large golden slippers which are 
speckled red, on 8 inch stems. Rare, and 
stock limited. 50c each. 
♦polyrrhiza —A creeping species from Pata¬ 
gonia with bright yellow slipper-like flow¬ 
ers on 6 inch stems from June to Aug. 
35c each. 
CALTHA *palustris — (Marshmarigold) 
Bright yellow flowers on 10 inch stems. 
For damp places, either sun or shade. 
25c each. 
CAMPANULA—Alpine species —This family 
gives the alpine garden some of its most 
beautiful and worthy subjects. Practi¬ 
cally all enjoy a little shade and soil 
which is gritty and well drained. Their 
flowering period extends from early May 
to November. 
♦abietina — Forms wide mats of narrow¬ 
leaved brilliant green rosettes from 
which arise very fine stems a foot or so, 
carrying wide open solid stars of violet. 
Requires frequent division and light, 
stony soil. 25c each. 
♦arvatlca —A very rare species from the 
limiest crevices and screes in Spain. 
Forms wide mats from which rise slen¬ 
der 2 to 4 inch stems with lovely violet 
stars. A very stony soil, with leaf mold 
and lime. June to Sept. 50c each. 
♦barbata —A true perennial if given a poor, 
gritty soil, well-drained. Silvery-blue 
bearded bells on 8 to 12 inch stems. May 
to July. 25c each. 
♦calaminthifolia — A monocarpic species 
forming rosettes of coarsely dentate and 
slightly hairy leaves. Numerous white 
or pink erect, bell-shaped flowers are 
borne singly or on short auxiliary branch- 
lets on prostrate stems. Despite its 
monocarpic character the species is at¬ 
tractive and well worth growing. Sun or 
light shade, in gritty soil. 35c each. 
♦carpatica—Tufts up to a foot across, with 
large open bells of blue on 6 to 10 inch 
stems. Easy and indestructible. June to 
Aug. 25c each. 
♦carpatica alba —White flowering form of 
preceding. 25c each. 
♦carpatica nana —A very dwarf and com¬ 
pact form of this species with large lav¬ 
ender blue flowers on 3 to 4 inch stems. 
In our opinion one of the most beautiful 
rock garden Campanula, comparing very 
favorably with C. raineri in beauty and 
being much more tractable in the gar¬ 
den. 50c each. 
♦cochlearifolia — Formerly listed as C. 
pusilla. Strong grower, making large 
dense mats of fine foliage, with nodding 
bells of lavender blue on 3 to 4 inch 
stems. June to Aug. 25c each. 
♦cochlearifolia alba —White flowering form 
of the preceding. 25c each. 
♦dasyantha — Also known as C. pilosa. 
Forms tufts like C. allioni but that the 
long narrow leaves are sharply toothed. 
The broad bells of lavender blue, large 
and solid as in C. raineri, but bearded 
outside with a fluff of fine hairs, come 
singly on slender 6 inch stems. Stony, 
open soil. 75c each. 
♦excisa — Rather frail-looking in growth, 
but makes wide mats if planted in gritty 
soil and given a little water. The long, 
narrow-tubed bells of blue have punched- 
out hole at the base of each segment. 
50c each. 
♦garganica — Compact rosettes of glossy 
foliage, from which spread branches 10 
to 15 inches long, covered with an abun¬ 
dance of light blue, star-shaped flowers, 
with a small white eye. June to Oct. 
25c each. 
♦glomerata acaulis —Large clusters of rich 
violet flowers on 3 to 6 inch stems, from 
May to Aug. Very dwarf and compact. 
25c each. 
♦isophylla alba —A beautiful trailing plant 
with large white saucer-shaped flowers, 
Aug. to Oct. Well-drained, gritty soil. 
35c each. 
♦isophylla mayi —Has foliage rather grey¬ 
ish with down and flowers of lavender 
blue. 50c each. 
♦lasiocarpa —A very rare Japanese species 
from the high rocky mountains of Kam¬ 
chatka and Arctic America. The leaves 
are spoon shaped, oblong and pointed 
and all clearly toothed or even gashed 
with long and definite sharp teeth. The 
large erect bluebells, wide and opulent, 
are carried singly on 6 inch stems. A 
well drained gritty soil. June to Sept. 
50c each.
