PUl&X, Sukulatci Creeping Phlox 
These dwarf creeping Phloxes are some of the first flowers to brighten the landscape 
in the spring. Because of their low growth, spreading habits, and vivid colors, they are 
especially fine for rock garden work. They are used extensively to put into terrace 
plantings, where dotted in among other plants, they are exceedingly bright and effective. 
Extensively used for planting about the base of the stone in cemetery work. Height, 
4 to 6 inches. The new varieties are extremely fine. 
ATROPURPUREA. This is the richest and most brilliant of all of this type of Phlox. The 
color is a deep carmine-red. This variety is used for cemetery planting. The long rows 
of Atropurpurea in our fields at this time (May 20th) are attracting travelers from a 
distant highway who come to see what these red streaks appearing so early could be. 
ALBA. Absolutely pure white. The plant has a tendency to grow into a perfectly round 
little plant from 1 foot to 18 inches in diameter and when in bloom it is just one solid 
mass of pure white. 
LILACINA. A very strong growing creeping variety that forms a solid carpet with its 
rich light green glossy foliage. Completely covered with delicate lavender flowers, 
with a circle of little dark blue dots at the base of the petals. Foliage remains lovely 
all winter under the snow. 
MOERHEIM. Here is indeed a real acquisition to our list of new Phlox Subulata which 
we are building up. It is a very much enlarged and improved Rosea. The individual 
flowers are much larger, the petals bigger, the color richer, and the eye much more 
prominent. 50c each for division 
ROSEA. A deep uniform rose color, with a circle of minute carmine dots at the base of 
the petals. Forms a very compact uniform shaped plant and is very effective. 
Phlox Subulata 
VIVID. A small blossom of the brightest imaginable clear pink with a very clearly defined 
small vivid deep red eye. This little Phlox is very choice and is especially desirable 
where a refined little plant is wanted.

BLEEDING HEART (Dicentra Spectabilis). This is one of the old-time flowers from 
grandmother’s garden, of which we will never tire. The flowers, which are pink with 
a white center and heart-shaped, come in long, graceful, drooping racemes. Foliage is 
fernlike and dainty. A valuable flower for planting in the shade. Very hardy and lives 
year after year. Grows 1 to 2 feet tall and blooms in May. 
Large clumps undivided, 50c; 6 for $2.50 
Nice large divisions, 25c; 6 for $1.25 
PLATYCODON (Balloon Flower). A splendid flower for the rock garden. Very hardy. 
Neat, upright plants, covered with large blue bell-shaped flowers all summer. 
STATICE Latifolio (Sea Lavender). A great flower to dress bouquets with both sum¬ 
mer and winter. Long stems, which are fine for cutting, branch out into great heads 
18 inches across, made up of minute little blue flowers. 
SEDUM Spectabile, Brilliant. A sensational new Sedum. The plant has the appearance 
and habit of Spectabile but the flower is very different. Plant grows to a height of 
about 12 inches; each branch terminates in a great flat bloom 6 inches in diameter, 
made up of many little florets and of the most brilliant crimson. This should be in 
every garden. Should be planted in groups of about 3 plants. 
LILY-OF-THE-VALLEY. Nice to plant in shady places under trees or about the house 
where the sun seldom reaches. Also very fine for the rockery. Take little room but 
are always there and furnish many little sprays of sweetly perfumed flowers. These 
clumps may be broken apart. Clumps, 3 to 5 shoots, 3 for 75c; doz., $3.00 
HOLLYHOCKS (Brand’s Superb Doubles). The great flower to plant in mass at the 
rear of the garden as a background. Double hollyhocks are much more satisfactory 
than the singles. We have a beautiful strain in Double White, Red, Yellow, and 
Newport Pink—the best pink. In mixture, we do not have the colors separate. 
GYPSOPHILA (Baby’s Breath) Bristol Fairy. Double, white, and fully three times as 
large as the old-fashioned variety. The growth of the plant is vigorous and repeats its 
blooming throughout the summer. Great cut flower. Height, 3)4 feet. 50c each 
G. paniculata (Baby’s Breath). When in bloom covered with minute pure white flowers, 
having a beautiful gauze-like appearance. Much used to trim baskets of other flowers 
and for winter bouquets. Each, 25c; 6 for $1.00 
We do not carry many Roses, for, as a rule, they are 
disappointing in this state, but we do offer a few kinds 
that are hardy here. 
AMELIA GRAVEREAUX. A new Hybrid Rugosa, that 
after thoroughly testing out, seems to be about the 
very best in a large double pink. 
CRIMSON RAMBLER. A very bright crimson that 
comes in great clusters of little very double Roses. 
One of the very best climbers. 
DOROTHY PERKINS. Another hardy climber that has 
proved one of our best pinks. Very floriferous and 
beautiful. 
EXCELSA. Another double profuse blooming rich red 
climber that does surprisingly well in this climate. 
F. J. GROOTENDORST (Baby Rambler). Rugosa 
Cross. True rugosa foliage. Double, bright crimson, 
borne in large clusters like the Baby Rambler, from 
May continuously until November. One of the most 
valuable of all Roses in the North. In the colder parts 
of the country it is hard to get a continuous bloom pf 
Roses, but these Grootendorst Roses are true ever- 
bloomers. The old blossoms should be kept trimmed 
out as they pass and the bushes will be covered with a 
mass of clusters of little Roses an inch or more in 
diameter of a brilliant red all summer, way up to frost. 
HARRISON'S YELLOW. One of the old-time double 
yellow Roses, that is perfectly hardy and a most pro¬ 
fuse and dependable bloomer. 
SIR THOMAS LIPTON. This is the best of the white 
hybrid rugosa Roses. A fine double white with large- 
sized bloom. Beautiful glossy leaves. All these ru- 
gosas are fine for hedges.
