MISCELLANEOUS 
Plants furnished in fall or spring, seeds at any time. 
Hemerocallis, Queen of May. Deep rich yellow, verging on 
orange, the petals long and graceful. In bloom for about a month 
in early summer. A few stems of it arranged in a bouquet of del¬ 
phiniums give a brilliant effect. 20c, 3 for 50c, 5 or more at 15c. 
This is the only hemerocallis I have, but it is a good one. 
Verbena. A wild prairie flower, perennial, in bloom from early 
spring until winter. Pink, and exquisitely fragrant. Fine for the 
rock garden, as its feathery foliage hugs the ground. 15c. 
Yucca. A stately ornamental plant, with tall tree-shaped spike 
of milk-white flowers. 25c. 
Allium Scorodoprasum. Lavender-blue flower-ball on four-foot 
stem. The bulb is used in cooking by the French Canadians. Plant 
as late as possible. 10c, 3 for 25c. 
Hardy Cactus. This plant is a solid heavy cushion of closely- 
packed branched heads, nearly as large as a half-bushel basket. This 
summer it had more than 100 little blossoms at one time. Can also 
be grown indoors. Divisions, 15c each, 4 for 50c.

PEONIES 
Furnished in the fall only. 
Plants should be set as soon as received, placing so that the 
buds will be about two inches below the leveled surface of the soil 
when planting is completed. The roots must be kept moist until 
planted. Plants set out very late should be mulched. 
In the open field or garden, like com and potatoes, and with 
the same kind of care, peonies thrive rampantly. To be avoided are 
elms, maples, poplars, soggy ground, and manure or other litter in 
the soil.
