PERENNIAL 
One of the lovelier of the Columbines, with 18-inch plants 
which produce numerous large, well-shaped, drooping flowers 
carried on rigid stems. The sepals are clear blue, the corolla 
pure white. A marvelously beautiful flower, suitable for 
general garden use. Pkt. 50 cts. 
Achillea aseratifolia 
PERENNIAL 
One of those dwarf perennials that we are forever seeking 
for the rock-garden. This one has narrow, comb-like, downy 
leaves forming fine gray-white cushions, above which appear 
fairly large pure white flower-heads in profusion from March 
to May. Give it a sunny, warm position with loose, well- 
drained soil. Pkt. 75 cts.

Aster, Giant Comet, 
Illusion 
(Wilt-resistant) 
/s^\ Recommended, All-Amer- 
(j^ica Selections. Another 
Aster which is able to resist 
the terrible wilt disease. The 
plants grow about 2 feet tall, 
branch from the ground up, and 
every branch is tipped with a 
medium-sized, loosely double 
flower of soft apricot-pink. As 
the plant is just one huge bou¬ 
quet, a good way to use it is to 
cut the plant off at the ground 
as it comes into full bloom. 
Arranged in a large vase, one 
plant makes a unique and 
pleasing decoration. Pkt.

Aster with an amber-yellow center. Pkt. 50 cts., 5 pkts. $2. 
Aster, Improved Crego, Enchantress (Wilt-resistant) 
Recommended, 1938 All-America Selections. Here is a 
great big fluffy Aster of an exquisite shade of salmon- 
rose on a wilt-resistant plant. A real Aster advance. It 
is one of the finest Asters for cutting we have ever seen. 
The flowers are large, the stems are long, and the delicate 
color is one that is easy to use. Pkt. 50 cts. 
Arabis alpina. Snow Cap 
PERENNIAL 
A noteworthy improvement over the regular Arahis 
alpina. The numerous pure white flowers form a dense 
mass above the foliage, producing a white cushion effect 
like little drifts of snow. An early spring bloomer for the 
rock-garden or for planting on slopes. Grows 8 inches high.
