STREPT OCA R PUS 
DIANTKUS ARENARIUS — erdx(2)6. Wide-spreading, 
silvery-green, mossy foliage mats, always delightful. Fringy. 
fragrant, creamy blossoms. Established plants assume 
picturesquely irregular forms. Charming in the rock 
garden. Illustrated above. Pkt. 15c. 
PRIMULA ROSEA—rmsth(2)9. Big clusters of sparkling 
carmine bloom. Illustrated above. A splendid species. Likes 
cool soil, and will not survive drought. Slow germinating. 
Pkt. 15c. 
ASTILBE KOREANA—erbli(3)18. A delightful species, 
with flower-plumes of remarkable size and weight, yet feath¬ 
ery-airy in effect. The bloom opens pearl white, with deli¬ 
cate opal-lavender suffusions, the whole aging to cream. 
Unusually adaptable, thriving anywhere, from dry, high, 
banks, to the mud of the bog garden. Pkt. 20c. 
AQUILE01A JONESI 
Bwarfest of the Columbines; a rare gem. Close-clustered 
lacy, silvery leaves, with one great spurless flower of radiant 
blue above. Altogether it may not be over two inches high; 
it is rarely over six. A scarce species of lonely mountain 
peaks. 4 seeds for 15c; 7 seeds for 25c. 
THE POPPY MALLOW 
It is Callirhoe papaver, with blossoms that are great gor¬ 
geous cups of crimson claret, built of torn-edged petals. For 
many months it will make a brilliant showing in full sun; 
wide-spreading, more flower than foliage. Lasts well when 
cut. Winter-hardy. rcy(k)(8)12. Illustrated, outside page. 
Pkt. 15c. 
HYPERICUM HOOKERIANUM 
A splendid St. John’s-Wort for the perennial border, hardy 
in Vermont. The plants are compact globes, excellently 
foliaged, and set with an immense number of big bright 
yellow blossoms, tassel-stamened. We like this species for 
its long spread of lively golden bloom in late summer and 
early autumn. Pkt. 15c. 
BLUE TISRIDIA OR PINE LILY 
Though Eustylis purpurea is not truly a Tigridia, it is a 
close relative, and often so-called. The blossoms are formed 
in shell-like Tigridia fashion, but a bit smaller, and more 
gracefully spreading. The petal-coloring is a rich blue-violet, 
marked with mahogany and patched with gold. Sown in late 
autumn or very early spring, (while soil is cool), it will 
flower nicely first year. The bulbs should be dug in October 
and stored in sand over winter, just as one would care for 
Tigridias. Blooming season covers several months. *euf

PAPAVER FLORIBUNDUM 
Noble pyramids cf bloom in excellent deep orange, a rich 
shade. Immensely floriferous, more so than any other Hardy 
Poppy. Long in bloom. Particularly good, and highly dis¬ 
tinct. Sometimes monocarpic. Pkt. 15c.
