Lupines, Russell —3-4 ft. Like every¬ 
body else, we were enthused last year when 
reading about this new strain. But we are 
sorry to say that they do not seem to be 
happy with us and practically every report 
we have had agrees with us. Without 
question, the flowers are magnificent, but 
the plants are very temperamental and 
difficult to say the least. Each 40c. 
Scabiosa,' Fischer’s —2J^ft. This magni¬ 
ficent new flower is pictured on the front 
cover. The glorious violet-blue flowers are 
large, often 2J^ to 3 inches across, and

so is hardy and easy to grow. Each 40c,

of distinction to any bouquet. Everybody 
loves it when they see it. Each 50c, 3 for 
$1.25. 
Shasta Daisy, Esther Read— 2 ft. This 
new and very scarce variety is so double 
that it has no golden center at all but is 
pure white from edge to edge. As a cut 
flower it is superb and it has a tendency 
to bloom so freely that the flowers should 
be cut often to relieve the strain on the 
plant. One of the finest of all white per¬ 
ennials. Each 75c, 3 for ^.00. 
Vinca Minor— 3 inches. Perhaps you 
have some places under your trees where 
grass does not do well. Here is a plant that 
will thrive there. It will form a thick

have trouble keeping grass on a bank, use 
this plant. For quick effect, plant them 24 
to 36 inches apart and they will soon make 
a perfect mat. Each 25c, 6 for $1.00, 15 
for $ 2 . 00 .
