WHOLESALE LIST FOR FLORISTS, LANDSCAPERS AND NURSERYMEN 
The Columbines are among the most elegant and beautiful hardy plants, 
producing their graceful long-spurred flowers on stems rising two feet or 
more above the beautifully divided foliage, and should be planted wherever 
their presence will serve to lighten up a too stiff and formal planting. 
Taken as a whole they are one of the most important parts of the hardy 
garden. The following varieties are all suitable for cutting and are attrac¬ 
tive when used with other flowers.

ing dark blue flowers. A beautiful short

garden soil both in sun and shade. 18 to

Dwarf Varieties For The

perhaps the best for that purpose. They 
are, of course, for border plantings as 
well.

erect growing variety with large snow

four feet. August-September. A peren¬

the best all around decorative plants. Its 
bright silver-colored stems and foliage 
are of great value as a filler for bou¬ 
quets, sprays, baskets, or all sorts of

stems it is very valuable in the winter 
for filler. It is a showy plant in the 
perennial border or among shrubbery.
