Tritonia 
TRITOMA 
'llollius 
I 
Trollius, with their pleasing shades of 
large yellow and orange flowers, provide 
a real show in May. In favorable loca¬ 
tions they develop into good sized clumps, 
each producing from 12 to 25 flowers. Our 
varieties are fully acclimated and will 
thrive in ordinary garden soil. However, 
they require a great deal of moisture. 
Therefore, for best results, we recommend 
that in dry weather you water them two 
or three times each week while they are 
in flower. We ship good strong field 
grown plants of a size that will give you 
satisfactory results the first year after 
planting.

HARDY VINCA 
Every year the Hardy Vinca or Trailing 
Myrtle enjoys a very good demand. This 
is' due of course to their beautiful glossy, 
evergreen foliage. Where nothing else 
will grow on sloapy land or side hills in 
partial or dense shade or in open sun¬ 
shine, the Vincas will always make a very 
desirable ground cover and they also pro¬ 
duce flowers. Florists who have ceme¬ 
tery business can make good use of Vincas 
for planting on graves, also in vases and 
hanging baskets. A nice planting of these 
is always profitable. We list here a very 
good assortment at reasonable prices.

VINCA RUBRA FLORA PLENA 
This is a new importation and we have 
grown it in our nurseries during the last 
year. It has the appearance of a very 
strong growing type, carrying a heavy 
setting of foliage from the crown to the 
tip of the branches. The double flower.^ 
are a striking mahogany red. We have 
every reason to believe that as soon as 
this Vinca is generally available it will 
become very popular.
