Tigridias 
The Tigridias are charming little flowers, grown from bulbs; they always 
attract attention: their foliage resembles that of the Gladiolus, but their delicate 
cup-shaped flowers, with outer edges folded back, have a beauty all their own; 
they grow about 2 feet high with flowers on top of the spike, and bloom best 
in July and August. They require about the same treatment as Gladiolus.

Ground Cover Plants 
EUONYMOUS 
These Euonymous make particularly desirable 
ground cover plants because of their dark-green, 
dense evergreen foliage. They are very hardy and 
do well in sun or shade. 
Kewensis (Miniature Wintercreeper) — This creeper 
has very small dark-green foliage, which gives 
it a very delicate appearance; fine for the 
rockery or as a ground cover; this will no doubt 
be a very popular variety after it is better 
known. Plants in 2V2-inch pots — Each 25c. 
Plants in 4-inch pots — Each 50c 
Radicans Colorata (Bronze Wintercreeper) — A rath¬ 
er new variety; has deep-green foliage in sum¬ 
mer changing to bright red and bronze in fall

deep-green rounded leaves; orange-red berries 
in fall. 2-year plants — Each 75c

pecially valuable for shady places. This plant

VINCA MINOR —TRAILING MYRTLE

ground cover under shrubs or trees, or on graves
