*CUP FLOWER (Nierembergia Hippomanica). A quite wonderful new 
perennial growing to a height of 4 or 6 inches and spreading to about 1 
foot. Through the whole summer and fall the graceful, bright green foliage 
is hidden by a mass of blue cup-shaped flowers. One of the busiest and 
most useful plants we have grown. Gal. containers. 
CUPHEA

tubular flowers and dense bronzy-green foliage will thrill you. Plant in a pro¬ 
tected, sunny location. Grows to 2V2 feet. 2V4-inch pots; gal. containers. 
Hyssopiiolia. A trim little plant for borders. May be pruned into a dense 6 to 8- 
inch hedge, for which purpose the plants should be spaced 8 inches apart.

are quite small. Foliage dense. Covered with minute lavender flowers most of 
the year. Grows to one foot. Plant in sun. 214-inch pots; gal. containers.

DAY LILY (Hemerocallis). We don't see how anyone can help but be 
enthusiastic over these colorful perennials. They are hardy to frost, easily 
grown and if an assortment of varieties is planted there will be hardly a

blooms. Their long, slender, arching leaves prepare a perfect setting for 
lily-like flowers that are borne in great abundance. Prefer sun.
