MERTENSIA virginica. Virginia Bluebells. 1 ft. 
<§> Native. Early foliage of an unusual shade of light 
green, above which are borne large clusters of blue 
flowers. It likes rich, open, fairly moist soil, and 
is found growing wild in woodland, but its flower¬ 
ing season is practically over before the tree foliage 
gives shade. Given satisfactory soil, it does well 
in garden or rockery. The plant has the fault of 
losing its foliage soon after flowering, so that in 
the garden it should be planted with some later- 
appearing companion plant or some ground-cover.
