Shasta Daisy, Esther Reed Hemerocallis, Hyperion 
Dicentra oregana. 1 ft. A rare native plant from the Siskiyou mountains 
on the West Coast is this delightful relative of the familiar bleeding-heart. 
Although similar in growth to the plumy bleeding-heart, its flowers are 
creamy white with purple tips. Dr. Gabrielson has described the foliage 
as “silver-plated.” Partial shade, where the soil is moist and rich in leaf- 
mold, will make an ideal location for this unusual perennial. May to Aug. 
40 cts. each; $3.50 per 10. 
Geum, Golden West. 2 ft. Pure golden yellow is an apt description for 
this new Geum hybrid. The large blooms are produced freely on sturdy 
stems which rise well above the rosettes of rich green foliage. June, July. 
35 cts. each; $3.00 per 10. 
Heliopsis incomparabilis, Summer Gold. 214 ft. Here is an outstanding 
summer-blooming perennial with large, yellow, semi-double blooms, some¬ 
what resembling zinnias. Invaluable for its long period of bloom and its 
drought-resistance. July to Oct. 50 cts. each; $4.50 per 10. 
Helleborus niger. 1 ft. Better known as the Christmas Rose, this evergreen 
perennial deserves to be more widely grown in New England gardens. Give 
it a sheltered location in partial shade. Rich, moist, well-drained soil suits 
it best. The plants need a thorough soaking during dry spells, and especially 
in the late fall before it blooms. Cover it in the late autumn with a window- 
sash and you will enjoy an abundance of flowers from late October till 
Christmas. Oct. to Jan. Large, flowering-size plants, $1.00 each; $9.00 per 10. 
Hemerocallis, Hyperion. 3 ft. An extraordinary hybrid Day-Lily. The 
large, soft canary-yellow flowers have distinctive waxy-textured petals and 
a pleasing fragrance. July, Aug. 60 cts. each. 
Heuchera, Queen of Hearts. 1to 2 ft. A real achievement is this new 
variety with its unusually large bells of intense red. June, July. 50 cts. 
each; $4.50 per 10. 
Liatris scariosa alba. 3 to 4 ft. This new white form of our native Blazing 
Star is a welcome addition to the late summer garden and an ideal cut- 
flower. A striking accent plant, it sends forth sturdy spikes of white, fluffy, 
button-like flowers closely set on the stems. Aug., Sept. 35 cts. each; 
$3.00 per 10. 
Shasta Daisy, Esther Reed. l }/2 ft. A real double Shasta Daisy with a 
well-developed, white, crested center. This is one of the choicest items in 
our Catalogue. Grow the plants in full sun and, if possible, in rich, well- 
drained soil. June to Sept. 50 cts. each; $4.50 per 10.
