"CORAL FLOWER 
A newer annual flower of exquisite, jewel-like daintiness 
and vivid colorings. Even the foliage is decorative; spoon- 
shaped leaves of thick, rich succulence. There are many 
stems, growing to some thirty inches, and bearing in loose 
alternate clusters, little five-pointed blossom stars of lumin¬ 
ous pink rosiness. Then come airy, long-hanging capsules, 
each like a bead of coral, polished to brilliancy, hundreds 
of them on each spire-like stem. Full sun. Easy, but seed 
waits until soil is warm, before sprouting. Illustrated, 
page 62. Pkt. 15c. 
It is rarely the long-planned enjoyments, but rather 
the sum of varied and unexpected little happinesses 
that make up pleasant living. The sky-bringing of 
a Gentian, a winter Dandelion against a wall, sweet 
piercing sound-thrills of a whistling Cardinal, trill 
of a Song-sparrow outside the window, sunset on 
snow, glory-flame of an autumn Maple, curling 
crests of salt waves, these balance a thousand sor¬ 
rows, change disappointments to a triumphancy 
beyond diminishing. Earth spreads its treasures 
before those who will see them.

CORONETS 
The Coronet-flowers are attractive both in blossom and in 
foliage, desirable at all times. Rather easy. 
21 CORONILLA CAPPADOCICA — ergx(2)6. Gold-stray. 
Here the blossoms are little golden coronets of pea-flovvers, 
carried in plentiful delight on the many straying trailers 
of over-lapping, richly green pinnate leafage. Were we 
building a thousand rock gardens, each would have this, 
yet it is still scarce and rare ; to most, a treasure still un¬ 
discovered. Pkt. 20c. (Plants, each 50c; 3 for $1.40). 
*CORONILLA CRETICA—erx(2-4)6. Though this pretty 
miniature may be but annual, it deserves the rock garden, 
for it is built to that scale, and has the true rock-haunting 
look about it. Dainty in stem, foliage and flower, these 
last little circlets of buff-suggesting pink. Drop a few 
seeds here and there in the rock garden each spring, wherever 
some miff may have gone to join its kind in miff-himmel.

winter hardiness. Attractive foliage in thick, mounded rug- 
trailers. Pretty crown-shaped clusters of blossoms in softest 
cosmos-pink. Easy to grow. May be used in the rock gar¬ 
den, but it is particularly to be recommended as a decorative 
cover for terraces, banks or to fill any space that might be 
otherwise in grass. It is not a turfing plant in the sense 
of simulating the appearance of grass, for it does not; never¬ 
theless it may, in wilder parts of the grounds, be better 
than grass, more enduring, more handsome, less needing of 
continuous care. It spreads well from the roots. Pkt. 10c; 
jV oz. 25c. (Plants, each 20c; 3 for 55c; 10 for $1.50; 25 
for $3.50).
