PHLOX (continued) 
*Camlaensus. This is reported to be a 
cross between Phlox Subulata Rosea 
and Phlox Amoena and is quite the 
lovliest dwarf phlox in existence today. 
The flowers are large and completely 
cover the plant, which grows about 8" 
high, in bloom in May and June. Love¬ 
ly with tulips and a gem in the rock 
garden or as an edging plant for walks 
or beds. 
*subulata nivalis sylvestris. A strong 
compact growing type, producing rosy 
red flowers of huge size in abundance. 
It is the most brilliant Subulata Phlox 
in existence to date. We are sure this 
plant will be very popular as soon as 
it is better known. We recommend that 
you give it a fair trial this year. 
SPIREA 
Venusta. (Lobata). Commonly called 
Martha Washington Plume, also King’s 
Plume. A Noble plant growing about 
four feet high, producing in July and 
August handsome rosy carmine flowers 
which are delightfully fragrant. A de¬ 
desirable plant for the border or along 
a small brook. 
TALINIUM 
*Calycinum (Cherry Sunbright). A hardy 
perennial succulent, with root tubers, 
which when in bloom are a compen¬ 
dium of delight. Try it in any hot dry 
place, full sun always, for an all¬ 
summer display of color brilliance. The 
blossoms, of luminous cherry-rose, are 
in airy sprays on stems so fine as to 
be near-invisible. Attractive foliage, 
succulent and brittle. 
VERONICA 
tBlue Spires. Far superior to the well 
known Spicata. Growing two feet high, 
its lovely deep blue spikes show up well 
in the hardy border. The foliage is 
clean and plant is of bushy, up¬ 
right habit and flowers throughout the 
early summer. A fine new introduction 
of real merit, and a plant which does 
withstand hot and dry weather with¬ 
out suffering. Altogether a very worth¬ 
while border plant. 
*incana rosea. Silvery foliage and showy 
Pink flowers during July and August, 
1 ft. 
♦Spicata alba nana. A most pleasing form 
of Veronica spicata alba, growing only 
8" high. Its pure white flowers are 
nicely offset by its dark green foliage. 
Good for edging and the rock garden. 
June - July.
