THAT DOUBLE TRILLIUM 
Double trilliums seem to be very desirable, judging from the

be successfully sent, packed in moss. Plant in your woodland garden, 
in good leafmold. $5 each.

Mostly vine maple, Oregon maple, Garry oak, Oregon ash, madrona.

I have some small daffodils, unregistered seedlings, which are
