nursery where you will see the complete collection.

most of the year with bright lovable little flowers of clearest blue 
with a yellow disk in the center. Sun or partial shade. Plants out 
of flats, 20c per doz.; pots, $1.00 per doz.; gal cans, 25c each. 
AGERATUM MIDGET BLUE (Mexican Floss Flower): This year 
we are able to offer you this entirely new Ageratum, in plants. 
These are cutting-grown plants from the original parents of this 
marvelous large-flowered, low growing variety. If you are looking 
for blue for your garden or pot plant collection, this is one you 
can’t afford to be without. Plants in 2%-inch pots, 10c each, 
$1.00 per dozen; larger plants in 4-inch pots, 25c each, $2.50 
per dozen.

in spring and early summer with golden yellow flowers. Very 
showy. Full sun.

has large nearly round leaves and beautiful sprays of blue forget- 
me-not flowers in early summer. Give it some shade. 
ANEMONE JAPONICA (Windflower): Particularly well suited 
to the shaded areas of your garden. It attains a height of 4 to 6 
feet. In August and September the great umbles of large daisy¬ 
like flowers make a wonderful show.

ANEMONE QUEEN CHARLOTTE—Semi-double, medium pink. 
ANEMONE ROSEA SUPERBA—Rosy Pink. 
Plants in 4-inch pots, 35c each. 
AQUILEGIA (Columbine) : The Colorado state flower. Because 
of the fact that it is native to every state in the Union the colum¬ 
bine is probably the best known of all of the perennials. Hybrid¬ 
ists have worked wonders with this flower and today we have 
many fine varieties and the color range is unlimited. 
Double flowered varieties in mixed colors only. 
Long spurred, improved Mrs. Scott Elliott strain in shades of 
blue, pink, yellow, orange and scarlet. 
The new clematiflora variety is very pleasing with its large 
beautiful flowers that closely resemble the clematis. Plants^ in flats 
by the doz., 30c; potted plants, 10 each; larger flowering size 
plants in 1-gallon containers or large field clumps at 30c each. 
Plant aquilegia in partial shade in the valleys. It will stand 
full sun near the coast.

inches tall, covered most of the year with beautiful daisy-like 
flowers 2 to 3 inches across. Usually the flowers are a bright 
yellow, orange and gold, although some have pink, lavender 
purple and white shades. It likes full sun, porous soil and not 
too much water. One-gallon containers, 35c each.

shiny, finely cut foliage and is completely covered in April, May, 
and June with masses of single aster flowers. Good for a sunny 
location. Plants in 4-inch pots, 35c each; plants in 1-gallon con¬ 
tainers, 50c each.

asters. From June until December this bushy plant will produce 
continually and in abundance, large lavender-blue aster-like 
flowers. It makes a very good cut flower. Plants in 4-inch pots, 
35c each. 
CAMPANULA ISOPHYLLA: One of the finest perennial basket 
plants in existence. All through the late summer and fall these 
plants produce long cascades of purest white flowers. A well

sight. Plants in 3-inch pots, 25c each; plants in 4-inch pots, 35c 
each.

Bells): See picture on page 26. A wonderful biennial. It grows
