Digitalis—Foxglove 
Gypsophila Bodgeri 
GYPSOPHILA Bodgeri (Double Baby’s Breath). In a beautiful deli¬ 
cate shade of pink. Something very fine.

GYPSOPHILA, Bristol Fairy (Double Baby’s Breath). Pure white, 
small, double flowers larger and more beautiful than the single 
variety. Extremely tasty for bouquet work.

GYPSOPHILA paniculata. This is the single perennial Baby’s Breath 
so much used to trim bouquets of other flowers. Very fine for 
winter bouquets. 
HELENIUM Hoopesi. A tall growing plant very useful for its rich 
colored flowers in the fall. A single plant growing to a height of 
about 3 feet seems to carry a thousand blooms so covered is it with 
flowers. Rich mahogany and yellow. 
HEUCHERA sanguined splendens (Coralbells.) Bright vermilion-red. 
Nice in the rock garden and much used to trim bouquets. In 
bloom until late midsummer. 
LIATRIS spicata (Blazing Star or Gay Feather). Wonderful spikes 
about 3 feet in height covered with good clear purple flowers. 
LYTHRUM, Purple Loosestrife Mordeno. This is a new Lythrum 
brought out by the Canadian Experimental Farm at Morden, Man¬ 
itoba. We think it the best of all the Lythrum and a great im¬ 
provement over old types. Long upright growing stems just cov¬ 
ered their entire length with little deep bright rose-pink flowers. 
This is a good one. Showy plants for moist, shady borders, and 
watersides. Each 40c; 3 for #1.00; 100 for #20.00 
MERTENSIA virginica (Cowslip; Bluebells). One of the most fas¬ 
cinating plants of the early spring garden. Grows in either shade 
or full sun. Plants about 18 inches high covered with long trum¬ 
pet, bell-shaped flowers in a rich medium blue. 
PASQUE FLOWER (European). Odd, exquisite, reddish purple 
flowers with golden stamens borne on shaggy foliage stems, fol¬ 
lowed by feathery seed pods. This flower is an improved Crocus. 
One of the earliest and brightest of spring flowers. April-May. 
PENTSTEMON grandiflorum. The wild Pentstemon of Minnesota. 
Absolutely hardy. A beautiful border or rock garden plant. The 
plant is a compact mass of gray, heavy, leathery foliage. From this 
spring several tall flowering stalks lined with many lavender, trum¬ 
pet-shaped flowers resembling a foxglove. 
PLATYCODON (Balloon Flower). A very hardy perennial with 
large, one-half-inch, bell-shaped flowers in two colors. Either pure 
blue or pure white. 
PYRETHRUM, James Kelway (Painted Daisy). A fine deep scarlet 
variety with long stems, making it an ideal cutting kind. Tremen¬ 
dous bloomer. Comes into bloom in middle of May and lasts a 
long time. 
RUDBECKIA purpurea. The giant purple Coneflower. Attractive 
rosy purple flowers with a large brown, cone-shaped center. Blooms 
through July to frost. 
STATICE latifolia (Sea Lavender). A great flower to dress bouquets 
with, both summer and winter. Long stems, which are fine for 
cutting, branch out into great heads 18 inches across, made up of 
minute blue flowers. 
TRITOMA (Red Hot Poker). From August to October you can ex¬ 
pect large flowers of a rich scarlet-red borne on stems from 3 to 4 
feet high. Needs winter protection in severe climates. 
SIBERIAN IRIS 
The Siberian Irises are very graceful and are much used in landscape work as the plants with their 
rich, upright growth and grass-like foliage add very much materially to the beauty of any planting in 
which they are used. Wonderful to use about water pools, bird walks, etc. Perfectly hardy. 
In our show room we usually plant clumps of Siberian Iris around our bird baths. We receive more 
orders for this Siberian Iris from our visitors who see it in bloom than we often do during a whole 
season when we depend upon the descriptions in our catalog for our orders. Siberian Iris works nicely 
with other flowers for bouquet work.
