Garnet 
A Beautiful All-Summer Blooming 
Cut Flower 
This is the first of a new strain of 
hardy large-flowering Pentstemons. 
Heretofore, the only large-flowering 
hybrid Pentstemons available were the 
Gloxinoides which are not hardy in 
the North. Pentstemon Garnet is of 
spreading habit and produces a suc- 
cession of bloom from June until 
stopped by frost. The gloxinia-like 
flowers are a rich garnet color, and 
are gracefully placed on stems 12 to 
18 inches tall. The plants have from 
six to a dozen spikes continually 
throughout its flowering season. The 
flowers are excellent for cutting and 
last a week or more in water. This 
new large-flowered variety has been 
growing in our nursery and several 
test gardens for 3 years. It has been 
left unprotected during three winters 
without showing any signs of frost 
damage. Three, $1.50; doz., $4.50; 
100, $30.00. 


Giant September Glory Giant White Spire 
Giant Liatris 
September Glory. A giant 6-foot spike solidly covered 
with purple flowers from top to bottom. The flowers, 
unlike the common variety, come into bloom all at the 
same time, creating a marvelous effect. A splendid 
improvement over the old variety. Late flowering, 
September. Three, $1.50; doz., $4.50; 100, $30.00. 
White Spire. A magnificent pure white Gayfeather. 
Just as tall as the September Glory from which this 
variety is a sport. Superb for a bold effect in the 
garden as well as a stunning flower for cutting. Each, 
65c; doz., $6.50. 

Carnation 
Crimson King 
Here is an outstanding hardy Carnation 
for the garden, flowering throughout 
spring, summer, and fall, not shyly but 
with remarkable freedom. Dazzling crim- 
son flowers on stiff, stocky stems, long 
enough for cutting. It is exceptionally 
hardy growing anywhere. Three, $1.40; 
doz., $4.00; 100, $25.00.
