Veronica 
Blue 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, upright habit 
and flowers throughout the early summer. A fine new introduction 
of real merit, and a plant which does withstand hot and dry 
weather without suffering. Altogether a very worth-while border 
plant. Three, $1.40; doz., $4.00; 100, $25.00. 
Erica. A heather-like Speedwell with delicate pink flowers. June- 
July. 8 to 12 inches. Three, $1.10; doz., $3.30; 100, $20.00. 
Longifolia subsessilis. 2 feet. July to September. One of the handsomest 
blue-flowering plants. Perfectly hardy and increases in strength and 
beauty each year. Spikes completely studded with beautiful blue 
flowers; fine for cutting and one of the best plants for the hardy 
border. Three, $1.40; doz., $4.00; 100, $25.00. 
Rupestris, Heavenly Blue. The same habit as Rupestris or Rupestris 
alba; prostrate; does well in full sun or light shade. Lovely in the 
rockery or at base of shrubbery. Completely covered with heavenly 
blue flowers in late May or early June. Three, $1.40; doz., $4.00; 
100, $25.00. 
Spicata. Long spikes of violet-blue flowers all summer; a very fine 
variety for the middle of the hardy border. For best results lift and 
divide every three years and fertilize well with bone meal. Plant 
erows about 24 inches tall. Three, 95c; doz., $3.00; 100, $18.00. 
Spicata alba. Long spikes of snowy white flowers. Three, 95c; doz., 
$3.00; 100, $18.00. 
Spicata rubra. Rather misnamed because the flowers are a pinkish 
lavender and not red tinted as the name implies. Habit of plant is 
fine, erect and stately as well as very free-flowering. Excellent for 
in front of the border. Three, $1.40; doz., $4.00; 100, $25.00. 
True Blue. Literally covers itself with blossoms of intense blue. 12 
inches. June-July flowering. Three, $1.10; doz., $3.30; 100, $20.00.
