Rare Alpine and Hardy Plants 
DISTINCTIVE NEW FLOWERS 
FOR 1941 
FUCHSIA 
“SCARLET BEAUTY”’ 
Picture a plant with as many as 30 to 40 three-foot stems, which from 
mid-June until frost bear thousands of 14-inch long flowers of a brilliant 
scarlet rose with corolla of mulberry purple, and you have an idea of this 
fot sensation. Propagation rights reserved. Each 65c., per three 
HEUCHERA 
“SPITFIRE”’ 
An improved, sanguinea type which comes from one of Europe’s leading 
horticulturists. Large, scarlet red bells which have a luminous quality 
held on erect 18-inch stems. A small group in the garden gives a vivid 
show during the Summer. Each 35c., per three 90c. 
PHLOX SUBULATA 
“DIXIE BRILLIANT” 
This brilliant, new dwarf is the finest red yet developed. Extra large, 
half-dollar size flowers of gay, rosy crimson in such quantities they hide the 
dense, mossy green foliage. Each 30c., per three 75c. 
PRIMULA HELENIAE 
A Spring flowering gem that captivates on sight. In late April the lush 
green, compact foliage is smothered with countless rich purple flowers, 
brightly marked with a yellow eye. Equally as hardy as the Polyanthus 
type, Primula Heleniae is bound to be one of our most important and useful 
rock plants. Highly recommended. Each 35c., per three 90c. 
PULMONARIA RUBRA 
“SALMON GLORY”’ 
This distinct dwarf novelty is aglow with color in the early Spring. 
Bluebell shaped flowers of a glorious soft salmon rose. Particularly effec- 
tive when used with the rich blue Pulmonaria angustifolia. Recommended 
for a partially shaded spot in the garden. Each 35c., per three 90c. 
PYRETHRUM 
CHOICE DOUBLES 
This Fall we will have the following named Painted Daisies to offer— 
““Buckeye’’, the finest double red of all; ‘‘Florence Shadley’’, an extra 
large anemone-crested type in a glowing shade of shell pink; ‘‘Trojan’’, a 
semi-double scarlet of perfect form; and ‘‘Sylvia’’, a blush white double 
formed with quilled petals which make it especially graceful. Orders 
accepted for Fall 1941 delivery only. Stock limited. Each 40c., per three 
$1.00. 
SHASTA DAISY 
“ESTHER READ”’ 
We consider this the finest double Shasta Daisy. The large, pure white 
flowers resemble heavily crested Pyrethrums held on stocky 18-inch stems. 
Unlike most double Shastas, ‘‘Esther Read”’ is perfectly formed and has a 
regal bearing. Each 40c., per three $1.00. 
SPIREA 
FILIPENDULA FL. PL. 
An old favorite, but still very scarce. Handsome fern-like, deep green 
foliage with gorgeous plumes of fluffy clear white, double flowers on erect 
18-inch stems. This true stock belongs to the hardy plant aristocracy. 
Each 35c., per three 90c. 
TRADESCANTIA 
“IRIS PRICHARD” 
Another grand introduction released by the U. S. Division of Plant 
Exploration and Introduction. The large flowers are a lavender white, 
ribbed with lilac blue. The shapely plant is in bloom from early Summer 
well into the late Autumn. When used with the other English Trades- 
cantias ‘‘Purple Dome” and ‘‘Blue Stone”, it is especially effective. Each 
30c., per three 75c., per ten $2.00. 
35 


Pentstemon, “Garnet” 
PENTSTEMON, ‘‘GARNET”’ 
This large flowered Gloxinea-like Pentstemon is the first “of7a new, hardy 
strain. The rich garnet colored flowers are gracefully placed on 12-inch to 
18-inch stems and make excellent cut flowers as well as adding a glowing 
touch to the garden. Each 35c., per three 90c.
