21 ANARRHINUM BELLIDIFOLIUM—“*erbx(2-3)20. Blue 
Smoke. An easy and pretty perennial that blooms first year 
from seed if sown early. The blossoms are miniature blue 
Snapdragons, multitudinous in number, carried in many tall 
sprays. It gains the name of Blue Smoke from the effect 
of the airy, flower-filled racemes as they sway in the 
breeze. Dainty, delightful. Jilustrated page 22. Pkt. 15c; 
1/4, oz. 35c, (Plants, each 20c; 3 for 55c; 10 for $1.60.)

ANCHUSA or ALKANET 
¢ For easy and ecstatic blues, together with melting de- 
lights in cream and rose, one must seek the Anchusas. 
21 ANCHUSA AFFINIS—*ebx(2-4)40. It is the Alpine 
Alkanet, most graceful of Anchusas. Here is beauty in 
gracious curves, uncurling racemes set with white-centered 
stars of imperial violet. Flowers first season, sown early, 
but is perennially enduring. Illustrated page 22. Pkt. 10c;

sprays of mellow cream, soft primrose, palest blue suffu- 
sions, azure, indigo, black-violet, and rose. Scarce two 
plants alike. Perhaps most alluring will be those forms in 
which the blossom is soft pink, vividly re-starred with car- 
mine. Easy and quick; perennial, but flowers first year. 
Pkt. 20c. (Plants, each 30c.)

21 ANCHUSA RIPARIA—*ecbx(2-4)35. It is one of those 
intense blues, dark and rich, that yet give the illusion of 
reflecting light. Call it Forget-me-not blue, or ultramarine 
if you will, whatever term it may suggest to you, at least 
you may glory in its deep and glowing tone-purity. Sturdily 
upright plants, branching and a bit fountain-like at the top. 
A winter-hardy perennial at Philadelphia, but blooms almost 
as quickly as an annual from seed. Pkt. 15c; 1/1g oz. 30c; 
1% oz. 50c; % oz. 85c. (Plants, each 25c; 3 for 70c; 10

*ANCHUSA CAPENSIS BLUEBIRD—ebx(3)20. Here is 
another of those bright Forget-me-not blues that come in 
Anchusa, this time an annual, a very quick, very easy, 
very beautiful one. Don’t like that word ‘‘very’’ in most 
places, but believe it is three times justified here. The 
whole plant is topped with a close-packed constellation of 
the starry blue blossoms. Pkt. 5c; \% oz. 20c.

ANEMONE or WINDFLOWER 
Anemones thrive wonderfully in border or rock garden, 
and some kinds in woodland. The chalice-like blossoms are 
often set in soft ruffs of downy green, and after the petals 
have fallen, iridescent silken seed-tassels will, in many 
species, prolong the charm. Plants bloom in one year. Seed 
sown in late autumn usually germinates strongly the fol- 
lowing spring. If sown in the spring or early summer, it 
may come fairly quickly, or it may lie dormant until spring 
has come again. 
21 ANEMONE ALBANA CREAM-YELLOW—ryt(1-2)10. 
Rather large flowers, upfacing, many of them at even 
height, all of a rich creamy yellow, color of ice-cream 
made for home use on a dairy farm where they have 
Jersey cows. The plants are sturdily upright, compact grace- 
ful habit. Pkt. 15c. (Plants, each 25c.) 
21 ANEMONE CANADENSIS—erstyt(2)15. Foliage mounds, 
with big star-blossoms, many of them, but each on its sin- 
gle stem, carried well above. Usually purest white, but at 
times cream-flushed. An attractive species in both flower 
and foliage. Pkt. 10c; % oz. 25¢; % oz. 40c. (Plants, 
divisions, each 25c; 8 for 70c; 10 for $2.00.) 
21 ANEMONE CAROLINIANA ROSEA—crby(2-3)16. Of 
all the lovable Anemone tribe there is none more charming, 
none more adaptable, than the Rosy Windflower. The blos- 
soms are salver-shaped, pure deep rose, carried in sheafs. 
In April and May there will be six weeks of splendid bloom, 
with scattered flowers through summer and fall. Synonym, 
Anemone decapetala. Pkt. 15c; special larger pkg. 35c. 
32 ANEMONE CORONARIA ST. BRIGID STRAIN— 
rkt(1-2)9. Flowers mostly semi-double to fullest double, in

oz. 35c; 4 oz. 60ce. 
32 ANEMONE FULGENS—rkt(1-2)12. The Scarlet Wind- 
flower. Most brilliant scarlet. Exceedingly showy. Needs 
protection of straw or leaves in winter, north. Pkt. 15c. 
21 ANEMONE JAPONICA—cby(5)28. A glorious “spring 
in autumn” flower. Great long-stemmed blossoms of white, 
flesh-tinted cream, pure pink, or rich rose. Seeds saved 
from strains that begin flowering in early autumn. Full 
color range. Pkt. 1l5c. (Plants, each 30c; 8 for 85c.) 
21. ANEMONE PULSATILLA—ecrbltyt(1-2)17. Great pur- 
ple cups, centered with golden tassels, sit in green lacy 
ruffs. Satin-sheen-seed plumes. Pleasingly variable. Called 
Pasque Flower because a dye made from its leaves was used 
in older England to color Easter eggs. Hardy, robust, long- 
lived; well-established clumps of it really spectacular. Pkt. 
10c; 1% oz. 85c; % oz. 60c. (Plants, each 30c; 3 for 85c; 
10 for $2.50.) 
21 ANEMONE RIVULARIS—ecbmyt(3)20. The flowers are 
giant white stars, purple in reverse. Wide-branching, in 
open, airy habit. Fully winter-hardy here, though it ranges 
in India south to Ceylon. A desirable species. Pkt. 15c. 
21 ANEMONE VITIFOLIA—cby(38-4)30. Himalayan Wind- 
flower. In same effect as Anemone japonica, but blooms 
much earlier, by early August, sometimes even in late July, 
and it is very much hardier, so can be grown satisfactorily 
considerably farther north. Downy, silvery buds open to 
large flowers of soft pink, but in reverse deep rose. We 
have had this for many years, never give it any winter 
protection, and have so far not lost a plant. Pkt. 1l5c;

21 ANEMONELLA THALICTROIDES 
This is the Rue Anemone, exquisite in both blossom and 
foliage. Flowers of snowy white, or at times with faint 
blush suffusion, are carried airily above delicate foliage 
that is in Maiden-hair Fern reminder, but finer. Nothing 
prettier for the rock garden. Will grow in full sun, or in 
fairly dense shade. rnstyt(1-2)10. Pkt. 15c; 7?/s2 oz. 30c; 
1/48 oz. 50c. 

Who hears running water, far cricket, whisper of 
leaves, has still hope.
