21 CHELIDONIUM MAJUS DOUBLE—erbnx(2-3)25. Pretty 
and double blossoms of golden orange for a long season. 
Attractive foliage. Recommended. Pkt. 10c; % oz. 30c. 
31 CHIONODOXA—Glory of the Snow. Early spring bulbs 
of great beauty. Hardy. “‘y” culture. LUCILIAE, skyblue,

and dried for winter show. Pkt. 10c. 
33 CHLIDANTHUS FRAGRANS—One of the Fairy Lilies. 
Slender trumpet-flowers of golden waxiness in rather early 
spring. There is an alluring fragrance. Dig and store in 
winter. From the lower Andes. Bulbs only, March to June. 
4 for 25c; 9 for 50c; 19 for $1.00. 
31 CHLOROGALUM POMERIDIANUM—my(2)45. Bushy 
panicles of purple-striped white blossoms. Hardy garden 
bulb, or may be grown as a pot plant. Aside from the 
ornamental, this plant has economic value. The thick fibrous 
bulb-husks are used for mattresses or in manufacture of 
brushes. The bulbs, themselves, cut into water, will make 
a soft lather, for they are rich in saponin. Pkt. 15c. 
25 CHORIZEMA CORDATUM—w. Blossoms of brilliant 
searlet in close racemes. Window or conservatory. Pkt. 20c. 
21 CHRYSOGONUM VIRGINICUM — Spreading mats of 
restful green, studded with golden stars from June until late 
November. Shade tolerant, try it in that “too-near-the-tree”’ 
rock garden. Pkt. 20c. (Plants, each 35c; 3 for $1.00.) 
21 CICHORIUM INTYBUS — ebnkt(2-4)60. Blue Sailors, 
or Wild Chicory. A highly attractive flower, there is no 
more vivid blue than this. A sound perennial, worthy any 
flower garden, or it may be naturalized. Pkt. 10c. 
21 CHRYSOPSIS DECUMBENS — erkt(3)9. Wide, oddly 
spread plants covered with rich yellow daisies. Quite dif- 
ferent from the others, but all are good. Pkt. 1b5c. 
21 CHRYSOPSIS FALCATA—erdk(3-4)12. Ground Gold. 
The plants are draped in sheer gold for at least two months. 
Sun or shade. Pkt. 10e. 
21 CHRYSOPSIS MARIANA—ecbdkt(4)25. Golden Aster. 
Large single flowers of richest yellow, like splendid Fall 
Asters. Extraordinarily good. Pkt. 10c. 
21 CIMICIFUGA RACEMOSA — bstyt(2)60. Long spike- 
racemes of fluffy cream-white blossoming. Effectively deco- 
rative likewise when in fruit. Good and enduring peren- 
nial for light shade. Pkt. 10c. 
25 CINERARIA MULTIFLORA NANA—w. Blues of in- 
tense, burning brilliance, with rich carmine, rose, white and 
pink. Great showy clusters of closely packed flowers. This 
dwarf compact strain is the best of Cinerarias for window 
culture. Pkt. 25c. 
35 CIPURA MARTINICENSIS — k(w) (8)20. Tigridia-like 
Se  e creamy white, marked purple. Synonym Trimeza. 
c. 
21 CIRSIUM MONSPESSULANUM — *ecbx(2-4)40. The 
Showy Thistle. Big blossoms of pink lavender, fiuffily 
double, carried on high stems. Handsome, harmless, basal 
foliage of emerald, stem-wings above of lettuce green. Ef- 
fects of airy charm for the perennial border. It won’t 
spread, though it’s good enough so that you will wish it 
would. Pkt. 15c. (Plants each 30c; 3 for 85c.) 
11 CIRSIUM DIACANTHA—ebx(9)35. Doubt that any 
hardy plant has more decorative foliage than this, best, 
perhaps in the first-year effect. Rosettes of dark green 
spiny leaves, with pure white markings. Second year there 
are attractive purple flowers. Pkt. 10c. 
11 CIRSIUM VENUSTUM — ebx(3)60. Scarlet Thistle. 
Great scarlet blossoms. A most showy plant. Pkt. 15c. 
*CLADANTHUS ARABICUS—erdk(2)15. Gold of Araby. 
Burnished golden daisies terminate each leafy stem. Then 
new stems radiate from beneath the flower, several of them, 
each in its turn to become flower-tipped, with new stems 
radiating from below the bloom. So the process continues 
until late autumn. Highly decorative plant for hot, dry 
positions. Pkt. 15c. 
*CLARKIA FINEST DOUBLE MIXED—eck (2-4)25. Flowers 
that might be little double roses, carried in wreathe sug- 
gestion. Pink, salmon, rose, carmine, white and purple 
in mixture. A delightful annual. Pkt. 10c. 
31 CLAYTONIA VIRGINICA — ernstkt(1-2)10. Spring 
Beauty. Profuse blossoming of softest pink, crimson- 
penciled. Long in bloom. Rock garden, or naturalize in 
light shade. Will even grow in rich lawn, and not interfere 
with mowing. Pkt. 15c; 1/32 oz. 35c. ; 
CLEMATIS—See next page. 
* CLEOME 
Stately annual flowers that have almost the effect of 
shrubs, though they are easy from seed, and fairly quick, 
giving a long season of bloom. 
*GOLDEN CLEOME—ebk(3-5)60. Sow seeds in early spring, 
and by mid-July the plants will be in flower, a towering 
airiness of swaying golden orange from then until late 
October. Massed groups of it give magnificent effects, and 
it is a new color in Cleome. The plants simulate tree form, 
a yard-high slender trunk, then a wide tangle of branching, 
each branch ending in an ever-extending raceme of crowded 
golden blossoms, long-stamened and as lightsome a filigree 
in sky-profile as any other Cleome. Pkt. 15¢; 1/ig oz. 25c; 
1% oz. 85c; %4 oz. 70c; 1 oz. $2.25. 
*GREAT PINK CLEOME — ebk(2-5)50. Stately many- 
stemmed plants, each stem ending in a great airy raceme, 
ever-lengthening, of most showy flowers, the petals brilliant 
rose; stamens slender, spidery. Three months of bloom. 
Gynandropsis speciosa. Pkt. 10c; %4 oz. 25c, 
*GREAT WHITE CLEOME—ebk(2-5). This, Gynandropsis 
pentaphylla, comes from the Cape of Good Hope. It is 
very like the last, save that the flowers are pure white, and 
the growth a bit more open. Pkt. 10e. 
*CLEOME SERRULATA—ecbk(3)50. Airy rose-pink, the 
branching habit very different from that of Great Pink 
Cleome, more tree-like in form, yet no taller, giving it, 
perhaps, more charm and grace of carriage. The flower- 
clusters also, are less loose. This is our own favorite of 
Cleomes. It cuts well. Pkt. 15c; % oz. 25c. 
OFFER 55Al—One pkt. each of above for 40e.
