* NIEREMBERGIA COERULEA (22) 
A lovely and dainty thing, with open chalices, skyblue 
to richest violet, carried in prodigal floriferousness for 
many months. Though of easiest garden culture, and usu- 
ally grown there as an annual, it will make, if desired, 
a delightful pot plant. Actually it is perennial, and with 
a bit of extra care and protection, as a thick mulching 
of loose straw or other material that will not mat down, 
will winter safely, and start then its blooming in early 
April. It is a splendid species of great beauty and many 
uses. erx(8)8. Illustrated page 4 as N. hippomanica, the 
ne which this plant is usually, but wrongly, offered.
