growths which flower right down to the ground. The flowers 
are large and dead white with a very small eye. Healthy 
foliage. 3-4 feet.

when first opening, but forming a distinctive cup with gold 
disk at the bottom when fully mature. A very strong grower. 
Violetta—The finest blue Aster in a collection of 425 varieties. 
Flowers from the ground up, unlike other types of Hardy 
Asters, and is a rich violet blue in color. A spiendid cut 
flower as well as a beautiful subject for mass effect. Height,

inches across, of a soft wisteria-violet shade, with large 
yellow centers. This Aster has a longer blooming period 
than any other variety, flowering from late August to frost.

individual flowers are displayed to their fullest beauty. We 
consider it both for cutting and table decorations, the finest 
Aster introduced. Price: 35¢ each, $3.50 per dozen, $25.00 
per 100. 

DWARF HYBRID BORDER ASTERS 
These Asters make magnificent border subjects and are 
splendidly adapted for rock garden work since they only attain 
a height of about 9 inches and are absolutely covered with 
flowers during the month of September. They are an acquisi- 
tion to rock garden enthusiasts on account of their magnificent 
colors and free flowering habit. Also they are in flower at a 
time when flowers in the rock garden are scarce. 
*Nancy—Of dwarf bushy habit and very free-flowering, the 
plants being covered with pale flesh-pink flowers toward 
the end of September and early October. 9 inches. 
*Niobe—Brilliant white flowers growing in a perfect ball about 
9 inches high. Flowering in September and October. 
BAPTISIA [False-Indigo) 
Australis—Very attractive dark blue, pea shaped flowers in 
long curving racemes, somewhat similar to Lupines, but 
more hardy in every way. Blooms in June and is about 2 
feet high. Suitable for the hardy border or wild garden and 
not at all particular as to soil requirements. 
BOLTONIA ([False-camomile] 
Asteroides—Flower heads pure white; flowering at the same 
time as the popular Michaelmas Daisies. 5 to 6 feet. 
Latisquama—Beautiful pink flowers. Same type as above. 5 
feet. 
BUDDLEIA 
“Charming"—Vivorous and very free flowering, producing a 
profusion of large lavender pink trusses continuously 
throughout the Summer. A striking ornament for the gar- 
den, also extremely valuable as a late Summer cut-flower. 
Small young plants set out in the Spring quickly grow to a 
height of 4 to 6 feet and of about the same diameter. Few 
other plants have attracted as much attention and favorable 
comment when shown for the first time. We suggest the 
pinching off in July of the first flower spikes showing, to 
aid the development of side shoots which will bring better 
flowers later in the season. Price: 50¢ per plant, $5.00 per 
dozen. 
Ile de France—A symmetrical bushy Shrub, attaining a height 
of 3 to 4 feet with long spikes of fragrant flowers of vivid 
violet-purple in color. Blooms the latter part of July until 
late in September. Price: 35¢ per plant, $3.50 per dozen. 
CAMPANULAS ([Canterbury-bells or Bellflower)

and the taller varieties are useful for cut-flowers as well as 
in the hardy border. 
Medium—White, pink. 
Calycanthema—Cup-and-saucer. Blue, white, lavender. 
Double—Blue, white, pink. 
Persicifolia, "Telham Beauty"—One of the best introductions

flowers, this variety is a most beautiful and attractive plant 
for the Perennial border. Excellent for cutting. 2 to 2% feet.

acid soil, attaining a height of about two feet and producing 
deep pink flowers in late Summer and Fall.

Chiffon—A daintily frilled Shasta which grows 18 inches tall. 
The flowers are formed by a double row of narrow petals, 
frilled and flared at the edges. The center is a clear yellow.

the garden and in a vase is one of light airiness and pleasing 
daintiness.
