tially shaded borders or in open woods. Plant in autumn or spring, 8 to

back of border, or for naturalizing at the edge of the woods. 
Simplex Each $0.70, Three $2.00, Doz. $7.00 
This is one of the finest, if not the finest, of fall flowering plants. Its 
flower stems are 214 to 3 feet high, terminated with a dense plumelike 
spike of white flowers which, when cut, last in perfection a long time. 
As a garden plant it is hard to beat but its greatest asset is that it 
grows superbly in shade. We know of no other plant quite as useful for 
that purpose. The flowers are at their best from September to middle 
October, and it’s perfectly hardy anywhere.

flowers. They are of easy culture, and produce their golden yellow
