10 Plants Especially Well Adapted for Use in 
Hanging Baskets, Pots and Window Boxes 
Every year I find it necessary to grow more and more of this type of material to meet 
the ever increasing demand. 
1. BROWALLIA Speciosa Major 
It is with greatest of pleasure that I call your attention to this 
wonderful plant. Early in spring the small plants commence to 
flower, and there is a continuous display of ultra-marine-blue 
flowers until late autumn. The general effect of a well grown 
basket of this variety, is that of a shower of sparkling stars. 
Plants in 3-inch pots, 15c each. Larger plants in 4-inch pots, 
25c each. 
2. BEGONIAS 
Many varieties of begonias are more lovely than ever when 
used in baskets or window boxes: See “Fibrous Begonias’’ for 
complete descriptions. See pages 24 and 25. 
3. COMPANULA MURALIS 
One of the most showy of the Campanula family, covered with 
deep blue flowers during May, June and July. Last year while 
our one basket of this lovely plant was in flower, we sold over 
500 smaller plants. It is easy to grow and cannot be recommended 
too highly for hanging baskets, window boxes or rock gardens. 
Plant in any good soil and protect from the hot noon day sun. 
shen p in 3-inch pots, l5c each; larger plants in 4-inch pots, 35c

4. CAMPANULA ISOPHYLLA 
These plants make our most popular white hanging baskets. 
The first blooms appear early in summer, and thereafter for 
weeks there is an endless show of pure white, bell-shaped flowers 
about the size of a twenty-five cent piece. 
Flowering size plants in 3-inch pots, 20c each; larger plants in 
4 and 5-inch pots, 35c to 50c each. 
5. FERNS (Polypodium Knightii) 
One of the finest, and most rare of ferns for hanging baskets. 
The fronds are long and graceful being equally as exquisite as a 
beautiful Ostrich plume. One of the most interesting features of 
the fern is that the fronds will be produced from the sides and 
bottom of the basket as well as out of the top, thus adding 
grensty beet ae beauty of the subject. Prices start at 40c each.
