STRAWBERRIES 
AMAZE. The small, wild growing straw- 
berries have a flavor which is by far 
superior to that of the large cultivated 
varieties. Amaze has no runners. The 
dwarf, compact plants, full of red berries, 
bring good profits as a pot plant all 
through the winter. 
Per 10, $1.50; Per 100, $10.00 
TRADESCANTIA 
Spiderwort 
VIRGINICA. Produces a_ succession of 
blue flowers all summer, on fleshy blue- 
green stems about 18 inches high. A very

to grow more delicate subjects; does well 
in shade and at the base of house or 
porch where nothing else will grow.

form.

THALICTRUM 
ADIANTIFOLIUM 
Always a garden regular, now won- 
drously worthwhile for florists, too. 
The foliage of this variety is much 

like the Maiden Hair Fern and can 
freely be used in its place. It is just 
different enough to give floral 
pieces made with it that toney, dis- 
tinguishing look that sets them 
apart as extraordinary work. AS 
soon as the plants go dormant out- 
side, they may be brought into the 
greenhouses and benched where 
they will produce new crops of fo- 
liage in prolific abundance. Beyond 
this, miniature white flowers on tall 
slender spikes grace the plants dur- 
ing June and for a two-week period 
while they are being forced inside. 
It’s a big double value.

RUBRA FLORA PLENA. We have grown 
this variety for three years and found it 
to be perfectly hardy in our climate. It 
has the appearance of a very strong grow- 
ing type, carrying a heavy setting of fo- 
liage from the crown to the tip of the 
branches. 'The double and semi - double 
flowers, often appearing on the same 
plant, are a striking mahogany red. We 
have every reason to believe that as soon 
as this Vinca is generally available it will 
become very popular.
