SEPTEMBER GLORY 
This late flowering type was select- 
ed from a large number of fine 
seedlings because of its outstand- 
ing beauty. It has proved very 
popular as a cut flower in the 
trade for the past few years but 
has never been offered in growing 
plants. It is the showiest form of 
all the late varieties. The purple 
flowers are produced on extra long 
spikes during late August and Sep- 
tember. A first-class acquisition for 
the border and for cutting.

SCARIOSA WHITE PEARL 
The beautiful white flowers can be 
used in connection with other 
flowers or by themselves for the

highly recommend that all growers 
i make ae planting of this white 
Liatris. We are sure that it will 
become one of the most valuable 
cut flowers in your establishment. 
The plants grow 38 to 4 feet with 
elegant flower spikes thickly cov- 
ered with lovely fluffy white 
blooms which reach more than half 
way down the stems. Very often 
when the main flowers are cut, 
later in the season the side shoots 
will also develop fine quality flow- 
i ers on short stems which can be 
i used in smaller vases or in ar- 
rangements with other flowers.
