Sweet William - Dianthus 
Barbatus 
A well-known, old-fashioned perennial 
which has long been used for beds and bor- 
ders. It is one of the most desirable plants 
in the garden, is easily grown, very hardy 
and free-flowering, continuing in bloom for 
several weeks. The flowers are borne in 
heads or clusters, sweet scented, in brilliant 
colors ranging from pure white through pink, 
erimson, etc., to deep purple. Most of them 
have two colors in the same flower. They 
are borne on stiff stems in graceful pro- 
fusion and the clusters are often 3 to 4 inches 
across. Useful for cutting. Height 1% feet. 
1050 NEWPORT PINK. A distinct new color 
which originated in one of the far-famed 
gardens at Newonort, R. I. In color it is 
what florists call watermelon-pink or sal- 
mony rose. Strikingly brilliant and beau- 
tiful; the flowers are borne in massive 
heads on stems 18 inches high. For mid- 
season mass bedding it has no equal. -It 
is also very effective for cutting. Pkt., 10c; 
Y% oz., 35c. 
1051 HOLBORN GLORY. This strain is a 
large-flowered selection of the auricula- 
eyed section, the most beautiful and ad- 
mired of all Sweet Williams. The individ- 
ual flowers and trusses are of extraordinary 
size, while the range of color, all showing 
a clear, white eye, is truly superb. Pkt., 
10c; % oz., 25c.

venreey. of excellent shades. PkEt., 10c; %4

Intense scarlet. 
Thalictrum - Meadow Rue 
Handsome dark foliage resembling the 
Columbine. The flowers are borne in feathery 
clusters. Very useful in making bouquets. 
Its light and graceful habit makes it very 
valuable in the perennial border or when 
placed among the shrubbery. 
1054 DIPTEROCARPUM. A handsome her- 
baceous plant, with loose sprays of clear 
rosy purple with lemon-yellow stamens 
and anthers. The plant is of strong growth, 
about 4 to 5 feet high. The flowers are 
produced during August and September. 
Thrives best in a poor soil in a sunny posi- 
tion. Pkt., 15c. 
Tritoma 
(Red-hot Poker, or Torch Lily) 
1055 HYBRIDA. The introduction of new, 
continuous flowering Tritomas has given 
them a prominent place among hardy bed- 
ding plants. It is not generally known that 
they are readily grown from seed, many 
flowering the first year if sown early. Of 
course, for immediate results it will be 
better to get plants, but raising them from 
seed is highly interesting. Perennial. Pkt., 
15c; 2 pkts., 25c. 
Trollius - Globe Flower 
1056 LEDEBOURI, GOLDEN QUEEN. The 
plant is very vigorous, grows from 3 to 4 
feet in height, but its chief value lies in the 
size of the flowers, the intense orange color, 
the extreme floriferousness and the con- 
stancy with which it flowers in autumn! as 
well as early summer. It comes practically 
true to type from seed. Most Trollius are 
rather uncertain to raise from seed when 
sown in the spring, but one of the greatest 
recommendations this introduction has is 
that the seed germinates freely when sown 
in fall. Seed germinates slowly. Soak in 
hot water for 5 or 6 hours before sowing. 
Hardy perennial, Pkt., 350. 
1057 MIXED VARIETIES. Saved from a 
collection of the newest varieties, ranging 
in color from pale yellow to deep orange;
