PSEUDACORUS. 36 to 48 inches. This is a par- 
ticularly valuable species for several reasons. 
First, it is a rich yellow color, which color is 
entirely lacking in Siberian and Japanese Iris 
and it is especially attractive mixed with the Si- 
berian. Second, it will grow in marsh or swampy 
land, even with 2 or 3 inches of water over it, 
and makes a pretty picture in shallow water or 
along the water’s edge. Third, it is excellent for 
naturalizing, as it will take care of itself in the 
most rugged surroundings.

demand. With the comprehensive list of varieties now covering all of the 
summer and early fall months with peak crops of flowers, all who plant

not complete without them, and to leave any variety out of a cut flower 
planting is to ignore one of the most generous profit possibilities existing 
on the outdoor cut-flower market.

SCARIOSA WHITE PEARL. 
flowers can be used 
The beautiful white 
in connection with other 
flowers or by themselves for the larger floral 
pieces. We believe that this is one of the nicest 
items for florists that has come to our attention 
for a long time. We very highly recommend that 
all growers make a 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 3 to 4 feet with elegant flower 
spikes thickly covered 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 flowers on short stems which 
can be used in smaller vases or in arrangements 
with other flowers.

SPICATA. Grows to a height of 24 to 30 inches,

weeks earlier than any other Liatris. It is very at- 
tractive when used in arrangements with Delphin- 
ium Belladonna or other seasonable flowers.
