NEW LARGE FLOWERING HARDY PENTSTEMON 
cae _ Garnet—This is the first of a new strain of hardy, large- 
al 
flowering Pentstemons. Heretofore, the only large- 
flowering Hybrid Pentstemons available were the 
_ Gloxinoides which are not hardy in the North. Pent- 
stemon “Garnet” is of spreading habit and produces a 
succession of bloom from June until stopped by frost. 
The Gloxinea-like flowers are a rich garnet color, and 
are gracefully placed on stems 12 to 18 inches tall. The 
plants have from six to a dozen spikes continually 
throughout its flowering season. The flowers are ex- 
cellent for cutting and last a week or more in water. 
This new large-flowered variety has been growing in 
our nursery and several test gardens for three years. 
It has been left unprotected during three winters with- 
out showing any signs of frost damage. We consider it 
as hardy as the common Barbatus variety. Pentstemon 
Garnet is a handsome and worthwhile addition to any 
garden, as well as a first class cutflower.

PRIMULA AURICULA—Evergreen Primrose 
In the Auricula we have a primrose that may be grown 
with no protection whatever in any part of the country. 
The broad fleshy leaves are evergreen and may often 
be seen encaked in ice in our beds but when the ice 
is gone they are as firm as ever. In some varieties the 
leaves are coated with a silvery bloom that adds greatly 
to their charm. The sweetly scented flowers come in a 
wide range of colors. They bloom both spring and fall, 
asking only a rich, moist soil in sun or shade. A situa- 
tion affording light shade from the noon-day sun suits 
them best. We are offering a few named sorts from our 
large collection of imported varieties, grown entirely 
from division and guaranteed true to name.
