level, always attractive. The flowers 
last an unusually long time, both on the 
bush and when cut. Makes a vigorous 
bush, 3 feet tall, with sturdy flowering 
stems. Hardy, easy to grow and far 
superior to the common Rudbeckia,

Rudbeckia, White Lustre—an out- 
standing new novelty for 1943. Orig- 
inated by Mr. Donofrio, one of Amer- 
ica’s best perennial specialists. This 
plant is very similar to Rudbeckia, 
The King excepting the flowers are 
pure white with a bronzy center cone. 
Perfectly hardy, easy to grow. It 
makes a thrifty, vigorous bush about 
3 feet tall, which blooms all summer. 
Those who have seen it, are very 
enthusiastic about it. A big bush, full 
of the large flowers, white with con- 
trasting bronzy center, is a beautiful 
sight. Postpaid. Each 75c.
