Scilla Hispanica (Campanulata) 
Hertensia Virginica 
(Virginia Blue Bells) 
This is indispensable in the garden for color effect; flowers are porcelain- 
blue; buds pink at opening. The plant grows from 1 ‘to 2 feet high, bearing 
a panicle of flowers about 1 inch long in short pendent clusters. It is 
splendid for the open border or for naturalizing along the woodland path. 
We know of no other spring flower which does so well in deepest shade. 
It flowers from the time Daffodils are in bloom, continuing while the May- 
flowering Tulips are at their best. Use this delightful plant in quantities, 
as it is permanent and so helpful to create beautiful pictures, especially in 
shady places.

naturalized. Wood Hyacinths may be planted in bare shady places and odd 
corners which often have a desert-like appearance and can thus be rendered.

S ternbergia 
Three 65c, Doz. $2.30, 100 $15.00 
A very effective autumn-flowering bulbous plant producing Crocus-like 
flowers of a rich golden yellow. The bulbs make a charming decoration 
if planted in bowls or pots and flower a few weeks after planting. Out- 
of-doors the Sternbergia likes a warm, well-drained situation on banks 
or borders, where it should be left undisturbed. The bulbs should be 
planted 9 inches deep, and in cold districts a covering of dry litter should 
be given in winter. Fine for the rock garden.
