Nierembergia 
NIEREMBERGIA 
Five hundred individual cup shaped blue flowers are 
not at all unusual for this plant to produce in a single 
season. It is probably the most dependable low border 
- plant for an endless succession of bloom. It grows less 
than a foot high but bushes out to the size of a half 
bushel basket. The plant is perennial but requires pro- 
tection. Pkt., 25c. Plants, 35¢ each; 3 for 90c; 12 
for $3.00, postpaid. . . 
HARDY ORCHID 
The Lady Slipper or Cypripedium is a popular mem- 
ber of the Orchid family, in fact so popular that it has 
become almost extinct in its native haunts. . The beauti- 
ful yet curious flowers are produced on 12 inch stems 
in early summer. They are best suited to a shaded loca- 
tion with ample moisture. They are especially suited 
for planting around pools in the shade of overhanging 
trees. We can furnish plants in the following colors: 
PINK, YELLOW, at 35c each; 3 for 90c; 12 for $3.00, 
LEMON LILY 
Hyperion. This is one of the new hybrid forms of 
Hemerocallis or Lemon Lily. It is the finest of recent in- 
troductions, delightfully fragrant and an ideal cut flower, 
the buds opening well in water. The flowers are a fine 
citron-yellow and produced in great numbers on stout 40 
inch stems. Thrives in moist ground around pools and 
along streams and seems to do equally well in poor soil 
and on hot dry banks. Does well in full sunlight or partial 
shade. When first introduced, this variety sold at $2.50 
each. It is rapidly gaining in popularity and we are able, 
this year, to offer it at 80c each; 3 for $2.25.

color or combination of colors you can think of, except

and offer here only those we know will well repay our customers for the little care they require. They average 2 
to 3 feet in height and bloom from June to October. 
_ BORDER QUEEN. Bright pink florets, 1% 
to 2 inches across and one of the finest Phlox 
grown. The plant_is branching in habit and 
rather dwarf, forming a broad, bushy mound. 
CHIEFTAIN. Intense, deep crimson. An un- | 
usual shade that words cannot describe and 
distinct from any other Phlox we know. It 
holds its color better than most dark varieties 
and we know you will like it. ; : 
DAILY SKETCH. Enormous flowers in beau- 
tiful trusses. A fine pink with a bright, car- 
mine eye. This variety does not fade and 
blooms intermittently until frost. Much has 
been written about this Phlox.

“LILLIAN. Large flowers of Cameo-pink with 
a faint blue eye. An unusually fine variety. 
MARY LOUISE. No larger flower has. ever 
heen produced on any Phlox. The flowers are 
pure white without shadings of any descrip- 
tion. They are so large that when we placed 
a silver dollar on the florets of one-year-old 
plants we found the silver dise wanting in size. 
The flower edges actually overlapped the metal 
coin.

ROYAL PURPLE. The color is so 
deep that only a royal purple can ap- 
proach it in description. It is a rich, 
warm shade of reddish-purple, such as 
artists portray on the robes of roy- « 
alty. An excellent variety that is 
aptly named. 
SALMON BEAUTY. A really un- 
usual and interesting color combina- 
tion. The large flowers are deep salmon pink, 
but instead of having a ‘‘ring’’ or ‘‘eye,’’ 
the center is made up of two pure white 
‘‘beams’’ covering a third of each floret, 
gradually blending into the outer area of sal- 
mon-pink. A beautiful sight. 
SAN ANTONIO. A deep American Beauty 
red brightened by an overlaying glow of car- 
mine, the intensity of which increases toward 
the center of each flower. This is a new color 
in Phlox that you will like. We heartily rec- 
ommend it. 
TIGRESS. An outstanding Phlox. Vigor- 
ous, upright growing with immense trusses of 
brilliant orange-scarlet flowers. The trusses 
are huge pyramids which are built up by long 
branched laterals, giving an unusually long 
period of bloom. oe
