MISCELLANEOUS ANNUALS—Continued 
STATICE, continued 
Suworowii. (Russian or Rat-Tail Statice). 12,000 S. A very 
useful Statice for greenhouse forcing. Seed sown in January 
will produce fine artistically curved rose pink “rat-tails” that 
work in splendidly with, center-pieces, etc., in late spring. Not 
suited for drying. Tr. pkt., 15e; %4 oz., 40c; 1 oz., $1.35.

For Strawflower, see Acroclinium, page 17 and Helichrysum, 
page 25. 
STRAWBERRY—Harzland. (Runnerless). The fruit of 
this unusual Strawberry is of small to medium size, bright 
red and of rich flavor and aroma. Because it does not pro- 
duce runners it is of value to florists as a Thanksgiving 
and Christmas pot plant. Seed will not germinate when 
soil is warm so should be sown outside in early spring and 
the plants carried through the summer in the open. If 
potted up at the approach of winter and brought inside 
they will, under proper conditions, bear fruit for several 
months. Here is something new for your holiday trade. 
Tr. pkt., 50ce; Ye oz., $1.50.

rose). Our original stock of this greenhouse winter flowering 
pot plant was grown by a European specialist; we are convinced 
no better is obtainable. Tr. pkt., $1.00; %4 oz., $2.75.
