MUSCARI COMOSUM—So different that one would scarce 
believe it a close cousin of Grape Hyacinth. The flowers 
are carried in tall, openly spaced spike-racemes, some- 
times to 20 inches, little bells, each on a lengthened hori- 
zontal pedicel. The lower flowers are always brown-olive, 
the upper ones blue-violet. Full winter hardiness. 5 for 
35c; 10 for 60c; 25 for $1.30. 
MUSCARI MOSCHATUM FLAVUM—Nutmeg Hyacinth, 
called so from the odd, sweet fragrance. Loose racemes 
of somewhat tubular bells that open purple, but soon be- 
come soft pale yellow. Full hardiness, but should always 
have a position in full sun. 3 for 50c; 10 for $1.40.

three weeks from the middle of October to the middle of 
March and you can have continuous flowers all winter 
long. 5 for 50c; 10 for 90c; 25 for $2.10; 100 for $8.00.

with soft yellow centers, and are carried in big clusters.

PLANT PERENNIALS NOW 
About all of the various hardy perennial plants listed 
in our General Catalog and in our Flower Sampler Folder 
may be put out in autumn just as well as in spring, and 
September and October are good months as to tempera- 
ture for both shipping and transplanting. Put out in au- 
tumn, perennial plants will get off to a good start as soon 
as the soil is warm in spring, and will give fine show of 
bloom in your rock garden or border. Please, though, give 
an alternate choice or two on your order for perennial 
plants, for by autumn some few of the kinds in the Gen- 
eral Catalog are likely to be sold out. To the extent that 
stocks remain available. General Catalog No. 45 and 
Flower Sampler Offer No. 45S remain in effect until Janu- 
ary, 1947, and we shall be glad to have any orders that 
you may make up from them. ote
