HELENIUM CHIPPERSFIELD ORANGE 
HELENIUM. 
HELENIUM—Reliable Summer and Fall blooming perennials 
with warm, autumn-tinted flowers. There are tall ones and 
there are short ones but all are excellent in the border and 
for cutting. Hardy and easily grown in rather light, ordi- 
nary soils and full sun. The modern, improved varieties 
were all developed from native species, mainly autumnale. 
We are offering two of the better varieties this season.

g!owing, Orange yellow blooms stained brick-red, in late 
Summer and early Fall. 4 to 5 ft. 75¢ and $1.00.

ducing luminous, brownish-red flowers well above the fo- 
liage. A blaze of color during the Summer. 75c and $1.00.

HELLEBORUS 
HELLEBORUS— All these are best planted in the shade of a 
deciduous shrub or tree, receiving the shade during the 
Summer months but getting the light during the Fall and 
Winter months. They will thrive in a soil of rich loam, 
coarse sand, some peat moss and a top-dressing of well- 
rotted manure. Prefer a moist, but well-drained position. 
They resent being disturbed after having bzgen established. 
Always prepare the soil deeply and thoroughly and too-dress 
annually. Helleborus are evergreen and respond to extra 
water during the dry season. Highly recommended for the 
border and woodland garden and for distinctive flower ar- 
rangements.

its flowering period during late Winter and early Spring, 
the time of Lent. Erect growing, | foot or more, with bold, 
evergreen, palmately-divided leaves. The flowers, 2 to 3 
inches across, are borne on strong, stiff stems, 12 to 18 
inches long. They come in a wide range of colors, white, 
pink, maroon, some with purplish or crimson dots. Distinct 
in color and shape, valuable in the garden or in flower ar- 
rangements. Mixed colors only. 75c, $1.00, and $1.50.
