ROCK GARDEN PLANTS 21 

For several years rock gardens and rock plants in general have been neglected. 
Because of lack of trained help we have had to discontinue growing many beautiful 
plants. Now, however, we are again building up our collection of Alpines and rock 
plants and offer here a few to help replenish our rock gardens. 
DWARF BORDER ASTERS 
To fill out that period when the summer’s floral 
parade starts to fade and before the fall chrysan- 
themum season begins the showy Border Asters are 
the answer. Any sunny spot in the rock garden 
or border with fairly rich soil will delight them. 
All are compact in habit—none over 15 inches high.
