(Mastacanthus X Mongolica.) This charming low growing shrub is a 
very real contribution to the meager list of summer and fall flower- 
ing shrubs. It is covered from August till autumn frost with numer- 
ous clusters of powdery blue, fringed flowers. This shrub grows about 
18 to 24 inches tall and is perfectly rounded, making a small mound 
about 2 feet in diameter. The foliage is lanceolate and slightly 
toothed and silvery green in color. A truly worth-while plant for the 
flower border as well as for in front of the shrubbery border. 
Perfectly hardy and replaces the tender Mastacanthus now in use.
