Allium cuthbertii. A beautiful little bulbous plant, about 8 inches 
tall, with quite a large head of upturned miniature white 
lilies. The finest of our eastern Alliums. Very attractive in 
the rock garden where it demands an acid soil with a liberal 
admixture of sand. $1.00 
Allium oxyphilum is one of the best of the native Alliums. It 
produces heads of good sized snow white flowers like tiny 
lilies on thread like pedicels that droop in graceful fashion. 
From Virginia mountains. A “‘shale-barren’’ endemic. Acid 
soil. 75c 
Amsonia ciliata ‘'Alice’’. An extra fine variety of this little known 
but very handsome plant. It bears dense heads of well formed 
salver shaped flowers of clear Alice Blue. The 10-15 inch 
stems are well clothed with leaves no wider than a blade of 
grass. It is a splendid plant for the rock garden and does 
best in full sun and a poor soil. From Georgia. Acid soil. $2.50 
Amsonia ciliata tenuifolia “Aquamarine” is undoubtedly one of 
the loveliest plants. Although it is a dwarfer variety than 
Amsonia ciliata, the flowers are larger and quite circular 
and the color is an enchanting rare shade of aquamarine 
blue. The rooting shoots spread underground and at all sea- 
sons its wide mass of feathery green is ornamental. Its 
growth habit is quite different from Amsonia ciliata and it 
may be given specific rank. From Georgia. Acid soil. $2.50 
Amsonia ciliata tenuifolia ‘“Whitecap’’. A white flowered variety 
of delicate beauty. From Georgia. Acid soil. $2.50 
Artemisia sp. A most useful and fast growing ground cover with 
attractive aromatic gray green foliage. It grows only a few 
inches high and makes a neat carpet so dense no soil is 
visible. It was found on the coast of the Gaspe some years 
ago but may not be native to America. So far it has not 
been identified. Neutral soil. 75c 
Aster linariifolius purpureus. A very late blooming form that 
makes a showy mass of wonderfully vivid purple flowers 
the end of October. $1.00
