Gypsophila Bristol Fairy 

In the garden a soft-toned, mistlike cloud; closer in- 
spection reveals fully double florets four times as large 
and much whiter than ordinary Babysbreath. Bristol Fairy 
blooms all summer long, providing a continuous supply of 
the finest of floral filler. Clvst pots, $1.25 
IRIS 
MODERN TALL BEARDED VARIETIES 
Last year we couldn’t begin to fill our iris orders even 
though we sold too many varieties down to the barest mini- 
mum. The only irises on the place are the new plantings of 
1946 and we must on that account say definitely NO IRIS FOR 
SPRING DELIVERY. 
Best results follow late summer planing. We do our own 
planting in August and early September and deliver all orders 
at this time. Come see our iris in early June. It’s so much 
easier to choose from the actual flowers than any printed 
description. 
Prices quoted are for single rhizomes, delivered 
July or later

FRAGRANT 
Here is a perennial that 
costs even less than a geran- 
ium; will give more color, 
more and better fragrance, 
and then live over winter 
to repeat for several more 
years. 

The most prolific, largest, < 
showiest, hardy carnation. Bn 
Dazzling crimson flowers on stiff, stocky stems long enough 
for cutting. The blooms are richly clove scented and the 
plants bloom continuously from early July to late October.

Aquilegia coerulea, the true Rocky Mountain 
columbine and Colorado state flower. Long-spur- 
red blue and white. 
Aquilegia flabellata nana, a cunning little plant 
only 12 inches tall; beautiful foliage; short- 
spurred ivory white flowers. 

Hosta, Plaintainlily 
Large, luxuriant clumps of broad shining leaves grow 
from compact crowns that send up graceful spikes of nod- 
ding tubular lily-like flowers in midsummer. Especially 
valuable for shady places—the best answer to that common 
question, “What summer flowers can I have in the shade?” 
Hardy, pest-free, easily grown in ordinary soil.

Robust grower with large, snow white lily shaped 
blooms in August and September. 
H. DECORATA ______ is eles ts SHADY 


Large, broad blue-green leaves; pale lavender 
blooms in July. The flowers aren't very showy 
but the robust plant is extremely ornamental 
the entire season. 
While the hostas grow and bloom in most any soil they 
get really luxuriant in sheltered positions where the soil is 
light and filled with humus. They like old, well-rotted manure 
and leafmold in almost any quantities and appreciate extra 
moisture. Growing in our new shade house are 8 species in 
addition to those described above—the most complete collection 
in the entire west. but in quantities too limited to offer for 
sale until this fall. We invite you to come and see thern and 
place your orders for September delivery.

Pyrethrums 
LILLIE MORGAN. One of the finest double painted 
daisies yet, completely doubled, showing not a single 
stamen or disk-flower. Color of the Radiance rose when 
it first opens, gradually fading to white as it ages. 
Extra free-flowering, strong, healthy grower averaging 
18 to 24 inches, perfectly hardy. Often in full bloom by 
Memorial Day and if blooms are cut when faded it 
repcats occasionally through the summer. Each $1.00. 
BUCKEYE, Rare, fully double, non - fading, dark 
rose red with every good characteristic of the above 
variety. Each $1.00. 
_Double pyrethrums make no seed and vegetative propa- 
gation is slow. Coupled with the labor shortage of the past 
few years this factor has contributed to making them nearly 
the scarcest of all perennials. We doubt if there are half 
a dozen nurseries in the entire United States listing Double 
Pyrethrums, and reserve the right to discontinue sales of 
this item at any time.
