Wy eriensia Virginica 
Virginia Blue Bells 
This is indispensable in the garden for color effect; flowers are porce - 
lain-blue; buds pink at opening. The plant grows from 1 to 2 feet high, 
bearing a panicle of flowers about | inch long in short pendent clusters 
It is splendid for the open border or for naturalizing along the woodland 
path. It flowers from the time Daffodils are in bloom, continuing while 
the May-flowering Tulips are at their best. Use this delightful plant in 
quantities, as it is permanent and so helpful to create beautiful pictures, 
especially in shady places.
