flowers. Tubers delivered only from late Fall to early Spring, 
Most effective when planted 6 to 8 inches apart in groups 
and not disturbed.

blue on 3 to 4 foot spikes in Summer. Deeply cut, bright

AETHIONEMA—Persian Candytuft 
AETHIONEMA—-AA valuable group of plants for the sunny rock 
garden or wall. They should be planted in ordinary soil 
which is well-drained and rather light. Persian Candytufts 
root deeply and should not be disturbed. A careful annual 
pruning emphasizes their fascinating character and keeps 
them compact. Plant 8 to 10 inches apart. 
* Warley Rose—A decidedly ornamental shrublet 4 to 6 inches 
E> high with steel-blue, needle-like foliage. The charming, 
bright, rose pink flowers in mid-Spring are very much like
