No perennial planting is complete 
without Bleeding Heart. 
ANEMONE 
(Windflower) 
Anemones are the most charming of our very 
early spring and late fall flowers. Plant them in a 
partially shaded spot in fairly moist soil. If left 
undisturbed they multiply and persist for years, 
but are benefitted by a light mulch of well de- 
cayed compost. 
Fall Flowering 
Hupehensis. (Early Anemone.) Plants are 15 
to 18 in. tall and produce lovely rosy pink 
flowers from Aug. until late autumn. Lengthen 
the flowering period of fall anemones by 
planting this species with Anemone japonica. 
50c each; 3 for $1.30; Doz. $4.50. 
Japonica, Marie Marchard. Semi-double, very 
large white blooming Sept. and Oct. 
50c each; 3 for $1.30; Doz. $4.50. 
Japonica, Queen Charlotte. Semi-double “La 
France pink,’ large and perfectly formed 
flowers. 3 ft.; Sept. and Oct. 
50c each; 3 for $1.30; Doz. $4.50. 
Spring Flowering 
Pulsatilla (Pasque Flower). Soft violet to deep 
purple, 9 to 12 inches tall, blooms in April and 
May. The fluffy, silky seed pods which persist 
for weeks after the petals drop are just as 
attractive as the flowers themselves. 
50c each; 3 for $1.30; Doz. $4.50. 

Once established Anemones last for years.

ACHILLEA 
(Yarrow) 
Perry’s White. One of the most useful white 
perennials. Plants 18 in. tall are mounds of 
small white flowers like button chrysanthe- 
mums. Blooms in June and, if cut back, again 
in late summer. 
45c¢ each; 3 for $1.15; Doz. $4.00. 
ANCHUSA 
Myosotidiflora. (Forget-me-not flowered 
Anchusa.) Here’s a plant that looks like a 
glorified forget-me-not. Grows a foot high, 
blooms in May and June, thrives in partial 
shade. Very hardy. Excellent ground cover 
over lilies. Foliage good all summer. 
50c each; 3 for $1.30; Doz. $4.50. 
ANTHEMIS 
Moonlight. Very soft yellow, daisy-like flowers 
are produced in great numbers in early

and do not spread out of bounds. 
50c each; 3 for $1.30; Doz. $4.50. 
“Received my perennial plants from you yester- 
day. They were in fine condition and wonderfully 
large. Made 3 or 4 of ones from other nurseries. 
You are mentioned as A 1 in my Consumer Mag- 
azine.

spurs and the widest color range to be found in 
hybrid columbines. There are pinks, reds, 
lavenders, yellow, blues, in the mixture. 
Blooms in June; 3 ft. tall. Grow best in rather 
light soils enriched with humus. 
45e each; 3 for $1.15; Doz. $4.00. 
Illustrated in color on page 44. 
ASTER 
Harrington’s Pink. No lovelier tall—4 to 5 
feet—perennial can be imagined. Like the 
large wild asters that brighten the roadsides in 
Sept. and Oct.; but this is a soft rosy pink with 
no trace of magenta and the flowers do not 
close in the evening. Ideal background for 
chrysanthemums. 
Each 55e; 3 for $1.50; Doz. $5.00. 
ASTILBE 
(Spirea) 
Fanal. Growing only 2 ft. high this brilliantly 
colored new Astilbe is decorative even when 
not in bloom because of its shiny bronze 
foliage. Color a deep rich rose-crimson, frosted 
with silver. Blooms over a long period in early 
summer. Prefers a fairly damp soil. 
85c each; 3 for $2.25; Doz. $7.50. 

Achillea provides cut flowers all summer.
