TFtelleborus 
CHRISTMAS ROSE 
Helleborus altifolius (Improved 
Niger) 
Each $1.00, Three $2.75, Doz. $8.50 
Helleborus grow about 12 to 16 inches 
high and have handsome evergreen, 
palmlike foliage. Very leathery in tex- 
ture and dark green in color. During 
December, January or February, depend- 
ing on the locality where grown, they 
have large single white, bell-like flowers 
which frost does not affect. They last 
for a month or more and are produced 
regardless of cold or snow. For hardi- 
ness they cannot be improved upon and 
are able to withstand many degrees be- 
low zero. Helleborus are frequently 
grown in small cold frames on which 
the glass is placed only from November 
until after flowering sometime in Feb- 
ruary, the glass covering keeping the 
white flowers spotlessly clean. We offer 
nice 2-year-old plants of this rare va- 
riety. 
Hemerocallis,

Hyperion Each 75c, Three $2.00, Doz. $6.00
