arrangements.

asters for garden effect. The flowers resemble 
pompon chrysanthemums but they bloom 
earlier and have colors not available in those 
hardy plants. The mixture contains rose and 
lavender with white centers, scarlet and deep 
purple. Makes a very effective border about 
15 in. high.

ALYSSUM 
The most popular edging plant because of the 
ease with which it can be grown. The new dwarf 
varielies make trim mounds of pearly white 
which are sweet scented. 
2021—Little Gem. Unexcelled for white edging. 
The compact growing plants are small round 
mounds about 6 in. high and 10 in. across.

This is just one plant of Alyssum, Little Gem. 
If the plants get scraggly in mid-summer, they 
may be sheared back to several inches in height 
and ina week or ten days will be compact masses 
of bloom again. 
2022—Carpet of Snow. The best for a very low 
flat edging or ground cover. They form round 
flat mounds only 3 to 5 in. high and 12 to 
15 in. across. If the sides of the plants are 
kept sheared back they will make a very low, 
compact white edging all summer.
