PENTSTEMON, Ruby King 60c each; 3 for $1.60; 6 for $3.00 
(Plant Patent No. 744) 
An outstanding new hybrid Pentstemon. Very free- 
blooming, long-lasting flower-spikes of a brilliant 
color. For a continued display, its 2-in., trumpet-like 
flowers are unsurpassed. 
The sturdy flower-spikes are 18 to 24 in. high and are 
roduced freely even the first year. Illuminated by 
the clear white throat and inside of the trumpet, each 
flower-spike seems to dance in the summer breezes. A 
single plant in your garden will be every bit as bushy 
and colorful as the illustration above. Imagine what 
a glorious sight five or six plants like this would be 
in a group. 
The flowers of Ruby King are larger, more free blooming, 
and more showy than previous hybrids. Its superior 
qualities are the result of selective breeding and thor- 
ough research which now give you a Pentstemon su- 
perior to any you ever knew before. 
Last summer this Ruby King started blooming in the 
nursery fields during late June, and we were still able 
to pick bouquets even in Oct. It should bloom just as 
freely in your garden next summer and fall.

gardens, or any other location where you

for you in full sun or in semi-shady places. 
Blue Carpet has the larger, light blue, bell- 
shaped flowers on 5 to 6-in. stems. 
Very conspicuous and showy. A great 
favorite for edgings and for rockeries. 
This variety is exceptional, giving blue 
color when there is very little other blue in 
the garden. Remains attractive all season, 
and doesn’t sprawl like other members of 
this family.
