SEDUMS 
The low growing varieties are gems for 
the rock garden, rock steps, between 
stepping stones and other dry sunny situ- 
ations. Most of them are evergreen. Showy 
Stonecrop, which is not evergreen, makes 
a great showing late in the summer and 
early fall in the flower garden. 
Album. (White Stonecrop). A dwarf, spread- 
ing plant with thick, waxy foliage. Pure 
white flowers in July. 3 for $1.10. 
Elegans. Pretty glaucous, bluish green 
bushlets, 3-4 inches high. 3 for $1.10. 
Ellacombianum. Among the first five most 
desirable Sedums for the rock garden. A 6- 
inch bushy green mound, that takes on 
glorious colors of orange and red in Autumn. 
and yellow flowers in July. 3 for $1.10. 
Sarmentosum. The best Sedum for a ground 
cover for hot, dry places. Grows rapidly.

ing ground cover for sunny places, obscured

will surely become popular. Charming con- 
trasts are created by the bright carmine- 
red flowers which appear just above the 
prostrate bronzy-red foliage from July to
