HELENIUM MOERHEIM BEAUTY ... Indian Summer Shades 
GALAX—Evergreen Ground Cover Deluxe 
Each 65c, three $1.60, six $3.00 
From the southern Appalachian Mountains comes this sumptuous 
but refined evergreen ground cover. It has impressive, broad, heart- 
shaped leaves with a mirror-like gloss overlaying the verdant green 
beneath. In the autumn these heavy-textured leaves turn to glorious 
russet and bronze. In summer the spreading mats put up fluffy 
white flower spikes with 18 inch stems. Ideally suited to woodland 
soils with moderate moisture and light to rather heavy shade. Set 
the plants 6 to 8 inches apart and they will make an elegant carpet. 
Rated ‘‘tops’’ as a ground cover East or West.

GENTIANA—’"As Blue as a Gentian” 
Nothing need be said about the purity and intensity of their blue 
color... it is world famous! They are winter hardy and even a 
small planting in the rock garden will be a center of interest. In 
cool climates they will flourish in full sun but in hot, dry sections 
it is more satisfactory to plant them in light shade or a north ex- 
posure. They must be given ample moisture. 
*acaulis Each 75c, three $1.90, six $3.50 
The renowned Stemless or Swiss Gentian from the Alps. The close, 
bright green mats thrust up enormous blue trumpets on inch or 
two stems from early to mid-spring and off and on thereafter until 
cold weather arrives. Most authorities recommend a deeply dug, 
rich loam with plenty of sun, water, and lime. Many of our cus- 
tomers report success with a somewhat heavier mixture and light 
shade. Our strain is selected for its free-blooming habit. Space 
6 inches. 
*septemfida Each 65c, three $1.60, six $3.00 
Clusters of large, sapphire blue trumpets on reclining, 8 to 10 inch 
stems. A grand sight cascading over the top of a wall or down the 
face of a rock and particularly valuable because the blooms come 
in early and mid-summer when extra color is needed in the rock 
garden. Give an open, loamy soil containing peat moss or leafmold 
and full sun (with plenty of moisture) or light shade. A good all- 
around performer the country over; space 10 in.

HELENIUM—Russet, Gold, Red, Mahogany Shades 
Reliable and showy summer and fall blooming hardy perennials 
which bring the first display of rich, autumn-tinted blooms to the 
border. There are tall ones and there are short ones and all are 
excellent for garden decoration and for cutting. The modern va- 
rieties below are not demanding in their cultural requirements, re- 
quiring only a rather light or loamy, well-drained soil in full sun. 
Space about 15 inches; lift and reset every third season. 
Chippersfield Orange Each 65c, three $1.60, six $3.00 
A strikingly beautiful variety and, like all Heleniums, very generous 
with its large heads of fall blooms. The flowers are golden yellow 
overlaid with satiny Wallflower red. 4 feet high. 
Moerheim Beauty Each 65c, three $1.60, six $3.00 
A rather recent introduction which stands unchallenged in its height 
and color class. A compact, bushy variety which bears hundreds of 
large, luminous mahogany red and gold blossoms in mid-summer 
just when they are most valuable. Very hardy; height 21/2 ft. 

HELENIUM SUNBURST ...A Masterpiece in Yellow and Gold 
Sunburst (autumnale pumilum) Each 7Oc, three $1.75, six $3.25 
One of our favorites and rated A-1 by experts because of the match- 
less purity of the large yellow blossoms. The interesting center is 
richest gold. Enjoy quantities of these vivacious blooms in your 
garden and as cut flowers in your home. Sunburst begins blooming 
in mid-summer and is superb in combination with blue Aster Fri- 
karti Jungfrau and the white Shasta Daisies. It is hardy and easy 
and the tidy plants are from 11/2 to 2 feet high.

HEUCHERA—Coralbells for Refreshing, Airy Effects 
These modern varieties of Coralbells are notable improvements over 
the older sorts and are prized for their airy gracefulness. From the 
tidy mounds of scalloped leaves pop up a long succession of slender 
sprays of richly tinted blooms from mid-spring to summer. These 
flower stems are 10 to 15 inches long and make captivating old 
fashioned bouquets or striking modern arrangements. Perfect for 
the rock garden they also make ideal low edgings for walks, patios, 
terraces and the like. Give them sun or partial shade and a rather 
rich, loamy soil and have color many months of each year every year. 
Disease-free and ‘’foolproof’’; space 8 in. 
*Garnet Each 75c, three $1.90, six $3.50 
A new variety which we tested and found extremely satisfactory. 
The extra large, open bells are an art shade pink with warm under- 
tones. The plants have splendid character and are prolific producers. 
We know you will like Garnet. 
*Queen of Hearts Each 65c, three $1.60, six $3.00 
Called ‘‘Queen of the Coralbells’’ and such she is! The reddest of 
all and a pure color delight which adds sparks of fire to any garden.

blooms are produced freely over a long period.
