AURICULA PRIMROSES—Most Distinctive in Flower or Out 
Juliana Primrose .. . A Solid Carpet of Bloom 
*Juliae Hybrids—These “rugged individualists’’ are universally 
popular and rank close to Siebolds Primrose in hardiness and ver- 
satility. They form spreading mats of small, toothed leaves, often 
shiny, which become pools of liquid color in early spring. The va- 
rieties below vary in height from a minimum of 2 inches to a maxi- 
mum of 6 inches. They should not be overfed because they lose 
their dwarf habit and their winsome charm. Lift, divide, and reset 
the clumps in freshly prepared soil every third season. Blooming 
time is from late winter to mid-spring; plant in groups

SALVIA—"A Bit of Blue Sky Fallen to Earth” 
If we were asked to select the border perennial with the purest and 
most intense blue flowers, our choice would be Salvia Pitcheri with- 
out a second’s hesitation! Amateurs and experts alike agree that it 
is unrivaled, Pitcheri and azurea are closely related and look almost 
alike except that azurea has frosty, pale china blue flowers. The 
slender, 4 foot stems make upright, bushy clumps with wand-like, 
open racemes covering the top. The narrow leaves are clean and 
durable, adding to the overall effectiveness. But best of all, these 
superb varieties begin blooming in late summer and continue for 
weeks until heavy frosts finally cut them down. Salvias are winter 
hardy and heat and drought resistant. They are not bothered by 
pests and need only an average loamy soil and full sun. Plants set 
15 inches apart in groups will make a picture in your autumn border 
you'll not forget! 
azurea Each 60c, three $1.50, six $2.75 
Translucent light blue, as clear as the autumn skies over them. 
Pitcheri Each 65c, three $1.60, six $3.00 
An amazingly intense, luminous shade of rich blue. Near perfect!
