tions of the country but if you are looking for good foliage through 
the early summer and color in the early autumn, plant Blue Mist.

*CERASTIUM (Snow in Summer) 
Tomentosum—This plant attains a height of about 8 to 10 inches with 
silvery white foliage and produces small white flowers in abundance 
in April and May. Will thrive in any sunny location and does par- 
ticularly well in poor soil where other stock will not grow.

tBaden Gold—By far the best single Coreopsis we have seen. The 
large, broadly petaled gold flowers are borne on long, stiff, straight 
stems which assures good cutting material. Blooms from early June 
through September if the first blooms are cut off after fading. When 
better known we feel sure this Coreopsis will replace the older 
single types. Price: 75¢ per plant, $7.50 per dozen.

golden yellow flowers against the dark green foliage. Individual 
flowers about 1% inches across and this particular variety is a very 
useful and ornamental subject. 2 feet tall. June to frost.

brilliant yellow flowers, flowering as they do practically all season

glistening white broad petals, produces the largest flowers of any 
other Shasta in existence. Since it flowers early in June it is a
