ECHINOPS TAPLOW BLUE 
Steel-blue globes for the summer garden--— 
This outstanding globe thistle makes wonderful specimen plants for the 
back of the summer perennial border. The globes are larger and of a blue much 
deeper in color than the ordinary echinops ritro, and are not only effective 
garden subjects, but make a long-lasting cut flower. 
Blooming size plants 65¢ each, three for $1.75. (Note: Orders for echinops 
received after May 15 will be held for fall delivery.) ip

Yes, we do have tall bearded iris too, and every year promise ourselves 
we are going to get out a list of them. Maybe it will be this year, amd if we 
do, we'll send you one. This little list is all very informal, but perhaps some 
day we can grow up and send you one on shiny paper with some pictures.
