HOSTA DECORATA—tThe blunt plan- 
tain-lily has blunt dark green leaves 
with white edges. The leaves are about 
one foot high and the blade about five 
inches by three inches. In a couple 
of years a small plant makes a rosette of 
leaves two feet across. This rosette of 
leaves of green and white coloring forms 
an excellent end for a flower bed 
against a lawn as the outer leaves bend 
to the ground. The flowers, in the early 
part of August, are fat bells standing 
out at right angles on a two-foot stalk. 
The blossoms of purple have lines of 
white, so that the effect is not a solid 
color. There is a sturdy, substantial 
feeling to this plant. Formerly listed as 
Thomas Hog? ihe 20. The ee $0.50
