GYPSOPHILA 
(Perennial Baby’s Breath) 
A rugged plant in well-drained soil. Its flowers form a 
delicate and beautiful veil. Cut flowers make sensational 
bouquets by themselves; mixed with other flowers they 
form background clouds of white or pink. They are tap 
rooted, cannot be moved. We ship them from 3-inch pots. 
Don’t expect much the first season. After that you can’t 
find a more satisfactory border plant or cut flower. They 
become big plants—most varieties must be kept at least 
2 feet apart.

garden for floral arrangements as Bristol blooms repeat- 
edly if kept cut. Height: 3 feet.

lilies blooming from June to September. The hybridizers 
have gotten to work on the old-fashioned species and 
now we have varieties from softest yellow to almost fiery 
red. Move them any time; they are the toughest plants 
we know about.

Salt Hay For Winter Cover 
In cold climates a light covering of salt hay pro- 
vides the perennial border with perfect protection. 
It should be put on after the ground has frozen 
hard (8-12 inches deep)—to keep the ground 
frozen, not to keep it from freezing. Any shallow- 
rooted plant needs this protection to keep its roots 
from being broken or its crown heaved by frost. 
Put on just enough to shade the ground; be careful 
not to smother plants. Salt Hay is free of weed 
seeds and will last two seasons.
