PYRETHRUM (Painted Daisies) 
Like the Shasta Daisies, these are of the Chrysanthemum family. In late spring 
the daisy-like flowers, both single and double, in shades of pink, red and white, 
make a colorful spot in the garden. The plants make mounds of fine-cut foliage 
that is decorative in itself and from which rise the 2-foot flower stems Especially 
desirable for cutting because the flowers last so well. They grow best in full sun 
in rich soil. Mulching the soil with peat moss will encourage summer bloom and 
cutting back the plants after the first crop of bloom will start new growth coming 
along. Plants need to be reset every three years. 7

her beauty. A cool, damp, “woodsy’ spot is needed to grow Violets, with plenty of 
humus in the soil. Here they will bloom freely and return season after season. 
Royal Robe. A glorious, lustrous violet-blue. Flowers open out flat and have a 
delicate fragrance. It will furnish plenty of bloom in early spring and fall 
often more than an inch across. Stiff stems 8 inches long. Hardy, but to be sure, 
it is advisable to give it a winter mulch of leaves or straw. 60c each; 3 for $1.60: 
6 for $2.85. 
White Wonder. Dazzling white flowers of large size cover the plant, held well 
above the foliage. The shiny leaves stay close to the ground. Fine for the rock 
garden and as an underplanting in flower beds. 50c each; 3 for $1.20; 6 for $2.25.

When you go visiting other gardens, get in 
the habit of jotting down the names of plants 
you admire, as a guide for planning your next 
order. 
Colorful effects in a garden depend upon proper selection and placing of 
colors. It is preferable to have a good-sized clump of one variety in perfect 
condition than a smattering of a number of different varieties. ** Look 
before you leap’’—plan before you plant.
