Calycinum Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00, 100 $85.00 
This is a most valuable variety because it can also be used as a ground cover 
for both sunny and semi-shady places. The underground runners are produced 
so freely as to completely cover the ground; at the tops the golden yellow 
flowers shine like jewels. Its height is about 12 te 18 inches. We recommend this 
as one of the best and hardiest. 
Hidcote Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.60 
From the famous Hidcote estate in England we obtained this fine variety a few 
years ago. It grows into a twiggy shrub apout 18 inches tall and about the same 
diameter. Throughout the summer, it is covered with bright yellow cuplike flowers 
about 2 inches in diameter. In cold winters, it freezes back to the ground but 
this does not matter because it springs up from the base producing each summer 
its masses of blooms. A fine shrub for the foreground in the border in cold 
climates. In the temperate parts of the country it will reach a height of about 
3 to 4 ft. Flowers are fragrant and appear late June continuing until mid-October.

YpEeucum, ae urNqgo Patent No. 568) Hypericum, Sungold 
A hardy, shapely, dwarf shrub which grows into an almost completely hem 4 : / 
oval shape of 21% to 3 feet in diameter, and about 18 to 24 inches in 
height, densely covered with foliage that is handsome throughout the 
summer. It bears its cymes of golden flowers at the end of every shoot 
of the summer’s new growth. It flowers more freely and much 
longer than any of the Hypericum Patulum now in general use. Its flow- 
ers are bigger and produced in immense quantities, transforming the 
lovely plant into a small mound of gold when in full bloom. 
Of particular interest and value is its exceptional hardiness. In our 
nursery tests over five years it has proven its ability to withstand cold 
weather as well as outgrow and outbloom any Hypericum we have ever 
seen, The average size of bloom is from 21% to 3 inches in diameter. 
Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.00
