HOSTAS GR PLANTAIN LILIES 
The Hostas are excellent for edging 
borders, mass planting or in front of 
shrubbery. If you have a shady spot 
under trees that seems devoid of inter- 
est, then by all means try some of these 
interesting plants for they are at their 
best grown in such a location where 
their large sturdy leaves seem almost 
tropical in growth and very decorative. 
The racemes of bell like flowers of lilac, 
blue lavender, and white rise well above 
the foliage. 
Shipment Early Spring or Early Fall

HOSTA DECORATA—The 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
