Anemone September Charm 
ACONITUM (Monkshood) 
+Fischeri—A fine hardy variety with dark blue flowers in Sep- 
tember and October, 2-3 feet in height. The Aconitums do 
well in a shady or half shady location. 
ANEMONE (Windflower) 
One of the best of the Fall blooming plants, for use as cut- 
flowers or where one requires a show spot in the garden. 
These plants do equally well in sun or shade; they bloom 
from early September until cut down by the frost. 
+Alice—When the flowers first appear they look like Roses, and 
when they are expanded the silvery petals are suffused with 
bright carmine. Height, 3% feet. 
*+Deep Rose—A very pleasing shade of deep rosy pink with 
about three rows of petals surrounding its rich golden center. 
Pe or less cup shaped and a lovely cut flower subject. 2 
eet. 
*Queen Charlotte—A large semi-double flowering Anemone of 
the pleasing shade of La France pink. Very different from 
the average run of Anemones in color. 
+September Charm—A lovely variety, a cross between Anem- 
one Hupehensis and Queen Charlotte, combining the good 
qualities of both. Flowers of lovely silver-pink, shaded with 
rose and mauve, are produced in great profusion from Sep- 
tember to hard frost. Height, 2 feet. 
+ Whirlwind—Semi-double, pure white. Height, 312 feet. 
ANCHUSA (Alkanet) 
+*Myosotidiflora—This Dwarf Anchusa comes into bloom in 
May-June, and continues blooming for about six weeks. The 
flowers somewhat resemble Forget-me-nots but are the bril- 
liant blue of the tall Anchusa. It grows about 1 foot high 
and is admirably adapted to rock garden borders. 
**ANTHEMIS (Hardy Marguerite) 
Moonlight—A fine compact and upright growing variety ob- 
taining a height of 2-2'% feet, and literally covered through- 
out the Summer months with quantities of pale lemon yel- 
low Daisy-like flowers about 24% inches in diameter. Excel- 
lent for cutting as well as a fine showy variety for the hardy 
border. 
ARTEMISIA (Southernwood) 
+Silver King—A very useful plant, growing about 3 feet high 
and blooming in early Summer. Producing beautiful sprays 
of mistlike flowers with silvery gray foliage adding an effect 
of lightness among the green foliage of other Perennials. 
HARDY ASTERS (Michaelmas Daisy) 
These lovely Fall flowering subjects, which are natives of 
North America and absolutely hardy in any section of the 
country, deserve much more extensive cultivation. The fol- 
lowing varieties are well worthy of a place in every garden, 
since they are so distinct in type and novel in colors. The 
size of the flowers may be very greatly increased if the 
clumps are divided each Spring, and each plant grown to a 
single stem. The central growing tip should be pinched out 
to induce branching. This makes a sturdy plant that requires 
very little support and controls the height. 
Blandin White—Pure clear white, many flowers. Large flower 
with wide petals. Height, 2-3 feet.
