Erica carnea (an early req) 
We are not sure of the name of this worthy heath. It blooms in January and 
February before the other carneas and has bright red flowers in great pro- 
fusion. It resembles the Sherwood Creeping Heath and like it, is a superb 
ground cover. It is perhaps at its best on steep bainks and terraces but is 
fine in almost any place where low-growing plants are desired for it is 
always lovely, always admired.

Erica hybrida (Dawn) 
One of the attractive new evergreens. Height about 18 inches, foliage soft, 
thick, and much branched. The flowers are large, clustered pink bells. It 
stays in bloom all summer. Hardy, very rare. This variety is a real gem and 
merits the attention given it. It possesses unusual delicacy, both in foliage 
and blossoms.

Erica mediterranea hybrida (Darley Heath) 
This is one of the most attractive and desirable plants in its class grown in 
our nursery. It is hardy and dwarf, seldom reaching more than 1 foot in 
height. It has beautiful, dense, dark green foliage, and from early winter 
to late spring is covered with such a profusion of lovely purplish blossoms 
that the foliage is practically obscured. It is not unusual to see this brave 
little plant blossoming through the snow. Being a winter bloomer, hardy, 
equally good for rockeries, borders, groups and masses, it should be in- 
cluded in every planting.

Erica mediterranea maxima 
An upright heather to 4 or 5 feet. Vigorous grower with fine, very dense 
dark green foliage and producing a wealth of lovely purple tinted flowers. 
In general characteristics it might be thought of as a tall erect form of Darley 
Heath. Fits well into average plantings. Hardy. Blooms through the spring 
season. A gorgeous plant in bloom and always attractive in foliage.

Erica stricta (Corsican Heath) 
Grows 3 to 4 feet high. Has lavender bloom in mid-summer and fine, dense, 
bright green foliage. Native of Corsica. One of the hardiest of the heaths. 
A good landscape subject. It is excellent for use where masses of foliage are 
desired, and for low sheared hedges it has but few equals.
