growing alongside of white Phlox. Plant

MERTENSIA - Virginia Cowslip; Blue 
Bells—Ali are medium growth, and well 
suited for shady or partially shady bord- 
ers. Mostly blue or white-flowered. The 
only one we really recommend is Mer- 
tensia virginica. 
CULTURE—AIll will succeed in ordin- 
ary soil. A shady or partially shady

open woddlands together with daffodils. 
Plant in autumn or very early spring, 
6 to 8 inches apart.

ing plant, growing about 1 to 14% feet 
high with blue flowers fading to pink;

LIRIOPE 
Perfect Groundcover 
One of the most pleasing, satisfactory 
evergreen groundcover and rock garden 
plants, for sun or shade, is the Creep- 
ing Liriope, or Lilyturf, L. spicata. It 
spreads rapidly, has grass-like foliage, 
and, with its spikes of little blue flowers, 
is about 10 in. high. The foliage is a 
dense spread of green. The flowers ap- 
pear in July and August, but the plant 
looks well the year round. It grows 
where grass won’t do well, and meets a 
great need beneath trees. __ Each $0.50 
NEW ENGLISH PHLOX 
SIR JOHN FALSTAFF (Another English 
Triumph)—A giant among Phlox and 
unquestionably the most outstanding va- 
riety we have seen. It is so far in ad- 
vance of all others that we predict it 
will retain the lead for a very long time 
to come. Color is a rich luminous sal- 
mon-pink, one of the loveliest colors in 
the floral pageant of summer. Individ- 
ual “pips” are larger than a five-shilling 
piece, about 1% inches in diameter. The 
flower truss is truly massive—there is 
no other Phlox comparable in size. Sir 
John Falstaff has a first-class habit 
and a constitution as befits the name— 
robust, vigorous, with sturdy stems and 
bold substantial foliage. And as to 
growth—it is one of the most accom- 
modationg we know. Height 24 to 36 
inches depending on soil conditions. 
Each $9.75 
WHITE ADMIRAL—Beautiful big heads 
of bloom like great mounds of snow. 
Here is a brand-new white Phlox guar- 
anteed to bring more beauty to your gar- 
den. It produces enormous pure white 
heads and the continually breaking side 
branches give an excellent late bloom. 
Reaches a height of 2 to 2% ft. and 
blooms profusely in July and August. 
It is delightfully fragrant. __ Each $0.55
