Eulalia. JAPONIC A — A hardy perennial from Japan, with long, narrow leaves striped with green and white, thro\^'ing tip stalks fotir to six feet high, terminating with a cluster of flower spikes on which the individual flowers are ar- ranged : the flowers are stirround- ed long, silky threads,which, when fully ripe, or when placed in a warni room, expand, giving the whole head a most graceful and beautiftil appearance, not unlike that of an ostrich feather curled. These dried flowers are valuable as parlor ornaments, as they retain their beauty a long time. JAPOXICA ZEBRIXA—This is one of the most striking and distinct plants in cultivation. Unlike most plants with variegated foli- age, the striping^ or marking is across the leaves instead of longi- tudinally, the leaves being striped every two or three inches by a band of yellow one-half inch ^vide. Late in the fall it is cov- ered with flower spikes, that re- semble ostrich plumes in shape, which, when cut and dried, make handsome ornaments for the house in winter. It is perfectly hardy and when once planted, will increase in beauty from year to year. Should be in every col- lection. Helianthus Multiflorus Plenus. A beautiful, hardy plant, growing to the height of 3 to 4 feet: flowers a rich golden yellow : very double and as large as a meditmi-sized Dahlia. Much prized as corsage flowers. It begins to bloom in Julv and continues until frost. A bed of these on our grounds the past season was the admiration of all who saw it. Iris—Many varieties. Iberis. ^ CANDYTUFT — Has small white flowers from June to August. Much tised for bouquets. SEMPERVIREXS — A shrubby variety, perfectly hardy; blooms very early in Spring. Lichnis. ALBA (,
