New Dwarf Hardy Candytuft. Little Gem. A dwarf, close-growing compact plant, very free-flowering, becoming perfectly covered with its pure white blossoms ; is very hardv and evergreen. Well adapted for the rockery, border and bedding out. Also for pot culture. 25 cts. each ; $ per doz. Ceanotlius Gloire de Plantieres. Very few of the Ceanothus have found their way into general cultivation, owing principally to the fact that most of the varieties heretofore introduced have been very tender. In this new variety is combined almost entire hardiness, a flight protection around the roots, which may be omitted if planted in a sheltered position, being sufficient to carry them over successfully, while the flowers are of large size and of a most desirable shade of lavender-blue. The shrub-like plant grows about 3 feet high, and begins to bear its graceful and airy heads of flowers early in June, continuing through the greater part of the Summer.
