An entirely distinct species which has attracted much attention in our grounds the past four seasons by its unique habit of growth, its great floriferousness, and its lateness in flowering. It forms a circular cushion-like plant 2^ feet across the centre of the plant, rarely exceeding 9 inches in height, gradually tapering to 3 or 4 inches at the outside; the flowers, of delicate, soft mauve, with silvery white reflec- tions, measure over 1^ inches in diameter, and are produced in such lavish profusion as to completely cover the plant; the blooms begin to expand early in October, but are not at their best until November. 35 cts. each; $ per doz. BAPTISIA (False Indigo) Australis. A strong-growing plant, about 2 feet high, with dark green, deeply cut foliage, and spikes of dark blue flowers in June and July. 30 cts. each; $ per doz.
