Lychnis fuljjens and L. Haageana flowerin July and August, are most desirable dwarf plants but require a sheltered, half shady position. Salvia pratensis, with its long, semi-procumbent spikes of deep purplish blue flowers, keeps up a succession until fall. Cam- panula Garganica, a very dwarf compact growing plant is literally covered with light blue, white-eyed flowers in July and August. C. rotundifolia bloomscontinu- ously until late fall, if we take the trouble to remove the older flower stems. C. punctata produces its large white bells, beautifully marked on the inside, well into August, although it begins in June. C. glomerata and the darker veriety, C. dahurica, are generally good to the end of July and will furnish a second crop later on if the stems are cut down promptly after flowering. C. urticifolia alba plena is a most desirable variety of that species for July blooming. Erodium Manescavi is good early and late in a rather sunny situation. The somewhat dwarfer and more compact E. macradeniuih, with white and violet flowers, will endure partial shade with- out injury. Veronicaincana flowers dur- ing July and August. The dwarf Achillea tomentosa aurea blooms until late fall. Stokesia cyanea begins to flower in July on the older plants; young stock comes on later. Viola cornuta and V. perennis continue in good shape where it is not too dry and sunny. Heucherasanguinea and its varieties only need an occasional removal of old stems to insure a continu- ous succession of bloom until autumn. Papaver alpinum and P. nudicaule will do well throughout the season if not in too moist a position. P. pilosum, with larger, pale red flowers, blooms in July and August. Several of the
