. Ankmone Sylvestris, Anemone Queen Charlotte. ANEMONES. (WiiKlflower.) Japanese Varieties. The varieties of Ane- mone Japonica are among the most desirable of our hardy perennial plants. Com- mencing to flower in August, they continue to increase in beauty until cut down by heavy frost late in the fall, frequently flowering as late as the middle of November. They delight in well- â enriched soil, where they can be liberally supplied with water during hot weather. <Queen Charlotte. Nothing in the way of new peren- nial plants pleased us so much last summer as this grand new Anemone, which we consider the greatest acquisition in this class of plants for many years. The plant is of strong robust growth, much more vigorous than any of the old varieties, and commences to flower at least four weeks earlier than these. The flowers, which are large, semi-double, frequently measure 4 inches across and are of that pleasing shade of pink peculiar to the La France Rose, a color that is not often met with in hardy perennials. Awarded a certificate of merit by the I'enna. Horticultural Society. (See cut.) 25 cts. each; $ per doz. doupe D'Argeilt. Another new variety, with very large double creamy-white flowers; entirely distinct from Whirlwind, the flowers assuming a semi-globular shape like an incurved Chrysanthemum. 35 cts. each; $ per doz. â¢Japonica Alba.
