Anemone Japonica (Japanese Windflower) These beautiful Windfiowers are among the most important hardy plants. While they begin Ijlooming in August they are more especially valuable on account of their continuing in full beauty till cut down by hard frost. All are excellent for cutting, lasting in good condition for many days. The plants grow 2 to 3 feet high, arc perfectly hardy if given the protection of 2 or 3 inches of leaves or litter during the winter, and, while they respond freely to liberal feeding, they will succeed in any ordinary garden soil, increasing in beauty from year to year. They can be used in solid beds or borders or clumps planted through the hardy border, which they brighten during the late fall months. _/^ ^v iNCHUSA ItALICA, DrOPMORE VARIETY Japonica Alba.
