Specialists in^^ GREENHOUSE GLASS in carload lots or less direct from factory. NO HANDLING. NO BREAKAGE. Annuals at Rew. Throughout the summer a long bolder at the foot of the wall separating the grounds formerly attached to Cambridge C!ottage from the rest of the gardens, has been very gay with a selection of annuals or of plants usually treated as of an- nual duration, says The Gardeners' Mag- azine. They are disposed in good-sized masses or clumps so that the general ef- fect produced by each kind can be read- ily seen. Some of them that were very beautiful a month ago are now decidedly past their best, still, even as late as Au- gust there is a fine show, and that, too, after the exceedingly hot and dry weather that we have experienced. Chief among those still in good condition are: Iberis (candytuft) Empress, a grand variety with massive heads of pure white flowers, and Little Prince, also white, but a smaller grower. The comparative- ly new Rose Cardinal has but a few flow- ers left, but a month ago it showed that it was entitled to rank as one of the finest of the candytufts. Liuaria Crim- son and Gold, the color of whose flowers is well expressed by the varietal name; Convolvulus minor, in its various shades, among which rich blue and purple pre- dominate; Calendula oflBcinalis (mari- gold). Orange King, whose color is indi- cated by its name; and Meteor, pale yel- low, striped with white; Godetia Sunset, one of the most brilliant of all the gode- tias, the color being a kind of dazzling ruby crimson; Matricaria inodora plena, plentifully sprinkled with double white daisy-like flowers; Impatiens Holsti, a true perennial, but it may be treated as an annual. In the border its bright vermilion colored flowers are very ef- fective. Verbena erinoides, a native of Peru, with prettily cut leaves, and clusters
