The fruits, gourd-like and ebony-black, are odd and attractive. $1 each. VrDR. E. M. MILLS. Primrose. The color is light primrose, with pink suffusion that becomes more pronounced in the later blooms. Flowers come singly all along the stem, like holly- hocks. $1 each. ⢠YORK AND LANCASTER. Damask. Striped white and red. Makes an unusually attractive, perfectly hardy, unique and historical hedge for old-fashioned places. Buds and flowers are wonder- fully striped, white and red, while occasionally they are all red. It is reminiscent of the "War of the Roses" in England between the Royal houses of York and Lancaster, its color representing the white of the Yorkists and the red of the Lancastrians. Valuable alike for its fragrance, its romantic age, and associations. The true stock has become so rare that until recently it was on the verge of ex- tinction. $1 each.

The foliage is bright green, rough, and curiously wrinkled. They require little attention beyond thinning out the dead wood and keeping them in bounds and make/me hedges and enclosures for the Rose-garden, or backgrounds in shrubbery, or as single specimens. As they are indestructibly hardy, they will grow almost anywhereâeven on barren, wind-swept slopes and seashore sand. ⢠AGNES. New, 1927. Yellow. A worthy yellow Ru
