FARQUHAR’S
POT-GROWN
STRAWBERRY
PLANTS.

All the varieties offered are perfect-flowering (bi-sexual) except where marked P. The latter are pistillate and require a row of a perfect-flowering sort

planted every 8 or 10 feet to pollenize their blossoms.

These, if planted in July and August, produce a large crop the next Summer.

Being grown in pots they may be shipped to a distance and planted

with almost no interruption to their growth. The plants may be set in beds of three rows, one foot apart and one foot distant in the rows,

with a space of two and one-half feet between the outside rows of adjoining beds left for a pathway.

rows three feet apart and one foot apart in the rows.

They may also be planted in single

handsome, glossy dark crimson color, and of delicious flavor. It is
one of the best midseason berries, either for private use or market.

but keep bearing until frost. To get the
best results for a late crop, the blossoms
must be carefully kept off until July or

FARQUHAR’S FOLIAGE AND FLOWERING PLANTS.

pinnated fern-like foliage; very lasting. Plants from 3-in. pots,
$3.50 per doz.

BUDDLEIA.

hybrida, Eva Dudley. Mr. E. H. Wilson of the Arnold Arboretum
writes of this new plant as follows:—

“This charming new plant is of hybrid origin, the result of cross-
ing the well-known Buddleia Davidii magnifica and B. asiatica.
A free-growing and extremely floriferous plant, it combines the
good qualities of both its parents. Every shoot and lateral branch
terminates in a cylindrical tail from 6 to 20 inches in length, which
is composed of hundreds of fragrant flowers. The flowers are of
the most delicate lavender pink with intense orange centre. Apart
from its good habit and free-growing and floriferous character,
this new plant is remarkable for the delightful fragrance of its
flowers. A single spray delightfully scents a whole room. It would
appear to me that there is a bright future for this plant, not only
for decorative pot purposes, but also as a cut flower.

“Messrs. Farquhar are to be congratulated on the production
of such a valuable novelty.”

Plants, $1.25 each; $12.00 per doz.

Farquharii. This new hybrid, of our own introduction, is a most valu-

Abies Delavayi.

NEW FIRS FROM CHINA.
Introduced by the Arnold Arboretum.

Abies Delavayi. This is one of the handsomest of the Silver Fir
family. It is also one of the hardiest known in China. Mr. E. H.
Wilson tells us it is known in China by the name Lien-sha, meaning
Cold Fir, in allusion to the fact that the tree grows in cold regions.

Its upright growth and rich deep green foliage make it rival in
appearance the Yew trees of Europe, and we predict that for lands-
cape purposes this Fir will be used to produce the Yew effects here.
$5.00 each.

Abies recurvata. This Fir is of pyramidal habit. The-rich deep
green foliage resembles that of Abies Delavayi, but is strongly re-
curved, which gives the tree a distinct and pleasing appearance. Mr.
Wilson writes: ‘‘In all respects this species is one of the most desirable
of the family; and it was well worth a long journey to introduce it
into cultivation.’ It has proved perfectly hardy and like A. Delavayi
will be a valuable addition to our trees for landscape planting. $5.00
each.

NEW CHINESE SPRUCES.
Introduced by the Arnold Arboretum.

Picea asperata. A quadrangular-leaved Spruce from northwestern
China. Some of the trees are very glaucous in appearance, hence
the colloquial name. Yun Sha (Cloudy Fir). Old trees are very
spire-like in outline. All the varieties of P. asperata are of dense
growth, and the purplish coloring of the young foliage makes them
strikingly beautiful in the early Summer.

Picea asperata var. notabilis. This variety differs from the pre-
ceding, chiefly in the cones, the scales of which are rhombic-ovate in
outline.

Picea asperata var. ponderosa.
able for its large cones.

BULBS FOR EARLY FORCING.

Prices Subject to Change Without Notice.

EARLY ROMAN HYACINTHS.

These beautiful Hyacinths are indispensable to the florist in his Autumn
and Winter cut-flower work; while to the amateur they are among the most
easily cultivated and most satisfactory of flowering bulbs. The white variety,
if planted early in September and gently forced, will bloom in November; the
others require from two to three weeks longer. -

When grown in pots or pans they are most effective planted in groups of
six or more bulbs in each.

White. Mammoth. $1.35 per doz.; $12.00 per 100.

POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS.

A very decorative class of bulbous plants for greenhouse and window
cultivation, but not hardy out of doors in our climate. They may be easily
and quickly forced; our florists frequently have them in bloom by Thanks-
giving.

Early Large-Flowering Paper White. The earliest, largest and most
vigorous form of the Paper White; the best of all for very early forcing;
pure white.

LILIES FOR FORCING.

The bulbs may be potted from August onward in a compost of equal
parts turfy loam, leaf mold, rotted cow manure, and sand. It is best to
start them in pots not exceeding twice their own diameter, in which they
may remain until started eight inches or more. They should be trans-
ferred then to larger pots in which to bloom, exercising great care not to
disturb the roots or break the soil from about them, and setting them con-
siderably deeper in the larger pots. This method prevents the soil from
becoming sour, and enables the roots forming at the base of the stem to
become feeders, greatly increasing the number and size of the blossoms.

FERTILIZERS.

FARQUHAR’S LAWN AND GARDEN DRESSING, 1921.

A good Fertilizer for all garden and farm crops, dry and fine as meal.
The mixture is in good mechanical condition so that it can be applied

required for renovating an old lawn; 400 to 500 Ibs. per acre. Analysis.
Am. 4 per cent. Av. Phos. A. 8 per cent. Pot. 6 per cent.

Price, per ton, $85.00; 500 lbs., $22.00; 100 lbs., $5.00; 50 lbs., $2.75;
25 lbs., $1.75; 10 lbs., $1.00.

Farquhar’s Special Ground Bone. This is made from the best
quality of bone, finely pulverized by improved machinery. It is
far superior to some ground bone in the market, which is often com-

SHEEP MANURE.

A soluble plant-food highly recommended for all purposes where
a first-class fertilizer is required. It is a pure, natural manure, and
has long been recognized as one of the most beneficial. As a top-dress-
ing for lawns it is unequalled. For lawns it should be used at the rate of
500 to 800 pounds per acre. As a fertilizing agent for plants indoors
and in the open garden, it is one of the very best. Price, ton, $58.00;
100 lbs., $3.00; 50 Ibs., $1.85; 25 lbs., $1.35; 10 lbs., 70 cts.; 5 lbs., 40 cts.

CANADA HARDWCOD ASHES.

Ashes lack ammonia and phosphoric acid, but contain potash and
lime, which are essential, not only as plant food, but also as sweeteners
of the soil and solvents of other plant food ingredients. So far as they
supply potash and lime, they are ‘‘nature’s plant food.’’ ‘These things
have been extracted from the soil by the trees, and now we return them
in the shape of ashes. Pure wood ashes is one of the best fertilizers for
top dressing lawns, grass lands, and seeding down, imparting a rich,
dark shade of green; also for fruit of all kinds, especially strawberries,
peaches and apples. 100-i.. bag, $2.50; ton, $42.50.

Clay’s Fertilizer. A lasting, productive, economical fertilizer for
all horticultural purposes. A reliable vitalizing medium for con-
servatory, greenhouse and garden. Highly recommended by leading
