knowledge and are guaranteed to ar- 
rive in good condition. Should any

The season of bloom is from the mid- 
dle of May till September, foliage al- 
ways green and attractive, varying in 
shades of green, in height, in width

Can be transplanted any time the 
ground is not frozen without loss but 
best time to plant is spring and after 
clones have bloomed.

as large as possible for the price and 
all should bloom if planted early in 
season.
