green vein running through the center of the leaves. The young plants do
not show the white at first, but develop the variegation after a short time of
growth. About 80 per cent, will come true — the balance being the plain
green-leaved variety. Soil not too rich is advised Pkt. 25c.
ARTEMESIA or "SUMMER FIR"
This new ornamental foliage plant (Saccorum viridis) intro-
duced from China is an annual and owing to its fast
growth reaches its full size the year of sowing. It
forms grand pyramidal bushes 3 to 5 feet high.
As a solitary plant it looks like a nicely devel-
oped Christmas-tree. As a pot plant it is
also very pretty. It may be successfully
grown in groups and in borders, similar
to the Summer-Cypress (Kochia tricho-
phylla). The color of the finely-
pinnated foliage is rich dark green.
Its resistance to drought and heat
is remarkable. Cut branches last
very long and may be used for
wreaths, decoration, etc. For its
easy culture and availability
this novelty is warmly recom-
mended Pkt. 10c.

early summer to autumn . . .Pkt. 10c.
