90 AMATEUR CULTIVATOR'S GUIDE 



SPLENDID ASSORTMENTS 



OF 



FRENCH AND GERMAN FLOWER-SEEDS. 



We invite the attention of our numerous customers to the following list of assortments of flower- 

 seeds. They have all been selected expressly for us, by our special correspondents in France and 

 Germany, from the various noted flower-seed growers, whose well-known reputation is a sure 

 guaranty of their superior excellence, both as regards distinctness of color, and freshness of seed. 

 We have no hesitation in recommending them as equal, if not superior, to any to be obtained in 

 Europe. Our Asters are, many of them, of our own growth ; and the best guaranty we can give of 

 their extra quality is the award of the highest premium of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society 

 for the best thirty flowers exhibited in 1865, and EVERY YEAR but FOUR for the previous twenty 

 years ; and this, too, in competition with the choicest French seeds.
