1661 Celosia Pyramidal is Versicolor Var Hybrids Foliis Atrobruneis. A variety believed 



to be a hybrid of C. Versicolor and C. Nana Aurantica. It is distinct from the former 

 by its darker colored leaves, and its flower-trusses, which have a tinge of orange. A 

 pretty foliaged plant, which will produce a great effect in beds 25 



1662 Cedronelia Cana. A fragrant foliaged plant, with long spikes of deep purple flowers, 



retaining the purple hue of the calyxes for a long time after the flowers have fallen ; 

 allied to Gardoqyia Betonicoides ; flowering abundantly the first season if sown early.

 nial 25

1665 Chrysanthemum, Dunnetti, New Double Golden. A seedling from the annual 



Chrysanthemum tricolor, with flowers as double as Truffaut's Pasony Aster ; color 

 bright golden yellow, similar in habit and bloom to the C. Dunnetti ; double white ;

flowers orange, bordered with a broad scarlet ring ; a beautiful design . . . .25 



1667 Louise Honors ty. Charming miniature, raised from the Pompon tribe ; but so 



widely different that we consider it a forerunner to an entirely different class of sum- 

 mer-flowering Chrysanthemums. This plant forms perfectly round tufts, from ten to 

 twelve inches high, by fifteen to eighteen through. The small flowers, of purplish 

 rose, shading off to white towards the centre, are produced in such quantity that the 

 whole plant forms a single bouquet .50 



1668 Japonicum. flore pleno. New double Japanese fancy varieties. This new 



tribe of Chrysanthemum is particularly recommended, as, from its sportive character, 

 we feel convinced that the plants raised from seeds will always vary in the shape and 

 color of their flowers, constantly producing new varieties 50 



1669 Carinatum Atrococcineum. Blooming in the most various shades, from light 



scarlet to dark blood-red. Very beautiful. Hardy annual . . . . .10

great charm consists in being as perfectly double as the Truffaut's Paeony Aster.
