CANDYFUFT, VERY DWARF WHITE. 



Perpkt. 



1998 Candytuft very dwarf white. Iberis offinnis (Vilmorins). First-class novelty (an- 



nual and biennial) ; from 4 to 7 inches high, producing large compact bushes, 7 

 to 9 inches large ; finely-cut leaves, which are, when the plant is in bloom, al- 

 most completely covered with a multitude of brilliant white flowers, slightly 

 sweet-scented, very valuable for borders 25 



1999 Chamserops Excelsa. This fine palm, which has attracted so much attention in the 



south of France, where it stands the winter without protection, is considered a 

 valuable addition to this class of plants. See cut 50 



2000 Convolvulus Minor Unicaulus. This variety is the result of at least ten years' care- 



ful selection. It has a single upright stem without a branch; the strength of 

 the whole plant is directed to one point ; and the result is a compact head of 

 flower-buds in great profusion, which expand into blossoms of immense size, 

 of a very rich purplish-blue color, and continues in bloom through the whole 

 season ............... .25 



200IDianthusHeddewegiidiadematusfl.pl. (Double Diadera-Pink). Lorenz. This is 

 a striking novelty of wonderful beauty. It differs- from the D. Heddewegii, be- 

 ing more luxuriant, compact, and dwarfish : its flowers have a diameter of each, 

 2 to 4 inches. They are regular densely double, and have all tints, from lilac, 

 crimson, and purple, to the deepest black purple, having very often a velvet-like 

 tint . .50 



2002 Eschscholtzia alba rosea. Splendid new variety of this general favorite, which 



merits the greatest attention. Its tender blossoms are tinged at the exterior of 

 a rosy pink color, verging sometimes to crimson lake. From the disposition of 

 the flowers to remain closed during the greater part of the day, this color is a 

 very striking one; but the effectof the rose-colored buds half open is also 

 most charming. There is great hope that this variety will become later a quite 

 red Eschscholtzia . . . . ' . .25 



2003 Godeiia Versicolor Grandiflora. A charming rock-plant received from Texas, pro- 



ducing a profusion of flowers in great variety of color, and as large in size as 

 G. The Bride. This annual appears to be identical' with' G. reptans, excepting 

 that the flowers are three tmies as large, and the habit is more procumbent : al- 

 together we can strongly recommend this showy annual for rockwork, and all 

 purposes of a similar nature .' 25 



2004 Helichrysum apiculatum. • This very neat everlasting resembles the plant sold un- 



der the name of H. stritumj but has broader foliage and much larger flowers. 

 Native from Australia . '. . . 25 



2005 Lobelia erecta bicolor. A lovely new variety of the upright Lobelias, its pretty 



flowers tinged half white, half blue 25 



2006 Lupinus spec. ex. Texas lilasinus (supranosus, subcamosus.) New variety of this 



favorite Lupin, with lilac flowers 25 



2007 Mimulus repens. Distinct species, with slender trailing stems with ovate foliage; 



flowers of pale lilac-purple color, the lower lip prettily spotted with orange on 

 yellow ground. Best suited for pot-culture, blooming during the summer 

 months 25 



2008 Myosotis azorica alba. The sky-blue variety of the popular M. azorica was intro- 



duced the past season. We now offer the pure white one, a delicious middle, 

 between the deep dark-blue and sky-blue varieties 50 



2009 Myosotis oblonqata. This Forget-me-not, highly to recommend, is in all its portions 



larger and more vigorous than M. alpestris, but has its flowers of the same fine 

 blue tint. Blooming already the first year if care is taken to sow it early . . .25 



2010 Nasturtion Golden King of Tom Thumbs. This variety is similar in habit to the 



well-known scarlet King of Tom Thumbs, introduced some years since, and 

 vyhich has given the greatest satisfaction. The variety now offered for the first 

 time has deep go'den flowers, thrown well above the dark-colored foliage, and 

 will form a suitable companion and contrast to its predecessor : it will, without
