'Golden Glow.*' 



A hardy perennial pjant grow- 

 ing eight feet high, branching 

 freely, and bearing by the hun- 

 dreds, on long, graceful stems, 

 exquisite double blossoms ot the 

 brightest golden color, and as 

 large as Cactus Dahlias. The 

 ®.£j!l£££££*£$££*££*&£® cut represei-ts a plant in bloom, 



as photographed. Mr. William 

 Falconer, the best authority on plants in this country, says of it: " When 

 I saw the couble-flowering form of Kud^eckia Lacir.iata in bloom in 

 your grounds 1 was amazed, for notwithstanding my long and intimate 

 acquaintance with plants I had never before seen a double-flowered 

 Rudbeckia, and I was delighted with the fulness and gorgeousness of 

 the blossoms and their clear, bright yellow color. You gave me a plant, 

 and it was set out in good garden ground. It grew vigorously, and threw 

 up strong, branching flower st ms six feet high, laden with sheaves ot 

 golden blossoms as large as fair Chrysanthemums, and all having an 

 elegant, graceful appearance, without any stiffness in habit or blossom. 

 Many eminent florists and amateurs have seen it here, and all admired 

 it. As cut flowers the blossoms last well. In fine, I unhesitatingly re- 

 gard it as the mos* desirable introduction among hardy perennials since 

 we got Clematis Paniculata." It is the most effective flowering plant 

 for August and September in cultivation. Price, 10 cents each; 

 three for 25 cents.
