FUCHSIAS. 
Price, 8 cents each. Atty eight for 50 cents, 
FUCHSIA, STORM KING. 
Double Euchsia, Storm Kitig.—This grand plant is of the 
most beautiful habit. The branches, drooping as they do, 
lend the plant a charming grace which is rarely found. The 
buds, for two weeks before they expand, are balls of glow- 
ing scarlet-crimson. The flowers continue to grow larger 
and larger after they expand. The sepals are of the same 
glowing scarlet-crimson as the buds, while the larger double 
corolla is of a delicate waxy whiteness, elegantly penciled 
with a deep and bright crimson. 
Phenomenai,—tThe largest Fuchsia that I have ever seen. The 
tube and sepals are bright coral-red, beautifully formed. 
‘The corolla is neatly two and a half inches across. 
Mottarch.—This new Fuchsia is by far the largest of all the 
single-flowering varieties. It is an exceptionally strong 
grower, bearing immense blooms of a very dark purple. It 
ranks among the singles the same as Phenomenal does 
among the doubles. 
Chatipion of the World.—Color of sepals a bright coral-red, 
corolla violet and dark purple. One of the most beautiful 
and distinct of the Fuchsias. 
Black Prittice.—This is, without question, the very finest Fuch- 
sia grown for the amateur tocultivate. It makes a shapely 
bush, is robust in growth, free from disease and insects, and 
is probably the freest in blooming. I have seen specimen 
plants six feet in height and four feet across loaded with 
thousands of its bright buds and blossoms of a beautiful 
waxy-carmine or pink color, 
Speciosa.—Corolla scarlet, sepals blush. One of the very best 
blooming varieties for either Summer or Winter. 
White Giant.—One of the largest and best white Fuchsias 
grown. Hine form, very double, color a pure white, and su- 
perior to most of the white Fuchsias. I find it to be an ex- 
cellent Winter bloomer. It gives me pleasure to offer this 
grand Fuchsia. 
Enfant Prodigy.—Rich crimson sepals, corolla deep purple. 
The earliest and freest blooming Fuchsia out. 
Clara Belle.—A splendid variety, with large, handsome foliage 
ot a delightful green tint. The flowers are single, of unusual 
size, sepals dark-red, corolla rose-vermilion, tinted violet. 
Jupiter._New. One of the prettiest of all Fuchsias. Large, 
double flowers, of a clear magenta, with dark crimson veins, 
Don’t fail to try it. 
Rosait’s Patrie.—A splendid white variety, in the style of that 
fine variety, Colonel Dominie. A wondertully free bloomer 
and quite early. Tube and sepals rosy-carmine, corolla of 
the purest white. 
General Roberts.—A remarkable, beautiful variety of drooping 
habit. The blooms are from four to five inches in length, 
borne in large clusters, single corolla, of a rich plum color, 
tube and sepals crimson,

CROTONS, 
Nothing can excel the 
beauty and richness of col- 
oring that is found in this 
class of plants. They are 
beautiful pot plants for the 
conservatory, making very 
handsome specimens for 
decorative and exhibition 
purposes, and are now used 
extensively as bedding 
plants, for which purpose 
they are exceptionally well 
adapted. They should be 
planted in full sun in a po- 
sition where they can be 
liberally supplied with wa- 
ter, which develops - the 
most wonderful coloring in 
the foliage. Undoubtedl 
the most interesting an 
showiest bedding in my 
Springfield yards the past 
few years was made with 
this plant.
