NASTURTIUM. 



NASTURTIUM. 



New Climb- 

 ing Hybrids 

 of Madame Gunter— After another season's 

 trial we have no hesitation in saying that this 

 class of Nasturtiums are well worthy of a place 

 in every garden, they can either be used to cover 

 trellises or rock work, or by pegging down the 

 shoots a very handsome bed can be had from 

 them. In this variety we have a range of color 

 hitherto unknown in Nasturtiums, running 

 through shades of rose, salmon, bright red, pale 

 yellow, etc., either as self colors or spotted and 

 striped. The dark colored foliage contrasts 

 finely with the rich and varied colors. They 

 are free and continuous bloomers and are of the 

 easiest cultivation. Pkt., 10 cts.; Spkts. for 25 

 cts.; per )£ oz., 20 cts.; per oz., 35 cts. 



LOBB'S NASTURTIUM. 



Tropaeolum Lobbianum — Very beautiful 

 climbers, flowering most profusely; very useful 

 for covering verandas, trellis and rustic work. 

 The leaves and flowers are smaller than the tall 

 Nasturtiums, but their brilliancy and richness 

 of color, combined with the profusion of their 

 bloom, render them more fitting for vases, rock 

 work, etc. H. H. A. 6 feet.

These are without doubt the most admired of any of our summer flowering 

 plants, and succeed well in any good garden soil, even under the most ordi- 

 nary condition of culture. Light or gravelly soils produce the best results, 

 for in rich soils they show a tendency to run to leaf. Nothing can equal the 

 tall varieties as cover for fences, verandas, or unsightly outhouses. They 



flower profusely, giving an immense blaze of color, which greatly tends to heighten the appearance 



of the garden.
