RUFFLED and FRILLED JAPANESE 
MORNING GLORIES. 
The perfection of Morning Glories. A type of the Imperiar 
Japanese varieties which we introduced several years ago, 
and which have given such great satisfaction. These have 
immense flowers, often as big as saucers. All wavy, ruffled 
and folded from throat to margin, like crumpled velvet. 
They are simply magnificent; the vinesare strong, ; 
healthy growers, usually with beautifully mottled 
foliage, white and green, and, of course, come to 
perfection the first summer fromspring-sownseed.

“White Obelisk.’’ A very charming Forget- 
mme-not of unique form with pure white flowers 
encircling a yellow eye; the branches all grow 
perpendicularly, and do not bend over, so the 
entire plant appears like a white floral column. 
A very pretty plant for garden or pot culture, 
flowering the first season from seed sown 
early. (See cut on page 103.)...........1.000- Pkt. 25

“‘Star of Blue.’’ A very fine variety, similar in 
habit of growth to the Victorias, but differs 
greatly by its early and long duration of bloom 
and the even compact growth; the trusses are 
large and the individual flowers about 1% inches in diameter—of a
