Grand Marigolds. The immense flowers are densely double, 8 to 10 inches 
in circumference, and quilled with the regularity and perfection of a Dahlia. 
A highly meritorious feature is the compact, dwarf habit of the plant, which 
forms dense bushes only 15 to 18 inches high by 2 feet across. For effective 
garden display during the summer and autumn months, nothing can surpass 
the gorgeous masses of color of these grand varieties. (See eut.)

GIANT-FLOWERING MAURANDIAS. 
These are grand improvements over the older well- 
known sorts. Theflowers are fully double the size and 
the plants and foliage are correspondingly larger 
and more robust. We had a row of each of the 
colors offered below, growing on 4-foot pea trellis 
\\ in our grounds the past summer, and they elicited 
praise from all visitors; the vines quickly hid the 
trellisfrom view and hung over 3 or 4 feet, search- 
ing for something else to cling to, and were 
thickly studded with flowers nearly as large as 
Gloxinias. The plants from seed sown in spring 
will begin flowering by July and continue until 
frost. Mixed Colors........................... Pkt. 25

MIGNONETTE. 
This deliciously fragrant flowering plant is the most popular 
annual grown. Mignonette does best in as cool a situation as 
possible. When exposed to the full force of summer heat it begins to form 
seeds, sometimes before the spikes are fully grown; even ournew large-flowering 
varieties under such conditions would not develop their marked improvements.

‘Machet’s ‘‘ Perfection.’’ The editors of the French Revue Horticole (issue 
of July 16, 1895) state: ‘ Recently we observed at the trial fields of Messrs. 
Machet & Josem, growers, Resedas of their new very large-flowering kind, 
which surpassed everything we have seen. Strong and graceful stems, dressed 
with vigorous foliage, equally branched and crowned with flowers of an 
enormous size and of acontinuous blooming habit, rich color and an intense 
perfume rendered this Reseda so much the superior of its class that we felt it 
deserving of special mention, for the perfection and beauty of this flower we 
have never seen equaled before.” (S€€ CUT.) ......00..ccccccoesencnsnecscecncecsoccssscnses 15
