VEKONICA.-Blue Gem. 



A very beautiful, shrubby Veronica; its growth is remarkably dense and dwarf, 

 never exceeding fifteen inches in height, with small, box-like leaves, yielding a pro- 

 fusion of bright, mauve-colored flower-spikes, which are coutiuued in succession through 

 the Summer months. Very desirahle. 



Price, 75 cents each ; $6 per dozen. 



VIOLETS, SWEET SCENTED .-{See Cut, page 62.) 



The varieties named below are the leading ones used here for forcing during the

 items in the formation of Winter flowers.
