PETER HENDERSON" & CO.— FLOWER SEEDS. 



^BROWALLIA. PerPkt. 



It 'is only within a few years that the great value of the 

 Browallia as a bedding plant haa been shown. It is now 

 considered indispensable in all massing and ribbon-line gar- 

 dening: indeed, for all bedding purposes, it is used almost 

 as freely as the Coleus. It is easily reproduced from seed, 

 and requires no special cultivation. Ha'f-hardy Annua's.
