Sweet Pea Culture. — Seed should be sown in very early Spring to enable the vine to get a strong 

 growth before warm weather comes; don't plant the seed in soil too poor for any other culture, or in 

 a sunless location. They need a free clay loam, moderately rich, freely cultivated. Seed should be 

 planted not less than 2 inches deep, and as the plants become established, bank soil against them, 

 repeating this two or three times throughout the season. Don't over-fertilize. As the flowers come 

 G ALIFORM A GI4NT SWEET PEAS. into bloom, they should be cut off; if the pods are allowed to form, the plants will stop blooming.

 they were the largest and finest I have ever seen. As for the Cosmos, J cannot

 admired by many of my neighbors. Geo. I. Richardson, General Agent,

 of bloom, combined with handsome, massive foliage, accomodating habit; 

 and easy culture, render them one of the most popular hardy plants

 herbaceous plants in borders and wild gardens.

JAPANESE IRIS. 



(IRIS KAEMPFERII.) 



These magnificent Iris are among the most beautiful of our summer- 

 flowering plants, and are becoming more popular every season. They 

 commence blooming about the middle of June, and continue for five or six 

 weeks. Many of these flowers measure from 10 to 12 inches in diameter, 

 and rival the Orchids in their rich colorings and markings. The collection 

 offered were selected while in flower, from the best Japanese introductions. 

 While this Iris succeeds in almost any soil or condition, it delights in a rich, 

 deep, moist position. 



(A whole page could be used up in an effort to accurately describe these 

 beautiful Iris. All have six large petals unless otherwise specified. Send for 

 list. Order by number.

Gentlemen : — Your superior Mixture of Sweet Peas ate without exception

 bloom during the entire season. The colors were simply immense, at least 40 

 different kinds could be easily selected, tanging from White, through all the 

 lighter and darker shades of Pink, Red, Blue, Deep Maioon, etc. Jt seemed 

 for each bloom we cut, two more came. It is a pleasure to recommend to others
