the most charming introductions, the plants fairly

 bedding plant it is invaluable, and every one who

SALVIA SPLENDENS, IMPROVED BONFIRE. 



No. 7076. Salvia Splendens Improved Bonfire. 



Of the many varieties of Salvia Splendens now in 

 commerce, we know of none quite equal to this. 

 It forms a dense bush about three feet in height, 

 with each of its numerous branches terminating in 

 a long shaggy spike of rich dark scarlet flowers. 

 The tip of the spike, by reason of its length and 

 fullness has a slightly drooping habit which im- 

 parts to the plant a most graceful appearance. 

 Packet of about 200 seeds, .25.
