" CALCEOLARIA BURBIDGETIL, 
This remarkable new species grows toa height of six feet, forming a dense, erect bush. The foliage is of 
rich green surmounted by erect trusses of clear canary yellow flowers. As a bedding plant it was conspicuous in 
the London parks last summer, frequently forming a centre surrounded by French Cannas. In the United 
States it will doubtless thrive best in partial shade or where the soil is rather moist. 
It is also grown extensively as a winter decorative plant in 5 or 6-inch pots, in which the height is diminished 
to 3 or 4 feet. Each, .25; doz., $2.00; per 100, $12.00. Delivery in May. 
LOBELIA TENUOIR. 
A beautiful new species growing to 12 or 15 inches in height, and with stems and foliage of the same delicate 
appearance as the dwarf bedding varieties. The flowers are of bright cobalt blue about an inch in diameter, borne 
on erect branching sprays. It is valuable as a bedding plant and for cut flowers. Doz., $1.50; per 100, $10.00. 
Delivery in May. 
VERBENA ELLEN WILMOTT. 
During last winter this new large-flowered white Verbena was grown extensively in Hamburg, Germany, for 
cut-flower use. Verbenas thrive so well in our climate that this novelty is likely to prove of great value both for 
bedding purposes and cutting. It has not produced seeds, and its propagation is by cuttings only. Doz., $1.50; 
per 100, $10.00. Delivery in May.
