PETER HENDERSOl^ & CO., NEW YORK.— WHOLESALE PLANT LIST. 



NEW YELLOW 

 PARIS DAISY. 



Chrysanthemum Frutescens Hal- 

 lerii Aurea. A very valuable 

 plant for florists' trade, a true 

 yellow Marguerite and indisput- 

 ably the best by every standard of 

 comparison which we have yet 

 seen. The flowers are very large, a 

 pure yellow, no tendency to take on 

 " smut" so fatal to others of the same 

 color. This must become one of our 

 standard flowering plants for the green- 

 house and conservatory, also for mar- 

 ket in tlie spring. Price, $1.50 per doz.; 

 $10.00 per 100. 



New Giant Flowering Heliotrope. 



Efforts to improve the Heliotrope have been persistently made by experts 

 all over the world for a number of years, and at last these efforts have been 

 successful ; realization has surpassed the most ardent expectation. One can 

 scarcely recognize the old garden favorite in its new glorified form. The 

 size of the foliage and its quality is doubled ; the habit of the plant is made 

 compact and bushy instead of being scraggy and sprawling; the size of the 

 flowers is magnified beyond belief, specimen heads measuring ten to ffieen. 

 inches across; the color is better. {See cut.) Price, $1.00 per doz.; $8.00 per 100. 



Note.— We can supply the ordinary Heliotropes, all flue sorts, fragrant, 

 blue, lavender and white, at 50c. per doz.; $4.00 per 100.
