IMPROVED VARIETIES OF 
SWEET ALYSSUM. 
“Carpet of Snow. The old-fashioned Sweet 
Alyssum has been too longa favorite to need any 
introduction here. This new variety emits the 
same honey-like perfume, is of purer white, and 
grows only 2 to 3 inches high and flowers even 
more profusely; in fact, it is a perfect carpet of 
snow throughout the season. We have counted 
as many as 300 heads of pure white flowers open 
on one plant at onetime. For edgings and bed- 
ding this is a very satisfactory little annual.

“ST. BRIGID” ANEMONES. 
Beautiful Irish Poppy-flowered varieties, producing 
abundantly large, single, semi-double and double 
flowers 3 to 5 inches across, of an endless variety of 
colors, from maroon and brightest scarlet to flesh- 
pink, and from lilac to purple. Some are mottled, 
striped, ringed, etc. For cutting they are unsur- 
passed, and in the garden they flower until after

ANTIRRAINUM, Giant-Flowering. 
Theseform brilliant garden beds, flowering prodigiously and continuously the first season from 
seed. Unusually effective bedding displays are made entirely from these noble plants; they grow 
about 2 feet high, are healthy and stocky, and completely enveloped with large snap-dragon 
flowers of splendid texture and substance, rendering them very durable under all conditions of 
weather; their continuous-blooming qualities, ease of culture and independence of heat and 
drought, and pure bright colors, should entitle them to a permanent place in gardens. Although 
perennials, they do splendidly when grown as annuals; spring-sown seed produces flowering 
plants by July, which continue to bloom in increasing profusion until frost. The flowers are 
nearly double the size of the older sorts. Ciant-flowering, Mixed Colors.......... Pkt. 10c.

AQUILEGIA or GOLUMBINE, * sys" 
The flowers of this new strain are greatly enlarged, and the range of colors and shades 
has been increased. They, of course, are hardy perennials, luxuriating in the moister situations 
in the garden, where they form permanent clumps, growing from 1% to 2 feet high. The large, 
unique, long-spurred flowers, gracefully hung on long stems, are not only brilliantly effective on 
the plant, but equally as desirable when cut for vase and house decoration.
