| EiVIOINE'S QIANT H ELIOTROPES. 



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 suc- 

 cessful ; 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 are 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 fifteen inches 

 across. (See cut.) Price, 15c. each, 4 for 50c, 12 for SI. 25. 



XoTE. — We can supply the ordinary Heliotropes, all fine sorts, fragrant, blue, lavender and 

 white, at 10c. each, $1.00 per doz., $6.00 per 100.
