 bedding purposes.

 roon. It has proved most valuable for massing in open 

 ground.

EULALIA JAPONICA ZEBRINA. 



EULALIA JAPONICA ZEBRINA. 



Unlike all other variegated plants this has its striping or 

 marking across the leaf, instead of longitudinally. It 

 grows from 4 to 6 ft. in height, forming a most striking 

 and graceful plant, resembling nothing else that we know 

 of in cultivation. The expanded flower spike resembles 

 the ostrich plume, and will last for years. Plant entirely 

 hardy. (See Cut). 



1st size, $2.00 each ; 2d size, $1.00 each.

 with rose-colored veins, resembling some varieties of the 

 Fittonia.

 soms. It flowers very freely, doing equally well if 

 planted in the open ground in summer or grown as a pot- 

 plant inside. 



30 cts. each ; $3.00 per doz. 



ERANTHEMUM TUBERCULATA. 



A fine hard wooded plant, with pure white cuphea- 

 shaped flowers, which are delicately perfumed. It is of 

 drooping habit, and is very useful for hanging-baskets, etc.

EUPHORBIA COROLLATA. 



Thisis oneofthe most valuable summer flowering plants.

 est abundance. It is excellent for bouquets, etc., where it 

 takes the place of the Bouvardia in summer, which it 

 somewhat resembles. Perfectly hardy.
