COLEUS, 

 The Shah." 



This is one of those 

 really fine plants which 

 at times are lost sight 

 of and get out of gen- 

 eral cultivation. One- 

 half of the leaf is 

 i bright crimson ma- 

 roon, and the other 

 half golden yellow, as 

 shown in the cut. Our 

 plants are all finely 

 f~ marked.

COLEUS "SHAH." 



NEW COLEUS, "Golden Bedder." 



This great acquisition gives us at last a pure yellow Coleus 

 that will not burn out or fail under ordinarily favorable con- 

 ditions. Tried side by side with Verschaffeltii it stood as well 

 as that variety, while Oriole and other yellow kinds were almost 

 burnt up. It is short jointed and of compact style of growth, 

 and requires but little "pinching" back to keep in shape in 

 ribbon lines. We sold 30,000 of this variety alone last season. 

 10 cts. each ; 75 cts. per dozen ; §6.00 per 100.

 lines or for massing.
