N&W HA.RDY WjHXT^jB PINK, 



"HER MAJBSTy." 



After repeated efforts we succeed in successfully importing this 

 grand novelty from England, where it is held in the highest esteem 

 by the best authorities. It is unquestionably one of the finest 

 varieties of this century, and one that will hold its own as long as 

 Pinks are cultivated. It is far ahead of anything yet seen, and all 

 the old white varieties will sink into insignificance by the side of 

 this great beauty. It has become one of the most popular of the 

 day, and is grown by the acre to supply the demand for cut flowers. 



It was awarded nine first-class certificates at various exhibitions 

 in England, which is an unprecedented list of honors and the 

 greatest number of certificates ever awarded for a plant of like 

 character. (See cut.) 



Price, large clumps, 50 cts. each, $4.50 per doz. Young plants, 

 25 cts. each, $2.25 per dozen. 



PLUMBAGO LARPENT/E. (Hardy.) 



A plant of dense, spreading habit ; blue flowers in greatest pro- 

 fusion ; valuable for cutting. 20 cts. each, $2.00 per dozen. 



PLUMBAGO COCCINEA SUPERBA. 



A splendid flowering plant, bearing sprays of bright red 

 flowers, very attractive and of great value as a pot plant 

 for conservatory decoration. It grows freely in the open 

 ground in the summer, and can be lifted up and potted in 

 the fall for winter blooming. The foliage is large and 

 handsome, deep green, with light bronze green on the 

 young leaves. This is a most showy, desirable and 

 attractive plant in every way, and should be in every 

 collection. 25 cts. each, $2.25 per dozen. 



We can also furnish Alba, white, and Capensis, blue. 

 20 cts. each, $2.00 per dozen. 



SEEDLING PETUNIAS. 



Henderson's Selected Strain. 



In the whole range of what are known as "bedding 

 plants " there is not one that can be said to excel in genuine 

 usefulness the Petunia. They are of the easiest culture, 

 growing in any soil that will maintain plant life, and produc- 

 ing the most showy flowers in the greatest profusion. The 

 variety of uses they can be put to is extraordinary — baskets, 

 vases, beds, borders— in any and every situation they find a 

 congenial home. We offer plants grown from seed. Double 

 Petunias (from seed), 15 cts. each, $1.50 per dozen, $10.00 per 

 100. Single Petunias (from seed), 10 cts. each, $1.00 per 

 dozen, $6.00 per 100. (See also page 126.) 



JPJLSSIJFLORA.S. (Passion Flower.) 



John Spalding. White flowers, foliage prettily marked with bright 

 golden yellow. Pfordtii. Deep purple. Constance Elliott. 

 Beautiful variety ; flowers 3 to 4 inches in diameter and pure ivory 

 white ; deliciously fragrant. Cerulea. Similar to the preceding,

HERBACEOUS PMONIAS. (Hardy.) 



Magnificent hardy plants, almost rivaling the Pose in brilliancy 

 of color and perfection of bloom. They thrive in almost any soil or 

 situation, and when planted in large clumps on the lawn make a 

 magnificent display of flower and foliage. Some of the varieties are 

 very fragrant. They are perfectly hardy, require little or no care, 

 and produce larger and finer blooms when well established. We 

 offer white, rose and crimson. Price, 30 cts. each, for strong 

 flowering roots.
