Doubk-FWring Mignonette, ^^Red Goliath/^ 



This is the grandest Mignonette ever produced for garden culture, of stocky, candelabra habit, strong growth, 

 luxuriant foliage, healthy and deep-rooting. The average spikes of flowers are immense, measuring G to 8 inches 

 long by 2M inches in diameter, and ai-e compactly filled with giant floret.s, 

 measuring ij inch across and packed full, even in the centre, with 

 anthers or three times as many as the older Mignonettes contain, 

 consequently this variety is correctly called a double Mignon- 

 ette. The color of the florets — flre red — is strengthened on 

 account of the density of the florets and spikes, thus pre.sent- 

 ing almost solid columns of brilliant red, effectively con- 

 trasted against the healthy, rich green foliage. The fra- 

 grance is delightfully rich and powerful. For cutting 

 It is perfection, remaining fresh for 8 to 10 davs In water

"Machct's Perfection'* Mignonette. 



Broad, enormous spikes of very fragrant red flowers 

 on strong and graceful stems, dressed with vigorous foli- 

 age, evenly branched and of a continuous-blooming

'^Moon Flower'' Vine. 



{Ipomea Grandiflora Noctifiora.) 



No one who has a trellis or arbor to cover should 

 neglect to plant The Moon Flower — the most rapid- 

 growing of all annual climbing vines. The vines are literally 

 covered with thousands of immense, pure white fragrant flowers, 

 opening in the evening and remaining open until noon the fol- 

 lowing day, and if cloud.v, all day, many of them measuring orcr 

 seven inches across. Planted in rich ground, in a sunny situa- 

 tion, and given plenty of water, the vines attain a height of 

 seventy-five feet '. Pkt. 10

Imperial Japanese 

 MORNING GLORIES. 



We introduced these grand climbers and they 

 have proved a revelation to many. The robust 

 vines attain a height of from thirty to fifty feet. 

 The foliage is luxuriant, distinct and varied, 

 green, silvery and yellow leaves; many are mot- 

 tled light and dark green, white and gray. 



Bat the surpassing charm of these "Imperial 

 Japanese Morning Glories" lies in the entranc- 

 ing beauty and gigantic size of the flowers; they 

 measure from fpur to five inches across. The 

 colors of the flowers, shadings and markings are 

 linfitless. Some flowers are of deep, rich, velvety 

 colors, others daintily tinted and shaded. There 

 are reds from .soft rose to crimson and garnet; 

 daintiest blue to purple; snow-white to silver- 

 gray. Some are striped, blotched and spotted ; 

 others have magnificent edges and throats. (See
