(//e/;a/ifiu.-i Cucuinenfulius—Dew types.) 

 These improved profuse-flowering, branching 

 single Sunflowers are becoming exceedingly pop- 

 ular not only for showy display in the garden, 

 but for cut flowers. The plants form many 

 branched pvramidal bushes 3 to 4 feet high, 

 bearing from base to summit a continuous suc- 

 cession of flowers from June until frost, verita- 

 ble pyramids of gold. The perfectly fortned 

 single flowers, 3 to 4 inches across, are poised 

 on long, graceful stems, which "vase" beauti- 

 fully. They are easily grown, commencing to 

 flower in a few weeks from seed. (See cut.)

Solanum SeatonHianum. 



\ climbing vine of unusual grace and 

 beautv. Seeds sown by us in April pro- 

 duced thrifty plants which were in flower 

 bv July. Thiee vines completely covered 

 a trellis ten fept high, the tips of the 

 branches gracefully arching out, carrying 

 lovelv light blue flowers in immense pen- 

 dulous panicles, some of them afoot long 

 and fifteen inches in circumference like 

 clusters of Wistarias. They flowered in 

 greatest profusion until killed by frost the 

 lariy-maturing flowers being followed by 

 scarlet seed berries. This vine is also of 



unusual merit

HE.NDE,RSON'S 



Colossal Ten-Weeks' 



TOGKS. 



This magnificent strain is without 

 a rival for oi)en-ground planting, 

 attaining a height of 2i'2 feet. The 

 spikes of bloom are very long, and 

 the individual flowers are enormous 

 in size and very double. 



These popular flowers are easily 

 grown, and are so highly fragrant 

 and of such great beauty and have 

 so many good qualities, that they 

 deserve "a place in ever.v garden. 

 They should be given good rich soil 

 to grow in, and will amply reward 

 good treatment with remarkably 

 large pyramids of bloom : the flow- 

 ers represent a great diversity ol 

 brilliant C(jlor. (See cut.)
