the single, but its trusses are much longer and the florets double. 
Price, 10c. each, $1.00 per doz., $6.00 per 100. 
We can also furnish Single Tom Thumb, Variegated and Sweet Alys- 
sum at same price. 
ANTHEMIS CORONARIA FL. PL.

It is a perfect mass of rich golden yellow flowers the whole year round, 
being equally useful in winter as insummer. Price, 15c. each, 4 for 
50c., $1.50 per doz., $8.00 per 100. 
ANEMONE, WHIRLWIND. 
A new semi-double form of Anemone Japonica Alba, which is sup- 
i posed to be a cross between this beautiful variety and A. Japonica 
4 Rosea. In general style and habit it is identical with the white 
BW J q anesé i [e-[eaveld AuTi Anemone. It is of the same strong habit of growth, and is even more 
e | free-flowering than the original type. The flowers, which are 24 to3 
| inches across, have several rows of pure white petals, and have the 
advantage of lasting much longer than the single varieties. We con- 
sider this a good acquisition, and cannot recommend it too highly. 
Price, 25c. each, 5 for $1.00. (For other Anemones see page 148.) 
(The above illustration was made from a plant in our grounds.) 
This is a strong rival to a Japanese maple; in fact, at first glance, it might be 
mistaken for one. For massing in groups or in long borders for single speci- 
mens, either in the garden or greenhouse, for any and all decorative purposes, 
it cannot be surpassed. It is a most striking decorative foliage plant, with 
beautifully variegated leaves of good size, regularly and evenly marked with 
white and green. Amid these leaves the gracefully drooping, orange-colored 
flowers are produced in great abundance, forming aclear and brilliant contrast. 
(See cut.) Price, 20c. each, 3 for 50c., $2.00 per doz. ‘ 
A_ grand contrast to this is STROBILANTHES offered on page 
146, one of each for 40c., 2 of each for 75c., 6 of each for $2.00, 12 of each for $3.50.
