.oop.,sp.es-5plendens 



A splendid new large flowering Salvia 

 (Scarlet Sag-e); bears three times as many 

 flowers as the ordinary Salvia Splendens, the 

 flower spikes being so heavily laden they droop 

 gracefully with their own weight. It is exceed- 

 ingly handsome and desirable for lawn or gar- 

 den, whether planted singly or in groups with 

 other flowers. The flowers are intense daz= 

 zling scarlet, and are borne in endless profu- 

 sion until late in the Fall — one of the most 

 beautiful Autumn-blooming flowers you can 

 have. Pkt. 75 seeds 8 cts.

New Petunia 



"Snow Ball" 



We take pleasure in recommending this 

 beautiful "Snow Ball " Petunia. The illus- 

 tration is a reproduction from photograph 

 showing its dwarf bushy habit and abundance 

 of bloom. The flowers are pure snow white, 

 of good shape and size, sweet scented and 

 lasting. It stands heat and drought well and 

 has few equals among pure white flowers. 

 For beds and borders should be extensively 

 planted. Sure to please. Pkt. 6 CtS.
