VIOLET BLUE. 



THIS has proved a most charm- 

 ing- plant, both for the window 

 garden and the flower bed ; 

 makes nice bushy little plants, 8 to 

 10 inches high and blooms all the 

 time. The flowers are large, fully 

 two inches across, and lovely deep 

 violet-blue. This is a very favorite 

 color, and it would be hard to find 

 a plant that is easier grown or a more 

 constant and satisfactory bloomer. 

 When Summer is over, take the 

 plants indoors, and they will bloom 

 constantly all Winter. We recom- 

 mend it as sure to please, both for 

 Summer and Winter bloom. Very 

 sweet and handsome. 15 cts. each, 

 2 for 25 cts., $1.50 per dozen.
