NEW WEEPING LANTANA, Mrs. McKinley. 



OUR illustration gives some 

 idea of this charming New 

 Weeping La n tan a when 

 planted in baskets, vases or pots 

 for which it is particularly recom- 

 mended ; but it is, if possible, more 

 beautiful still when bedded out. 

 The plant is a neat, handsome grow- 

 er, producing a great abundance of 

 leafy vines, which cover the ground 

 with their pretty foliage, and bear 

 such an immense profusion of 

 lovely, clear pink flowers, that the 

 whole bed seems a sheet of rosy 

 bloom from early Summer till late 

 Fall, Scarcely anything on our 

 grounds attracted more attention 

 last Summer than a bed of this 

 charming Lantana. The flowers 

 are borne in elegant clusters, and 

 hundreds and thousands of them 

 were in bloom all the time. We 

 make prices very low, so as to 

 meet the large popular demand 

 for bedding, window boxes, 

 vases, etc. Price, 10 cts. each ; 

 3 for 25 cts. ; 7 for 50 cts. ; 15 

 for $1.00, postpaid.
