SWEET PEA. 



Pink Cupid. 



A remarkable novelty and like 

 ii'ie White Cupid introduced two 

 years ago does not have any ten- 

 dency to climb, but branches out 

 from the root forming a plant from 

 1^ to 20 inches in diameter, growing 

 from 6 to 8 inches high. The stems 

 are about 6 inches long, bearing 

 near their end 3 or -4 handsome 

 blooms which open full at once. 

 The standards of the flowers are 

 bright rose-pink while the wings 

 are pure white or delicate pink. 

 The plants are remarkably vigor- 

 ous and hardy with handsome 

 dark green foliage and undoubtedly 

 will become a very popular bedding 

 plant. Price per package (12 

 seeds), 15c. ; 2 packages, 2.5c.

 usually 8 to 10 petals and often 12 to 1-5 which are more spread- 

 ing than single varieties. There is the same range of colors as 

 in tlie single, and like all double flowers thej' remain longer in 

 perfection than the singles, the blooming season lasting fully 3 

 mouths. Per package, 35c. ; 3 packages, f 1.00.

 ula Obconica and like that sort is a profuse blooming and easily 

 grown sort. The flowers are as finely fringed as the Chinese 

 fringed Primrose and are delightfully fragrant, borne on long 

 stems which render them valuable for cutting and of excellent 

 keeping qualities; also much valued for a pot plant. Per

MIGNONETTE, NEW 

 YORK MARKET. 



This strain is without 

 doubt the finest Giant Mig- 

 nonette for exhibition pur- 

 poses on the market to-day. 

 The lieads are extremelj- long 

 and densely filled, not showing 

 the ragged appearance of many 

 of the exhibition sorts. 

 Its superb fragrance, size 

 and excellence in form 

 has been noted with the 

 highest approval wher- 

 ever exhibited. Per pack- 

 age, $1.00. 



MIGNONETTE. 



MORNING GLORY. 



Imperial Japanese. 



The charm of these " Imperial Japanese Morning Glories " 

 lies in the beauty and gigantic size of the flowers, which meas- 

 ure from 4 to 6 inches across, and their greater substance 

 causes them to remain open longer than ordinary morning 

 glories. The colors of the flowers, shadings and markings are 

 limitless ; some are of a deep, rich velvety tone, others daintily 

 tinted and shaded. The solid colors range through red, from 

 soft rose to blackish purple, from snow white to cream and 

 silver grey ; some are striped, starred and spotted ; others 

 have magnificent edges and throats. The vines are of strong 

 and robust growth, attaining a height of 30 to 50 feet. If 

 you have been inclined to look upon Morning Glories as too 

 common, give this new class a trial, and we are sure you will 

 be repaid for your trouble, and secure a climber of more than 

 ordinary attraction. Per pkg. , 10c. ; 3 pkgs. , 25c.
