SALVIA OR SCARLET SAGE 
Hardy Annual 
Our collection ineludes all the best varieties worthy of culture. With 
the old-fashioned scarlet sorts we now list three new and distinct colors, 
the purple, the salmon and the carmine; new shades never before seen 
in this famous and’popular plant. Four varieties which every custo- 
mer should try were illustrated in colors on the back of our 1914 Seed 
Book. These salvias will delight every one by the profusion and dis- | 
tinctness of their flowers during the whole summer until frost. | 
The seed is saved from plants at our Panmure Seed Garden, so we | 
can positively recommend the strains as the best that can be had.
