aem_ <> NEW VIOLETS. ome. 
THE CALIFORNIA. This grand New Violet is probably being grown more large- 
ly at the present time than any other variety. The plant is of vigorous habit and abse- 
lutely free from disease. The flowers are single and of immense size, covering a silver halr- 
dollar. The color is a rich violet purple and does not fade; while the fragrance is simply 
unequalled. The plant is of the most robust habit, producing its flowers profusely on long 
strong stems about 10 inches long, as many as 250 perfect flowers having been picked from 
a single plant. Lovers of Violets should have the California. 20 cents each; 3 for 50 cents. 
LADY HUME CAMPBELL. An improvement on that old favorite, Marie Louise. The 
leaves are large, clean and bright, and the fine stemmed flowers are soft, pure, azure blue, 
—the favorite color in violets. They are delicately pretty in form, perfectly double, and 
deliciously fragrant. The most fastidious lover of violets will be charmed with these 
superbly dainty blossoms, and may pick them in quantities from the open garden in the 
fall, and all winter from potted plants or from cold frames. 15 cents each; 2 for 25 cents. 
SWANLEY WHITE. A most beautiful Violet, being pure white, double and deliciously 
fragrant. It is a free bloomer, its large double white fowers above its glossy green foliage, 
producing a wonderful effect. 15 cents each; 2 for 25 cents. 
SS FOR 30 CENT. I will send, postpaid, one strong plant of each of the 
three New Violets named above, or 4 of each for $1.00. 
NEW CHRYSANTHEMUMS.

and color; a strong grower anda profuse bloomer. Single blooms sold at $1.00 each at 
the Chrysanthemum Show in Philadelphia the past fall and was awarded more premi- w 
ums than any other variety exhibited. An entirely new type in coloring and form of 
petals and florets. The formation of its florets and their disposition makes it gracefully 
globular in form; its color is white, illuminated with lemon yellow, giving it light and life 
. never before seen in a Chrysanthemum. It was awarded the highest honor by the American 
\ \ Chrysanthemum Society, and was also the centre of attraction at the fall Chrysanthemum Shows 
\\\Y in the following cities, at all of which it was shown at the same time: Boston, Baltimore,
