HLOX DRUMMONDILT GRANDI- 
CRUEL PLANT. Physianthus Al- 
bens. A beautiful and rapid growing climber. 
| It bears an immense number of pure white 
bell-shaped tragrant flowers,and derives its 
name from the fact that various insects, 
sucking honey from its sweet blooms 
are caught and securely held until 
death overtakes them. They thrive 
best in a compost of sandy loam and 
fibry peat and are more sure of 
germination if started in hot-bed 
or a shallow box in the house. 
Half hardy Perennial. 20 feet. 
Packet, 15c; 2 Packets, 25c. 
LORA. Eclipse. The two great points 
on which I can recommend this handsome 
sort, are the large size of the individual 
flowers and the enormous size of its beau- 
tiful heads. When the flowers first 
they are of a bright rosy purple, deep- 
ening to rich imperial par or vio- 
let.. It is a very free bloomer 
which, with the size of the flowers 
and richness of coloring, make it 
a most striking and handsome 
variety of the ever popular 
Phlox Drummondii Grandi- 
flora. Packet, 10 cents.

RICINUS CAMBOGIENSIS. 
RICINUS CAMBODGIENS . The Cam- 
bodian Palma Christi. The most hand- 
some Ricinus ever introduced, which for 
tropical effects in masses on the lawn, or 
singly in the garden is highly effec- 
tive. A vigorous grower, d to 6 ft 
high, with large palm-like 
leaves of a bronzy red ma- 
roon color, while the 
stalks are of a rich, 
shining ebony 
black. Packet

CAMPANULA. Cup and Saucer.—A new, entirely distinct and ex- 
ceedingly beautiful variety of Canterbury Bells, and is quite an acquisition 
to this class of hardy perennials, which are at present receiving a great 
deal of attention, both at home and abroad. The bell or trumpet of the 
flower is quite three inches in diameter, presenting the form of a cupand 
saucer, as shown in illustration above. Colors are blue, rose, lilac and 
white, and also includes the new striped sorts which are entirely new and 
distinct and as yet very scarce and expensive. The plants are of strong 
growth and their beautiful blooms almost completely hide the foliage from 
view. Packet, 15 cents; 2 packets, 25 cents, 
SHIRLEY POPPY.—These charming Poppies represent an entirely 
new strain of the Ranunculus-flowered tamily. They range in color from 
pure white, through many shades of pale pink, rose and carmine, ending in 
the deepest crimson, many delicately edged, blotched, and striped, which add 
greatly to their loveliness. The form of the flower is most beautiful, generally 
Single or semi-double, and will be found very valuable for table decoretions, 
where its charming colors, shades and markings, cannot fail to attract the 
attention of all who behold them. The seed I offer has been most carefully 
saved from a grand collection, embracing only the best colors and forms. 
Perfectly hardy and flowers the first season from seed. Packet, 10 cents.
