HE steadily increasing demand for 
Fiowering and Tropical Plants, 
Orchids, curious Cacti, Small and Orna- 
j, mental Fruits, etc., has induced me to 
\ give more space and attention to this de- 
artment of my business this season than 
ever before. You will therefore find the next 20 pages entirely 
devoted to many new and exceedingly rare plants, quite a number 
of which are offered this season for the first time. It has been my 
aim to select only those plants that will give the purchaser the 
utmost satisfaction, and I know that every one favoring me with an order 
for plants this year will be more than satisfied with their investment. 
It will be noticed also that my prices are very reasonable, considering the quality 
aud size of stock. To my old customers it is unnecessary to say anything in regard to 
the superior excellence of Maule’s Plants, but tothe many new readers who will 4 
receive my catalogue this year for the first time, I need only say that Maule’s 3} 
Plants are just as reliable as Maule’s Seeds. More cannot be said, 
for better seeds than Maule’s were never sold, and stronger, healthier 5; 
plants than I propose to send my customers the coming season a: 
‘tt : p cannot be procured from amy ome; at least such has been the verdict ot 
\ REVS all who have tried them, and 
Kw I propose this year to increase the 
good reputation which they now hold in the 
esteem of all lovers of flowering plant life.

IPOM@A PANDURATA, The Hardy Moon 
Flower.—This beautiful hardy Ipomcea has proven per- 
BUA fectly hardy as far north as Boston, Mass., and for giving a 
quick dense shade no other hardy twiner can equalit. Large tubers 
will make a growth of 25 feet in a single season, and retain their 
\ \ large foliage down to the ground until frost. Although we have 
A called this variety a Moon Flower, it is also by all means a day flower 
as well, as flowers are open day and night alike. While other vines, such as Wistarias, 
Bignonia, etc., will not flower until after several years’ planting ; this from strong tubers will 
bloom the first year, and such blooms! Imagine from 1,000 to 1,200 flowers, measuring 344 
to 6 inches across, open on one vine at once; the color being white, shading to pink and 
purple in the throat, the blooming period extending several months. Prices for sound good
