A Word to Lovers of Old-Fashioned Flowers. 



From a carefully prepared floral list, published iu Philadelphia lOI 

 years ago, "printed by B. Graves, No. 40, North Fourtli Street,' 1 have 

 made selectlonsof a number of the annuals and perennials that were 

 then in favor and fashion In this viclulty. These charming flowers at 

 that date were grown for the most part on the Atlantic Slope. Now 

 they are planted from ocean to ocean, and are held in high esteem 

 everywhere. The term "old-fashioned," as applied to flowers, means 



something pleasantly associated with by-gone days and former homes, 

 and I cannot too strongly recommend the planting of either one or both 

 of the following collections. The quotation marks show the old spell- 

 ing. Buyers will receive pacltets as now labelled. "Heart's-ease," for 

 Instance, means a packet of pansies. All of the old floral forms have 

 been improved during a century, but the type In each case remains un- 

 changed, and beds sown with them will prove beautiful and Interesting.

"Old Glory" Collection of Sweet Peas. 



Comparatively few flowers have a full "red, white and blue " range of 

 color, and fewer still have shades harmonizing with the hues of the 

 National emblem. It is hard to match the tints of "Old Glory." The 

 red and white can be found, but the blue brings a problem. Even the 

 sweet pea, one of the most responsive of flowers, yields but slowly to 

 the search for the true color of the sky. Still, I think it is now possible 

 to ofl^er the thiee colors of the flag in this manner, and I therefore have 



selected three sweet peas for this purpose. For the red (curiously 

 enough) I take King Edward VII, which is the best red sweet pea to 

 date. For the white I take Dorothy Eckl'ord, the grandest pure white. 

 As to the blue, nothing answers the purpose better than Flora Norton, 

 also called "Memento." The colors may be kept seperate or mixed, aa 

 the purchaser shall determine. The "Old Glory"Collectlon, 1 ounce 

 of each, 'i ounces in all, will be sent postpaid for only 20 cents.
