It is our practice each season to test on our " Floracroft " Trial Grounds all Floral Novelties, and in 

 this way we Vieconie, by personal positive knowledge, acquainted with all the best that is offered both 

 in this country and abroad. Of many of the finer sorts we grow our full stock of seed on our own ground, 

 thus being enabled to know that the type is kept pure and true. 



Jtgeratum "5^lue S^erfection" 



This sterling novelty is the darkest colored of all the large flowering 

 Ageratums. Dwarf, compact growth, making it a valuable plant for beds or 

 borders. Its color is a deep amethyst blue, and lias nothing of the faded-out 

 appearance of the old-style Ageratum. Price, per pkt., 10c.; oz., $1.00. 



S^alsam — Smproved Camelia S'ure White

 color, size of bloom, doubleness and symmetry of plant. Price per packet, 10c.
