Tom • Thumb • Liliput. « 



an Entirely New eiass of - . *, 



Dwarf Nasturtiums. > 



I consider this one of the great floral novel- a 

 ties of the year, and deserves the attention of d 

 aU lovers of flowers. The plant is in every re- » 

 speci- smaller than the ordinary Tom Thumb 1 

 section, and the dainty little flowers produced 9 

 in the greatest profusion and jauntily peering <» 

 up well above the small cut and bushy foliage, S. 







in 



^, ril^P*^ °^ '^® prettiest annuals imaginlo 

 able. The blossoms appear in the most various "S 

 and shovvy colors, and it is especially note- S 

 worthy that some quite new shades appear ■« 

 among them, such as are not represented in the 2 

 old Class. This feature, together with the fact 1 

 that the seed is much smaller than in the oe 

 iom thumb Nasturtiums, and similar to <8 

 that of the Lobbianum section, are the * 

 best evidences that we have here to do S 

 with an entirely new break in the Nastur- 

 tium family. 1 have not yet been able to 3 

 fix separate colors of it, but the mixture 9 

 will be found highly effective and renders » 

 this new Nasturtium excellent for groups * 

 and borders. It is also equally desirable " 

 ^•v^.„^^^ for window boxes in the house in winter V

PHL0X BRUMAIONOII 



Quedlinburgh. g 



This floral novelty is of an extraordinary charac- B 



r""- The growth of plants is similar in every respect as 



to the Fimbnata, difl'ering, however, in the distinct $8 



shape of Its flowers. The pointed centre teeth of the ft 



petals— five m number— are three or four times as >ai 



large as the lateral ones, and project beyond them ? 



like little spines, making them appear to have a star Z 



like form, the efl^ect of which is remarkable. The m 



llowers are of various shades, embracing all the m 



colors to be found in the old varieties of Phlox, and - 



are excellent either for garden or pot culture. a
