Vell a8 faimes ~ ~ fs - This remarkable and distinct new Japanese pink is known as Dianthus laciniatus mira- 
Tish eh Se bilis. It Shows peculiarity while still in the seed bed in its very narrow foliage. The plants grow 
Mt any si ae from 12 to 15 inches high, and produce large, 
aN lovely flowers 8 to 4 inches in diameter, on stiff, 
Ti upright stems. The petals of the flowers are very 
The steady a RINT deeply cut. From a third to a half of the floral 
substance seems to be torn into graceful threads. 
The fringes are turned and twisted in all direc- 
tions, giving the flower an appearance both 
pretty and unique. There is a wide color range, 
including pure white, white with pink or red 
zone, rose, deep purple, etc. Striped flowers also

material for bouquets, and cannot be excelled for \G Th 
¥ pedding or border purposes. It is a novel and w ant 
interesting type, whether considered in respect to 
its foliage, the buds or the fully expanded blooms. \/

Handsome, Tall New Balsam, A ENT NE 
GOLIATH.  gacZrs 
This is a new balsam or lady’s slipper of re- @ 
markably robust growth, throwing up a main 
stem, often 4 feet high. The lower portion of the # 
stem is well covered with side branches, giving (7% 
the plant asturdy bush form. All branches are clothed with very large double flowers of asalmon L - 
pink color, producing an effect as rich as it is charming. Goliath carries the largest and most 
perfect fiowers yet developed in this old-fashioned favorite bedding plant, and it should find a 
place this year in all annual gardens. All the balsams rejoice in good soil, and all are improved 
by being once or twice transplanted from the original seed bed. This new variety should have 
NN, 
_\\ | ample space for development, as it occupies much room with lateral branches. Packet, 10 cents.

This is a decided novelty in nas- 
turtiums, and one that is sure to 
attract wide attention. It is a bush 
or dwarf form of the ivy-leaved 
climbing type. It is a very early 
bloomer and remarkably floriferous, 
a single plant having produced as 
many as two thousand flowers, by 
actual count. The color is a golden- 
orange; hence the name of ‘Golden 
> Butterfly.” The flowers are larger 
in size than most ivy-leaved nagtur- 
/ tiums, and are beautifully fringed 
at the edges and in the throat. This 
new sort will prove to be a great 
acquisition as a low bedder, not 
only for its abundant flowers, but 
for its attractive foliage. 
Packet, 10 cents; 8 packets, 25 cents.

flowered single petunias. The four colors implied in thename , 
are bright rose, lustrous carmine,. deep blood red and a decided 
yellow. The outer portion is rose, the veins are carmine and / 
the throat is blood red. Radiating from the throat in a large 
proportion of the blooms are five handsome yellow blotches, 
making a more or less regular star, and producing a decidedly 
novel and interesting effect. This is one of the most original 
and striking floral novelties on the market, and will be hailed 
with delight by all lovers of petunias. The color combination 
is very pleasing, andthe veining of the petal is exquisite and 
; Z indicative of high breeding. It is different from any of the
