and truly remarkable range of markings, 
unexcelled by any other strain. The shades 
and colors are various—white, pink, lilac, 
rose, bronze, garnet, crimson, ete. There

shapes and markings. The illustration shows a charac- 
teristic flower of this noble strain. Itis a development 
or evolution from the highest form of Japanese Morn- 
ing Glory, and represents the acme of beauty thus far 
secured in this graceful and favorite flower. The colors 
are exceedingly rich, and the texture of the blossom is 
thick and heavy, indicative of high breeding. At Briar 
Crest this wonderful ‘morning glory freely produced 
flowers 4 to 5 inches in diameter. The Japanese do not 
willingly part with their best morning glories, and this 
one has but lately reached America.
