1722 DROOPING SPIKES. Thevery best Scarlet Sage obtainable. 
The flowers of this magnificent scarlet sage are produced so abundant- 
ly as to bend the branches and give them a leaning habit, hence the 
name of Drooping Spikes. It is a magnificent bloomer, far more flori- 
ferous andshowy than the old form. The plant blazes in dazzling scar- 
let all through the summer and fall, and cannot be excelled for decor- 
ative purposes. My seed is grown on my own grounds, and I can highly 
recommend the strain. Packet, 10 cents; 4 ounce, 40 cents. 
One of the finest for bedding.
