GAILLARDIA GRANDIFLORA 

 COPPER-RED. 



2505 Gaillardia grandiflora is justly considered one of the best and show- 

 iest hardy perennials, and we feel sure this striking new color will add 

 to the popularity of the genus, it being a brilliant coppery-red 

 throughout, toning somewhat lighter at the tips of the petals; flowers 

 of largest size, and having all the good qualities of the type. 20 cts. 

 per pkt.; 3 pkts. for 50 cts. 



Double-flowering: BABY'S BREATH. 



(Gypsophila paniculata fl. pi.) 



2695 One of the most important hardy perennials of recent introduction. 

 The plant grows from 3 to 2>\ feet high, bearing its pretty little 

 double white flowers in much-branched panicles, which, when cut, 

 can be used to great advantage with other flowers or by themselves, 

 as they retain their beauty for months. It is also a most desirable 

 addition to the hardy border. 20 cts. per pkt.; 3 pkts., 50 cts. 



HELIOPSIS SCABRA ZINNI^FLORA. 



2732 A new double-flowering form of the hardy perennial Orange Sun- 

 flower, growing 2 feet high and bearing golden-yellow Zinnia like 

 flowers during the summer months. In addition to being a very 

 showy plant in the hardy border, it is one of the best perennials for 

 cutting. 15 cts. per pkt.; 2 pkts., 25 cts. 



New Giant-Flowering Marshmallows. 



(Hibiscus.) 



2775 A wonderfully improved form of our greatly admired native Marsh- 

 mallow, or Rosemallow, in which flowers of enormous size, frequently 

 10 to 12 inches in diameter, have been developed. The colorings 

 have also been greatly intensified, comprising rich dark red, soft 

 mallow-pink and pure white; the plants grow from 5 to 8 feet high 

 and are very floriferous, blooming from early in July until late in 

 autumn; can be recommended for plantings of all kinds, and are per- 

 fectly hardy. The seed we offer has been saved from our own plants, 

 and if sown early will produce plants that will flower the first year.
