ERYSIMUM (Fairy Wallflower). 

 2411 Perofskianum. We sent out for trial the past two sea- 

 sons a number of packets of this annual, and have received 

 so many favorable reports that we have concluded co add it 

 to our list. The plants grow about 18 inches high, bearing 

 throughout the summer dense racemes of brilliant orange- 

 yellow Wallflower-like flowers, a rather unusual color in 

 annuals. It is of the simplest culture. Sow the seed in 

 the open ground in spring and give it a sunny position.
