Marigold Orange Princb. 



DOUBLE 



STOCK-FLOWERED 



EARKPVIRS. 



These are undoubtedly the finest of all the 

 annual Larkspurs. They are of tall, branchings 

 habit, with fine long spikes of double flowers, 

 which come into bloom early in the season and 

 last until late fall. Whether used in beds, bor- 

 ders, or grown for cutting only, they must be 

 considered one of the most satisfactory annuals.

NICOTIANA SANDERJE. 



(Carmine Tuberose-flowered Tobacco.) 



3412 This beautiful hybrid Nicotiana was raised in England 

 and was exhibited the past season at the Temjile show 

 and elsewhere, and in every case lias been spoken of 

 , as the most strikingly beautiful plants of the 

 year. The originators describe it as forming bushy, 

 much-branched plants 2 feet high, the whole plant laden 

 with flowers from, base to summit — lilerally ablaze with 

 handsome carmine-red fragrant blossoms, thousands of 

 which are produced on a single plant. In form the flower 

 resembles AHcoliana Affinis, but having a short, stout 

 tube, and, unlike thnt variety, does not close up in the day- 

 time, but remains open all day; the fragrance, while not so 

 powerful as in Nicotiana Affinis, is decidedly delicious. 



It is as easy to grow as a Petunia. If started indoors in 

 early spring and planted out in May it gives a continuous 

 di-play of blooms all summer and autumn. It can also be 

 sown in the open ground when the weather becomes 

 warm. Our own representative saw llie ]5lnnts in bloom 

 last summer, and had nothin<T but words of |iraise for this 

 valuable novelty, wliich is uiidouliiedlv destined for ur.i- 

 versal use. 25 cts. per pkt.; 5 pkts.,$l 00. _
