 size, the flowers nearly 5 inches deep, with 

 petals 2 inches wide and of that beautiful 

 pink color peculiar to the Cattleya orchid.

IRIS PALLIDA FOLIA VARIEGATA. 



This new Iris is conspicuous on account of its beautifully- variegated foli- 

 age, which is of a glaucous green, with broad bands of creamy-yellow, every 

 leaf being well marked. It is of free growth, and when well established 

 attains a height of 2 to 2i feet, and is very attractive. Its flowers are of 

 a soft, pale lavender. 50 cts. each; $5.00 per doz.

 creamy-yellow, is silvery-white; very pretty. 75 cts. each. 



IICIS I^i^PEICR.EGjK A (introduction* of Goo* & Koenemann). 

 An interesting new type, the result of crossing /. germanica with / pumila hybridn, and for which there promises to be a 

 great future. They bloom earlier than the German Iris, and the flowers combine perfection of form with large size and clear and 



decided colors. The foliage is dwarf, and maintains its freshness through- 

 out the season. The flower stems are almost 18 inches high, ho'ding the 

 flowers well above the foliage.

 distinct and beautifully formed flower.

IRIS PIT^IILA IIVBRIDA. 



(Introductions of Goos & Koenemann.) 



Schneekuppe. A pure white variety of the same form, and approaching 



in size Iris germanica.

creamy yellow, falls deeper in color, with greenish veins. 

 60 cts. each. One of each for $1.00. 



LUPINUS POLYPHYLLIJS MOERHEIHII 



The European introducer of this plant, to whom we are indebted for 

 many of our good hardy plants, in speaking of this new Lupine, says that 

 it is one of the finest novelties in hardy plants he ever introduced, and we 

 feel justified in adding that among the new perennials which we have tried 

 none gave us more pleasure. The habit of the plant is robust, forming 

 symmetrical specimens 3 feet high, with spikes of flowers over a foot long, 

 in color superb, being a combination of light and dark shades of pink 

 LupiNus PoLYPHYLLus. witliout a trace of magenta. 35 cts. each; $4.00 per doz.
