 Kusselia Leilioinei 3Illltiflora. The primary stems are 



strong and vigorous ; flower panicles being extremely long and 



are covered with tassels of flowers one above the other ; color a 



magnificent coral red. 



Russelia LeiuoiueiElegraiitissima. The primary stems 

 are finer than in Multiflora, and closely covered with foliage, 

 very graceful in their arching form ; the bloom is so freely pro- 

 duced as to completely cover the plant ; flowers bright soft red.

 allied to the Gladiolus, and that 

 will succeed under similar culti- 

 vation, or which may be grown as 

 a pot plant and flowered in the 

 conservatory or greenhouse ; the 

 foliage is similar to that of the 

 Gladiolus, from which rise stems 

 4 feet or more in height, which 

 are branched, 5 or 6 branches fre- 

 quently being on one stem, and 

 bearing many long-tubed, open 

 flowers, 2 inches across, which are

YITCCA 

 FII.A3IEXTOSA 



BICOI.OR. 



Everyone is familiar with the common Yucca Filamentosa, or 

 Adam's Needle, a plant with evergreen foliage and tall spikes 

 of creamy white drooping bell-shaped flowers, which are pro- 

 duced in the greatest profusion about midsummer. In the va- 

 riety here offered is added the charm of beaiitilul variegated 

 foliage, the leaves being longitudinally striped with yellow. A 

 pretty and interesting plant that will succeed in any position.

TRITOMA PFITZERII.

A grand improvement of the old Tritonia Uvaria Grandiflora, 

 or Red-Hot PoKer. The flower spikes, which are produced 

 with considerable more freedom than in the old variety, are 

 of gi'janlic size, frequently \\ feet high, with heads of bloom 

 over 12 inches long, of a rich orange-scarlet, shading to sal- 

 mon-rose on the edge; a really first-class acquisition. 25 cts.

1J% EIGELIA EVA RATHKE. 



It is rarely that we notice decided novelties in this popular 

 shrub, but in this variety we ceitainly have a grand acquisition, 

 a variety that is at once a remarkably free bloomer and entirely 

 distinct ciilor, being a rich reddish-purple, quite different from 

 anything heretofore offered. ' (See cut on page 172.) 50 cts. 

 each.

The finest Rose of this color ever introduced. See description

ciously-scented variety, producing 

 flowers throughout the winter and 

 summer season, of a deep golden 

 yellow, with a rich crimson- 

 feathered bloth in each segment, 

 outer edges notched or scalloped, 

 the whole forming into an ex- 

 quisitely-shaped blossom. A free, 

 vigorous grower. When in the 

 height of its perfection, strings of 

 growth 8 to 10 feet long, resplen- 

 dent with its parti-colored flowers,

 grand trailer for the greenhouse 

 in early spring, or out doors dur- 

 ing the summer. (See ci:t on
