 ers. Height 3 feet. 15 cts. each ; SI 50 per dozen.

last year; astrong, vigorous grower, attaining a height of 5 feet,

 are of large size, open out well, and are produced very freely.

 dashes of bright scarlet running through almost to the edge 

 of the petals, producing a unique and bizarre effect. Height 

 5 feet. 15 cts. each; §1.50 per dozen. 



Sam Trelease. The greatest merit of this variety is that 

 the flowers open out flat, which, with its very broad petals, 

 which are of good substance, makes a large nearly perfect 

 circular flower, different Irom all other sorts. I- color it is 

 the nearest approach to a pure scarlet yet introduced. Very 

 rich and glowing; the edges and centre are marked with 

 yellow, about the same as in Mme. Crozy, It grows about 3 

 feet high, with large, freely-branching spikes of flowers, 

 \vhich are thrown above the foliage and of just sufficient 

 height^ to show them to best advantage. In freedom of 

 flowering we know of no variety that compares with it. (See 

 cut.) 15 cts each; §1.50 per dozen; §10.00 per 100.
