Solanum Wendlandi 

 Hagnificum. 



A rare and beautiful species of climb- 

 ing habit, beginning to flower early in 

 July and continuing in full bloom until 

 cut down by severe frost. This was one of 

 the most highly admired plants in our trial 

 grounds the past summer, attracting at- 

 tention at once on account of the large 

 size of its flowers, which are over two 

 inches in diameter, and are produced in 

 large clusters, frequently over one hun- 

 dred flowers being on one truss. Color, 

 a mauve blue of a distinct and pleasing 

 shade. 30 cts. each, 4 for $1.00. 



Solanum Seaforthia= 

 num Azureum. 



(The Blue Solanum.) 



A pretty climbing species of the same 

 habit of growth as Jasminoides grandi- 

 florum, but with large clusters of blue 

 flowers which are succeeded by scarlet 

 berries which remain perfect for a long 

 time. 15 cts. each, 4 for 50 cts. 



Solanum Jasminoides 

 Qrandiflorum. 



A beautiful plant, which inclines to a 

 trailing or climbing habit, but never at- 

 tains a greater height than 3 to 5 feet, 

 and can be pinched back to a bush form. 

 Its flowers are star-shaped, like a Cle- 

 matis, and borne in enormous panicles or 

 clusters, often a foot across. In color 

 they are pure white, with a violet tinge 

 on back of petals and on the buds. In 

 pots it is a fine bloomer both summer and 

 winter. 15 cts. each, 4 for 50 cts. 



Solanum Wendlandi Magnificum. 



Strobilanthes Dyerianus. 



A desirable new foliage plant with leaves 4 to 5 inches long 

 and 2 inches wide, which are of an intense metallic purple color 

 shading into light rose with a light green margin, a combination 

 unapproached by any other plant. It is an excellent plant either 

 for bedding out or for pot culture ; flowers of a violet blue. 

 15 cts. each, $1.50 per doz. 



Schubertia Grandiflora. 



An exceedingly pretty climber, which succeeds admirably in 

 the open ground during the summer months, producing the entire 

 summer, until cut down by severe frost, clusters of large funnel- 

 shaped, fleshy-white flowers of delightful fragrance, not unlike 

 Stephanotis Floribunda in appearance. 75 cts. each. 



Smilax.
