LOYETT'S BOUQUET GARDEN, 



This is a mixture of over one hundred varieties of 

 free-flowering annuals of easy culture, which will pro- 

 duce a constant bloom the entire season. They include 

 well-known favorites, and many other sorts, which when 

 growing together, produce a very interesting and in- 

 structive effect. Such a scene is constantly changing 

 its aspect as the season advances, new blossoms appear- 

 ing while others are passing their period of bloom. 

 After flowering fairly begins, it is possible to gather a 

 bouquet at any time until the plants are killed by frost.

I am very much pleased to say that I do not think
