 wide range of color and habit of growth.

PANSIES. 



Lovett's Mammoth. For immense flowers, rich, var- 

 ied and pure colors we do not think any can be found 

 to excel our strain of this very popular flower. Unlike 

 most strains ours runs to light colors, a goodly portion 

 being yellow or largely of that color. In addition to 

 bedding, a beautiful effect is produced by filling a vase 

 with plants of this unrivalled strain, Ea., 5c; doz., 

 50c; 100, $3.50. 



PARROT'S FEATHER. 



^Myriophyllum prosperinacoides. 



An interesting aquatic 

 plant, having long, 

 trailing stems clothed 

 with whorls of fine 

 feathery foliage, as deli- 

 cate and pretty as the 

 Cypress Vine. It is of 

 the easiest culture, the 

 creeping stems floating 

 about with erect, tassel- 

 like ends or trailing 

 over the edge of the ves- 

 sel if confined in a small 

 space. It forms a beau- 

 tiful hanging plant, pre- 

 senting a novel and 

 beautiful effect when 

 grown as shown in the 

 illustration. It does not 

 flower, however. Al- 

 most hardy, but should

be taken indoor s in wint 



TUBEROSE. 



Excelsior Pearl. The best double Tuberose ever 

 grown. Dwarf and compact habit, a r apid grower and 

 early bloomer. The flowers are waxy-white, very 

 double, delightfully fragrant and produced in great 

 numbers. 1 he purity of its eclor and sweet fragrance 

 should make it a general favorite in every garden. It 

 is of the easiest culture and thrives in all good soil. 

 Very large selected bulbs, ea., 5c; doz., 50c. (By ex- 

 press or freight, 100, $2.00; 1000, $15.00.)

 RUBBER 



PLANT. 



Reus efastica. Up- 

 right habit with long, 

 glossy, smooth, leath- 

 ery foliage. A very 

 interesting plant and 

 one that succeeds un- 

 der the most utter 

 neglect and unfavora- 

 ble conditions. Valu- 

 able alike for parlor*, 

 hall or prazza. Suc- 

 ceeds in strongest sun- 

 shine upon the lawn 

 or in a dark corner of 

 a dwelling, without 

 light. Stately and

 15 inches high, ea., 

 50c; 15 to 20 in. high, 

 ea., 75c. 



SALVIAS. 



IManda's Golden-leaved (New). Something very novel 

 in the way of Salvias. In addition to the masses of 

 bright scarlet-flowered spikes which it bears, its beauty 

 and showy effectiveness is still further increased by rts 

 folrage being a brilliant golden yellow, presenting a 

 marvelous contrast of color. The plant is dwarf and 

 compact in habit, very free-floweriug and the color of 

 its foliage constant and distinct. A grand acquisition. 

 Ea., 25c; 3 for 00c; doz., $2.00.

 dens or common Scarlet Sage, being of dwarf, compact 

 habit, comes in bloom early and is covered with bril- 

 liant scarlet flowers during the whole summer and au- 

 tumn. Of the greatest value for bedding. Ea., 12c; 

 doz., $1.00; 1C0, $8.00.

 popular old variety. Dazzling scarlet flowers in late 

 summer and autumn; tall, with abundant green foliage.

VERBENAS. 



Mrs. Howard Hert. Now offered for the first. It 

 originated at Troy, N. Y., with a very skillful old 

 gardener, and may be properly termed a Giant Verbena. 

 In every way it is mammoth — the flower heads equal 

 in size to large trusses of Geraniums and the indivicual 

 florets are as large as a silver half dollar; while its 

 clean, brrght green foliage is fully twice the size of an 

 ordinary Verbena. The color is a clear br ight cheerful 

 pink throughout and the flowers are very lasting. It 

 is an exceedingly strorrg grower and a most pr ofuse 

 and constant blocmer. It is altogether superior by far 

 to any other variety in cultivation. Ea., 25c; 3 for 

 60c; doz., $2.00.

 and heads of bloom; colors remarkably clear, bright

Beautiful flowering bulbs producing a continuous and
