CENOTHERA. 



CEnothera "Ice King."— This 

 new everbloominj? Primrose is of remark- 

 able hardihood, a wonderful flower In 

 many ways. Its home being Montana, 

 that land of intense cold in winter and 

 long drought in summer, it will endure 

 perfectly a temperature of 40° below zero 

 arid continues to grow and bloom freely 

 during the heat of summer in the most un- 

 favorable locations; places where almost 

 every other herbaceous plant would not 

 only cease to bloom but perish. The plant 

 has ornamental cut foliage and forms dense 

 tufts which throw up its marvelous flowers 

 every day, from early spring until late 

 outumn, in the greatest profusion; 15 to 20 

 of Its huge blossoms frequently being found 

 upon the plant at one time. The flowers 

 are from 4 to 5 ir^ches in diameter, pearly 

 white, delicately shaded rose and delight- 

 fully fraitrauL. Tuej ait: uoiuenigu up auuv« tue piauL, inus showing to best advantage. Altogether 

 this is one of the most beautiful, novel, interesting and valuable plants we have ever come across and 

 should, by all means, be in every collection.

Pyretlirum liybridum, (FeverI'ew).— In 

 this very desirable class of plants, which are of the 

 j easiest culture and bloom freely from May until Oc- 

 j tober, wonderful Improvements have been made of 

 late. There are many varieties, all handsome, but 

 j we have selected Rosy Morn which is deep red and 

 ! very double and snow- ball which is equally double 

 I and pure white as the two most distinct and deslra- 

 I able sorts. They are simply grand, splendid for 

 ! cutting, and should be in all collections'. 25c.
