COLE'S GARDEN ANNUAL 



ORNAMENTAL 



An excedingiy interesting novelty, and very ornamental. 

 The fruit is almost round, with distinct markings. Grows on 

 a pretty vine; fruit orange yellow, slightly striped and some- 

 times spotted red; varying from the size of a small peach to 

 that of an orange. Very fragrant, sweetly perfuming a room 

 with their exquisite odor for days. Very prolific and ea- 

 sily grown. Plant and cultivate same as for the musk melon. 



Per pkt. 10 cts. ; 3 pkts. 25 cts. 



DBI^ICATA. SQUASH. 



This splendid new variety is of an orange yellow color, and some are striped with a very dark 

 green. The quality is rich and dry. The Delicata is one of the earliest of aiiy vine squash, and is 

 very prolific. Of small to medium size, it is wonderfully solid and heavy, the seed cavity being very 

 small. For private use particularly we can recommend this squash, as it far surpasses in richness 

 of flavor any other sort. Being early, it matures about the same time as the Summer Squashes, and 

 for early use will doubtless supplant this class. Being very solid and as good a keeper as any of the 

 winter varieties, the Delicata is an all season" squash in a remarkable degree. 



Per pkt. 7 cts., oz. 20 cts., 14 lb. 60 cts.

 bright pink, light blue, white and other colors mixed.

 elegant clusters of flowers continuously throughout the

 to bloom in June, and continue to flower tliroughout 

 the wliole year. It is one of the most useful Primulas 

 for pot culture, and also succeeds well in the open bor-
