THE GRANDEST NOVELTY OF THE SEAS 



This masmiflcent novelty I take pleasure in introducing to the public for the first time. It is something entirely new, never be 

 fore having been offered. " It was brought from the old woi-ld this season by my European ti-aveler. It is bound to create a furor on 

 account of its novelty and rare beauty, as well as for its many other good qualities. The number of hardy annual climbers is not 

 very larse, heuce this first Double Morning Glory ever introduced will be greeted as a welcome addition to this class of plants. It 

 is of rapid growth, producing its large double flowers very freely. They are of beautiful form and delicate coloring, being white with 

 a slight shading of red or blue at the base of the larger petals. It is probable that all the different colors of the single IMorning Glory 

 will be produced by hybridizing before long. 



r*! ti TitDcr Seeds should be sown as early as ground can be worked in the spring, or may be sown in the house and trans- 

 CULlUKb. planted outside as soon as weather permits, so that a long season of beautiful flowers may. repay you. Truly a 

 lovely addition to the floral kingdom, as one can never forget the beautiful appearance of one of these lovely plants in full bloom, 

 with'its light graceful foliage and hundreds of delicate flowers playing peek-a-boo among the leaves. Pkt 15c.
