SWAINSONIA GALEGIFOLIA ALBA. 



This is certainly a most charming ever-blooming plant of wonderful 

 freedom of growth, and blooming the whole year through. Every shoot, 

 as soon as it attains the height of 6 inches, begins to send forth large 

 spikes of ivory-white flowers, which resemble a "Roman Hyacinth." 

 The individual flower is fashioned after the "Sweet Tea." Its lasting 

 qualities as a cut flower are remarkable; will last several days when 

 cut and placed in water. The cut flowers of this charming plant are 

 in great demand, and during the past season sold readily for $1.00 to 

 $2.00 per dozen spikes. Strong plants 15c. each. 



Swainsonia Carminea — Grows with same freedom as Alba; the color is 

 a beautiful carmine red. 15c. each.

HONEYSUCKLE. 



15c each; the 2 for only 25c. 

 The dear old Honeysuckle is never ovt of place at the rich man's 

 mansion or the poor man's cottage. Fcr a cheap, hardy, robust yet 

 lovely vine, it is the chief stand-by. Flowers exceedingly beautiful 

 and very fragrant. 



Colden Leaved— Marvelously effective. It bears innumerable sprays of 

 the most perfect little leaves that are covered with a net-work of 

 gold and green, often marked with pink also. The gold deepens at 

 the tip of the sprays and there is nothing finer to combine with 

 corsage bouquets, while for trimming floral baskets they are the 

 finest" thiug we know of. A strong grower with white blossoms. 

 A unique vine. 



Halleana — The best monthly Honeysuckle, with dark green foliage, 

 which keeps fresh and green nearly all the winter, and beautiful 

 clusters of the sweetest-scented flowers that open a snowy white 

 and turn a pale yellow. These flowers are produced in profusion 

 from early spring until late fall. A fine vine for a large trellis, or 

 to train at the end of a veranda, or over tall screens.
