 AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER FLOWEH- 

 IJMG PLANT EVER CULTIVATED. 



A glorious, hardy plant and one that ought to find a place in every garuen. One who has 

 never seen it canuot imat;ii e its beauty in full bloom, nor the wealth of blossoms it will produce; 

 flowers of the brightest goldea color. Mr. "O'llliam Falconer, the best authority on plants in this 

 country, says of it: " When I saw the doubltj-llowering form of Rudbeckia Laciniata in bloom in 

 your grounds in summer recently, I w as amazed, for notw ithstauUiD^ my loug and intimate ac- 

 quaintance with plants, I had never be fore seen a double -flowered Rudbeckia, and 1 was delighted 

 with the fullness and gorgeousness of the blossoms and their clear, bright yellow color. You gave 

 me a plant, and it was set out in good garden ground. It grew vigorously and threw up stroig 

 branching flower stems 6 feet high, laden with sheaves of golden blossoms as large as fair chrys- 

 anthemums, and all having an elegant graceful appearance, without any of the slifTness in habit 

 or blossom peculiar to sunflowers. JIany eminent florists and amateurs have seen i' here and all 

 admired it. As cut flowers, the blossoms last well. In fact, 1 unhesitatingly regard il as the 

 most desiraVile introcl^iciion nniont; hanlv pevf niiials since we got Clematis Pahiculata."
