Heckrott's Ever-Blooming Honeysuckle. 



Lonicera Heckrottii. A valuable ever-blooming variety: flowers bright carmine- 

 red, with yellow and buff markings at the, ends of the tubes: deliciously fragrant. 

 This is a grand variety and displaces Belgica, the old fragrant Dutch Honey- 

 suckle, being superior- to it in every way. (See cut.) Price, strong. 2-year-old 

 plants. 40c. each. S4.00 per doz. 



Henderson's Ever-Blooming Honeysuckle. 



Lonicera Hendersonii. Large clusters of yellow trumpet-shaped blooms, chang- 

 ing the second day to orange-red' on every young twig throughout the entire 

 growing season, thus becoming a true ever-bloomer. Both colors, red and 

 yellow, show clearly in each cluster as long as it lasts. The plant is a healthy 

 grower, with a tendency to climb very high. It makes a good companion with 

 the Chinese Honeysuckle, on account of the great profusion of its brilliant flow- 

 ers. The clusters are larger and longer than the ordinary Honeysuckle, are 

 borne on longer stalks, hold better, and are valuable for cut flowers. Price.
