HENDERSON'S WHOLESALE CATALOGUE FOR FLORISTS 



DIDISCUS COERULEUS OR BLUE LACE FLOWER 



DIDISCUS COERULEUS 



"Blue Lace Flower" 



It is extensively grown by cut flower growers, in the vicinity of New York 

 to supply the fashionable Fifth Avenue trade. The Blue Lace Flower was 

 introduced into the United States from Australia and is a welcome addition 

 to our garden annuals. The plants grow about 2 feet high, producing graceful 

 subdivided foliage. The lovely, umbel-shaped flowers, are composed of a 

 great number of small florets. The color is the most beautiful imaginable, 

 a clear, coerulean or heavenly blue — a rare and beautiful shade. 



Seed sown outdoors after danger from frost will produce plants which should 

 bloom continuously from July to October. It may be grown in the green- 

 house or conservatory for winter blooming. It is also desirable as a pot 

 plant. See engraving, Pkt., 25c; Per 500 seeds, 50c, Per oz. S2.50. 



HENDERSON'S EVERLASTING FLOWERS 



The Everlasting, or Strawflowers, are showy garden annuals, blooming 

 from early summer till late frost. However, they are chiefly prized for 

 their availability for decorative purposes during the winter months. 



The dried flowers lend themselves admirably for table adornment in the 

 home or in hotels, for making up ornamental baskets, in fact they may be 

 used for almost any floral decoration. See engraving.
