THE NEW GIANT WHITE M00NFL0WER 



I pomoea Grandiflora Maxl ..nis greatly improved variety of 



the popular Moonflower Vine, produces much larger flowers and in 

 greater profusion. If grown in well enriched soil in a warm sunny 

 location and given sufficient water while making growth, the vine will 

 attain a height of from 60 to 75 feet during the summer season, and be 

 covered with large lush green heart-shaped leaves, and will be studded 

 from July until frost with immense saucer-shaped flowers 7 to 8 inches 

 across and as glistening white as disks of white satin. They are also 

 softly fragrant. The flowers open about sunset and close the next 

 morning, though on cloudy days they remain open until noon. The 

 effect particularly on moon-lit nights is entrancinglv beautiful.

BRAZILIAN MORNING GLORY 



Ipom&a Selosa is the botanical name of this magnificent summer 

 climbing annual. It grows with the greatest vigor and luxuriance. 

 The leaves are 8 to 12 inches across, overlapping each other and 

 making a dense shade. The vine is covered with short reddish hairs 

 which, with its immense leaves and large clusters of curious seed 

 capsules, render it highly ornamental. We know of nothing better 

 for quickly covering a piazza, arbor or tree. The flowers are of beauti- 

 ful rose color, and are borne in large clusters. .Per oz., 75c; Pkt. 10c. 



"RARY RLUE" IPOMCEA 



This entrancingly beautiful climber came to us three years ago — 

 only a few seeds — from a customer in the middle west who wanted us 

 to grow it and identify the variety. _ The accompanying enthusiastic 

 description we proved to be fully justified. We do not know the 

 variety name but we do know that it is the most lovely light blue 

 Ipomcea and different from any other we have ever seen. The vines 

 grow luxuriamtly about 15 feet high, well clothed with large durable 

 leaves and commencing in July — from March sown seeds — the plants 

 are sheeted until frost with white-throated light cerulean-blue 

 flowers — about 2J^ inches across and of such substance that they often 

 remain open all day Per 100 seeds, 50c; Pkt. 10c.

 correspondingly larger and more robust, attaining a height of 6 to 10 

 feet; the vines quickly hide trellis from view and are thickly studded 

 with flowers nearly as large as Gloxinias. The plants from seed sown 

 in spring will begin flowering by July and continue until frost.
