DREER'S GARDEN CALENDAR— SuppUvient. 



DWARF COMPACT MULTIFLORA HYBRID PETUNIA. 



This new Single Poppy will form a striking and beautiful contrast with Papaver U^nbrosuw, which has 

 scarlet flowers, marked with a black spot on each petal ; hardy annual ; 2 feet. Pkt., 15 cts. 

 PETUNIA, Hybrida Nana Compacta Multiilora. This new really divar/ \a.T\&iy and profuse bloomer 



grows 5 to 8 inches high, by the 

 same in diameter. Of a cherry-red 

 color, with a regularly formed white 

 star; effective for massing and pot 

 culture. Half-hardy perennial, 

 blooming from seed the first season ; 

 treated like hardy annuals. Pkt., 

 20 cts. 

 PETUNIA, Double Lilliput. This 

 new double variety, of the much ad- 

 mired Petunia Nana Compacta, 

 forms, like the latter, quite dwarf 

 and dense bushes, upon which are 

 borne very numerous and exceeding- 

 ly pretty small double flowers of the 

 most charming shades of color. The 

 flowers are in part spotted, in part 

 striped, and also self-colored, and 

 give to the plants an uncommonly 

 pleasing appearance. 25 cts. 

 PETUNIA, Large-Flowered Yel- 

 low Throat. The new yellow- 

 throated Petunia now offered has after several years' careful selection been finally fixed in character. The 

 characteristics are large-sized flowers of faultless form, with a broad and deep yellow throat, which is generally 

 veined after the manner of the Salpiglossis. The latter coloring heightens the eff'ect of that of the outer surface 

 of the petals, and completes the beauty of the entire flower. This particular class gives very little seed. 

 50 cts.

 light green foliage; producing freely large trusses of pure white flowers with a citron eye, measuring 2^

 treated as green-house annuals. Pkt., 50 cts.

 habit and frilled or Ci imped edged

 with a pale yellow eye, are den- 

 tated, and show a tendency to 

 become double. Pkt., 50 cts. 

 PRIMULA, Fimbriata Cristata 

 Nana Rubra. This new variety 

 is the same as the above, except 

 the flowers are of a beautiful bright 

 red color. Pkt., 50 cts. 

 SALVIA, Carduacea. A very prom- 

 ising ornamental novelty from Cali- 

 fornia, having no resemblance to 

 any other variety of Sage. The 

 plant forms a many-branched bush, 

 2^ feet high, with white woolly 

 Thistle-like leaves, producing its 

 large, light-blue fimbriated lower 

 lipped flowers in whorls, 4 to 6 on a
