 climbers. The flowers are fully double the size, and the 

 plants and foliage are 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 



i flowering by July and continue until frost.

 center, with anthers, or three times as many as 

 the older Mignonettes contain, consequently 

 this variety is correctly called a double Mignon- 

 ette. The color of the florets — fire-red — is 

 strengthened on account of the density of the 

 florets and spikes, thus presenting almost solid 

 columns of brilliant-red. effectively contrasted 

 against the healthy, rich green foliage. The 

 fragrance is delightfully rich and powerful.
