SINGLE WHITE PBIMROSE. 



CHINESE PRiriROSES. 



For winter flowers there is no more 

 desirable plant than the Chinese Prim-

 incessantly throughout the winter. Our

LARGE-FLOWERING PANSIES. 



"We are growing this season a very 

 fine strain of Pansy plants, largely yellow 

 with a fair mixture of purple, blue, 

 black, bronze, etc., from seed of our own 

 saving, and can unhesitatingly recom- 

 mend them either for winter or spring 

 blooming. 50c. doz. 



PHRYNIUn VARIEGATUM. 



A plant which we believe is destined 

 to take a prominent place among dec- 

 orative plants for the house, and in 

 subtropical bedding in the open ground 

 in summer. The foliage is beautifully 

 marked creamy white on a dark green 

 ground. SI. 00 each; young plants, 35c. 

 each. 



SWAINSONIA GALEGIFOLIA 

 ALBA. 



A plant which is becoming very popular 

 for house culture. Foliage as graceful 

 as an Acacia; flowers pure white, pro- 

 duced in sprays of 12 to 20 flowers each, 

 and resembling Sweet Peas. It is of the 

 easiest culture and ever-blooming. 20c. 

 each, $2.00 doz. 



PELARGONIUnS. 



We offer a fine collection of these, from the best 

 of European growers. They embrace the most 

 distinct colors and shades in cultivation. 30c. each, 

 set of 12 for $3.00. 



SniLAX VINES. 



Familiar to every one. Easily grown if trained 

 to strings or stakes. 10c. each, $1.00 doz. 



NEW VIOLET, LADY HUME CAMPBELL. 



A new forcing variety, under good conditions the 

 equal of Marie Louise in color and size of bloom. 

 Its excelling merit is its strong healthy constitution. 

 Growers who were forced to abandon Marie Louise 

 have found this variety to do well, apparently 

 entirely free from the disease which destroyed the 

 other. 30c. each, $3.00 doz., $16.00 per 100. 



VIOLET, MARIE LOUISE. 



The well-known double purple variety. We offer 

 strong healthy plants, so that any amateur wilt 

 have no difficulty in growing them. Thousands of 

 this peerless variety are grown for the flowers- 

 alone to supply the cut flower markets of the 

 country during the winter season. 20c. each, $2.00^ 

 doz., $12.00 per 100. , 



The HARDY DOUBLE ENGLISH VIOLET. 



This Violet is entirely hardy, perfectly double,, 

 a deep violet color and most deliciously fragrant 

 It surpasses the well-known "Marie Louise" 

 Violet in richness of color, being many shades 

 darker, and far excels it in its delightful odor; 

 this is one of its greatest merits. It is entirely 

 free from disease of any kind, will grow and bloom 

 in any garden and in any situation. It is entirely 

 hardy and can be left out in the open ground all 

 winter. Nothing is more appropriate for cemetery 

 plots than the Hardy Double English Violet. 

 (See cut.) Price, 1st size, large flowering clumps, 

 30c. each, $3.00 doz., $20.00 per 100.
