Ever'blooming " Red Hot Poker Plant." 



This new variety is a marvelous improvement 

 over the old well-known " Red Hot Poker" plant. 

 It is a very free blooming sort, flowering continu- 

 ously throughout the season. The flowers are large 

 spikes of brilliant flame color, rich yellow at base, 

 with long stalks gracefully poised above the rich 

 green foliage. A bed of this in bloom is a grand 

 sight; a border of it around Cannas is admirable; 

 scattered throughout the flower garden it adds 

 grace and brightness and is in its glory when 

 nearly all other flowers are seared with early frosts. 

 The roots should be dug up before hard frost and 

 kept in sand in the cellar during winter. (See cut. |
