SALVIA. Scarlet Sage. 



SALVIA BONFIRE.

 finest of all the Salvias, remarkable in the profus-

 constantly throughout the whole season in spikes 

 of vivid red, standing well above the fo iage and 

 producing a gorgeous blaze of color. It is a great 

 improvement upon the old S splendens, of dwarf, 

 compact habit, about two feet high, and comes 

 into bloom early. Unsurpassed for massing. 



Each 10c. ; doz., $1.00. ; 100, $6 00. 



Manda's Golden Leaved. Abundant 

 foliage of bright golden yellow, and spikes of 

 vivid scarlet flowers. It is not a free bloomer and

 renders it valuable for bordering and massing for 

 ornamental effect, producing a fine contrast of 

 color against other plants. Dwarf in habit.
