Coleus. 



GOLEUS. 



One of the best known and most universally admired or- 

 namental foliage plants, in an endless variety of colors and 

 shadings, indispensable for ribbon and carpet bedding, or 

 as single specimens. Coleus seed germinates easily, and 

 success is as sure as with an ordinary annual. Pkt., ISO 

 seeds, 5 cts. 



COCKSCOMB, Queen of Dwarfs. 



This is the best dwarf-growing Cockscomb; the plants 

 only grow about eight inches high, are firmly set in the 

 crown with well-balanced, large heads, ten to twelve inches 

 across. They grow very uniformly and present an unusu- 

 ally solid effect in color, which is a rich, ruby red, of ex- 

 treme brilliancy. Pkt., 100 seeds, 4 cts. 



COCKSCOMB.-Mized. Pkt., 100 seeds, 3 ots. 



Datura Cornucopia. 



DATURA CORNUCOPIA, "HORN OF PLENTY." 



Discovered in South America in 1892 by a collector of Orchids. The 

 plant is of robust habit, with thick, dark brown-purple, shining stems. 

 The branches are numerous, spreading three or four feet; thick, large, 

 dark green colored leaves. The flowers are trumpet shaped, measuring 

 eight to ten inches in length and five to seven inches across the mouth 

 and form three distinct flowers, growing- each within the other, the 

 mouth of corolla is a most delicate white, beautifully marbled with royal 

 purple. A single plant gives from 200 to 300 fragrant blooms during the 

 season, followed by a large thorny seed vessel, which adds to its beauty; 

 is of the easiest culture, plant at the end of May in a warm, rich soil; cat 

 be cultivated as an isolated specimen, in masses, for centers of beds, ot 

 to fill barren places, and produces a striking effect. Pkt., 15 seeds* 

 4 cts. 



DATURA. OR TRUMPET FLOWER. MIXED. 



Large branching plants, producing handsome double and single trum- 

 pet-shaped blossoms, white, blue, yellow and lilac, of exquisite fragrance. 

 The blossoms open during the night, remaining open one day and then 

 perish. They bloom freely from seed sown in the open ground the first 

 season, and the roots can be taken up and kept over winter. Pkt., 20 

 seeds. 3 cts. 



Mrs. O. H. Mantor, Stoneham, Mass., Max 13, 1899, writes:— I think your catalogue 

 a gem, so pretty and so nicely arranged.
