Bird of Paradise. 



BIRD OF PARADISE, (Poinciana Gillesi.) 



The color of the flower is a golden yellow, measuring two and a 

 half inches across, with shape as shown in illustration, and are pro- 

 duced in very large trusses. The most beautiful part of the flower 

 is the large pistils, which are spread out in fan-like form, and are 

 of bright crimson color. The foliage is also highly decorative, re- 

 minding one of a very delicate Acacia. If the seed, is started early, 

 it will produce blooms in great profusion the first year. Pkt., 10 

 seeds, 8 cts. 



BALSAM APPLE. 



A beautiful climbing plant with apple-shaped fruits, which, if 

 preserved in alcohol, make a most useful liniment. Pkt., 10 seeds, 

 3 cts. 



Defiance Balsam. 



DEFIANCE BALSAM, (Lady Slipper.) 



The most perfect in form and largest double flowered Balsam yet 

 developed, and by careful growth and selection has attained a stand- 

 ard that will be found hard to improve. The Mixture, which I of- 

 fer, is composed in nearly equal proportions of eight colors. Rose, 

 Rose White Spotted, Pink, Scarlet, White Tinted Violet, White 

 Spotted, Scarlet White, Spotted and Purple; each having been grown 

 separately. Pkt., 30 seeds, 4 cts. 



BALSAM— Good Mixed. A splendid strain, good colors and large 

 double flowers; note M ual to "Defiance," but gives good satisfaction.
