Humulus Japonicus. 



HUMULUS JAPONICUS, 

 (Japanese Hop.) 



One of the most rapid climbers grown, seed can be 

 sown in the open ground in spring and it will attain 

 enormous dimensions very quickly. The foliage is 

 luxuriant and it is one of the best plants for covering 

 verandas and trellises. Heat, drought and insects do 

 not trouble it. Pkt., 50 seeds, 4 cts. 



HEUCHERA 

 SANGUINEA. 



Truly a floral gem and 

 one of the most valuable 

 additions to the list of 

 hardy flowering plants 

 that 'has appeared in a 

 long time. The foliage, 

 which is evergreen, is 

 beautifully cut and mar- 

 bled and is very abundant. 

 The flowers are borne in 

 large, open, clean-stemmed 

 panicles, and are of the 

 most clear, bright, cheer- 

 ful and charming scarlet 

 imaginable. Although the 

 flowers are small, yet they 

 are so numerous in each 

 panicle, and the panicles 

 are thrown up in such pro- 

 fusion as to produce a most 

 brilliant effect. Blooming 

 as it does for a period of 

 several weeks, and as each 

 plant frequently sends up 

 a dozen or more stems of 

 its lovely flowers at a time, 

 some idea of its beauty and 

 value can be formed. Pkt., 

 100 seeds, 6 cts.

 Va., March 11, 1897, writes:— Your

Mrs. E. M. Murray, Blair, IN'eb., 

 February 3, 1S97, writes:— I have

 your seeds and I wish you the best
