Scarlet Sage. 



SCARLET SAGE (Salvia Splendens) 



One of the grandest plants in cultivation— 

 a bed of them surpassing the finest scarlet 

 geraniums in brilliancy and continuous 

 bloom; the flower spikes often measure ten 

 to twelve inches in length, and there are as 

 many as two hundred spikes on a well, grown 

 plant. From the time they first begin to flow- 

 er, the plants are never but of bloom until 

 killed by late frosts. It is easily grown from 

 seed and the purchase of plants should be 

 abandoned. Pkt., 25 seeds, 4 cents. 



SALVIA FARINACEA. 



The plants form dwarf, compact bushes, 

 with long spikes of beautiful blue flowers, 

 which makes a charming contrast when 

 grown with the scarlet described above. Pkt., 

 35 seeds, 4 cents.
