The Blue Daisy. 



THE BLUE DAISY, (Agathea Ccelestis.) 



The flowers are the very counterpart of the Paris Daisy, 

 which is sky blue with a yellow disc. It makes a very 

 pretty object for summer decoration in the flower garden, 

 of easy growth and the plant may be had in flower all the 

 year 'round. It is allied to Cineraria, and requires about 

 the same treatment. A fine winter bloomer. Pkt., 100 

 seeds, 4 cents. 



AMARANTHUS, Gibosus. 



A very handsome annual, ornamental foliage plant with 

 long, drooping panicles of purplish-red flowers, frequently 

 2V 2 feet in length. Pkt., 100 seeds, 3 cents. 



AMARANTHUS, Splendens, Rainbow Plant. 



In the fall the leaves turn to the most brilliant colors. 

 Pkt., 100 seeds, 3 cents. 



Ageratum. 



AGERATUM, Imperial Dark Blue. 



A plant that blossoms constantly all summer in the gar- 

 den and makes a pleasing contrast of color with more bril- 

 liant varieties. Ioffer seed of the new Imperial Dark Blue as 

 best and most showy. Pkt., 200 seeds, 3 cents. 



ACACIA, Farnesiana. 



One of the most beautiful plants in cultivation, having 

 delicate, fern-like foliage and charming yellow, tassel-like 

 flowers of the most delicious fragrance. It is one of the 

 most easily cultivated of greenhouse plants, and suffici- 

 ently hardy to withstand the winter in a temperature very 

 little higher than freezing point. Seeds should be sown in 

 sandy peat, about *4 inch deep, in a temperature of 55 deg. 

 to 60 deg. suits them well. Pot off when large enough to 

 handle, and place in a cool, close pit or house until quite 

 established. Pkt., 10 seeds, 4 cents.
