"TREASURE VggiE," 



(Childsia Wercklei.) 



A plant, entirely unknown to science until discovered recently 

 by Mr. Carlo Werckle, in the mountain regions of Costa Rica. It 

 is a beautiful climbing composite, suitable for cool, shady win- 

 dows or verandas. While it will grow to the height of 10 feet, it 

 blooms profusely when very small, its flowers being like a clem- 

 atis in shape but intense scarlet in color, which, added to the 

 beauty of its foliage and natural grace of growth, makes one of the 

 most elegant flowering plants ever seen. It is a quick, robust 

 grower, and so hardy and vigorous that it will stand any amount 

 of abuse. Specimens sent to the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew 

 attracted great attention, and it has been decided to call it Treas- 

 ure Vine on account of its great value. 



Fine plants, 25c. each ; 3 for 60c; 5 for $1.00. 



THE "ARBUTUS," or MAYFLOWER VERBENA.

Raised by Luther Burbank (the Wizard of Horticulture). The 

 shape of its flowers and clusters of bloom, as well as its color, are 

 identical with the flowers of the Trailing Arbutus, or Mayflower, 

 and having the same superb fragrance. The size of the flowers are 

 about equal to a silver quarter, and in delicate coloring and rich 

 perfume it has no rival. Strong plants, 10c. each ; 3 for 25c. 



Seed. Pkt. 50 seeds, 10c: 3 for 25c. 



RU SSE L I \JkE LEGANT SSSIMjj . (New.) 



A very striking semi-trailing plant, especially 

 adapted for hanging baskets, vases, or window 

 boxes, where a delicate, graceful effect is sought. 

 The plant is skeleton-like in growth, throwing long 

 spikes of rush-like branching foliage. 2 to 3 feet 

 long, which are literally covered with brilliant 

 coral-red florets. Well-grown plants. 3 to 4 feet in 

 diameter, look like a shower of delicate coral blos- 

 soms. Strong plants, 15c; 3 for 40c. 



RUSSELIfl MULTiPLORfl. (Mew.) similar to 

 above, but more 'a'elicate and pendant in growth, 

 and a more profuse bloomer, a well-grown plant, 

 being a perfect shower of bright coral-red flowers— 

 the most dainty basket plant extant. 



Strong plants, 20c; 3 for 50c
