 luxuriant gro-svth; the flowers -n-ill come double, semi-double, and a Jew, per-

1984 Convolvulous Minor or "Bush" Morning Glory. These dwarf-growing 

 Morning Glories are very desirable for beds or borders, as they form plants 

 1 J^ to 2 feet in diameter, and about 1 foot High. The flow^ers are borne ia 

 great profusion, and resemble very closely those of the tall morning glories; 

 but they remain open for a much longer period of time daily. In fact it 

 may be said without exaggeration that they remain open practically all day, 

 excepting in rainy weather. The mixture we oSer includes "many self colors," 

 as well as striped and flaked varieties.

CLEMATIS 



1957 Paniculata. One of the finest hardy perennial 

 climbers. Of robust habit, and covered from the 

 ground to the summit with pure white fragrant 

 flowers. The flowers are followed by pretty seed 

 pods of bronzy-red; 12 feet ^ Pkt. 10c. 



CLEOME ("SPIDER FLOWER" ) 



1965 Gigantea Rosea. Like many other garden annuals 

 of merit, Cleome, or giant spider plant as it is some- 

 times called has been neglected for years probably 

 because attention has not been directed to it by 

 seedsmen. 

 During the past few years saperintendents of many public parks have planted 

 it very extensively; and have proved that groups of Cleome are wonderfully 

 effective when grown amongst shrubbery or planted in separate beds. Private 

 gardeners have also taken up the flower and it bids fair t^o attain great 

 popularity. The plant bears very freely large heads of bright rose-colored 

 flowers with long antennae-like stamens, radiating in all directions. 



The feathery petals and long stamens give the flowers the appearance 

 of an Orchid. Sow seed in May and when the seedlings are three or four 

 inches high thin out to stand two feet apart. The plants grow very 

 rapidly and attain a height of from three to five feet. {See engraving.) 



Double-WMte "Snow Fairy" 



1988 A very novel and beautiful Morning Glory — producing freely and all summer long 

 — large pure white double Howers 2 J/2 to 3 inches across; the funnel-like center 

 being surrounded by numerous small curled petals — the whole flower being of 

 tassel-Uke effect P^^- 15c.
