FLOWER SEED NOVELTIES OE MERIT 



We offer below some of the best new varieties of Flower Seed, which have been thoroughly 

 tested and approved. Want of space prevents our giving any illustrations of these novelties, 

 although their fine qualities easily deserve full-page description and illustration. Each and every 

 one is of sterling merit and will give the utmost satisfaction. 



New Ever-Blooming Aster " Ideal " 



This magnificent new Aster produces perhaps more salable cut flowers to the plant than any 

 other kind. The plants run from 16 to 18 inches high, and are in bloom from the beginning of 

 August to the end of September almost uninterruptedly. In shape the plants resemble the Vic- 

 toria type, except the flowers are looser, which gives them a very graceful appearance. The flow- 

 ers range from white, light blue, dark blue and -crimson. Per pkt., 10 cts.; 3 pkts. for 25 cts. 



New Plume Celosia "Magnificent 



)> 



This new strain of Celosia is of unusual beauty, growing either in a border or as single speci- 

 mens. The plants are of compact, pyramidal growth, about two feet in height and the same in 

 diameter. They branch freely, and are well set with dark green foliage, and each stem or branch 

 terminates in a large, broad, feathei-y head of the most attractive plume-like character. The 

 colorings are most brilliant and varied; some of the plumes are in clear, glowing shades of 

 yellow, others crimson, scarlet and bright red, with a large range of intervening shades. We 

 specially recommend it as the best and brightest Celosia in cultivation. Per pkt., 10 cts.; 3 pkts. 

 for 25 cts. 



New Success Coleus 



This valuable selection has proven a success, surprise and delight. Every variation, color and 

 marking is included in the "Success Coleus." Start the seed indoors. When the little plants show 

 four leaves, thin out by transplanting a proportion to other pots, etc., and thus "Success Coleus" 

 can be grown until all danger of frost is past; then plant in beds. A single packet can be de- 

 pended on for a coinplete collection of colors and sufficient plants for a medium-sized bed. Per 

 pkt., 15 cts.; 2 pkts. for 25 cts.; 4 pkts.. 50 cts.; 9 pkts., $1. 



New "Prilled and Pancy" Japanese Morning Glory 



In these magnificent new sorts in some of the flowers the tissue of the corolla is so ample that 

 it lays in heavy overlapping folds and the outer edges are deeply lobed. Apart from these distinct 

 ruffled flowers, the remainder of the flowers are very superior in size, variety of colorings and en- 

 tirely distinct shades. Per pkt., 10 cts.; 3 pkts. for 25 cts. 



Nicotiana Sanderae 



This beautiful new Hybrid Nicotiana with its rosy carmine flowers produces a startlingly beau- 

 tiful effect in the gai'den. Such an intensely rosy carmine flower is unknow^n in any plant of 

 similar character; magnificent either for flower beds, shrubbery borders or in the wild garden. 

 There is no plant easier to gTow\ The care given to the most ordinary annual will suit this new 

 Nicotiana admirably and its orchid like blossoms can be had in the garden all Summer and Fall. 

 Per pkt., 15 cts.; 4 pkts. for 50 cts. 



New Salvia Splendens " Pireball " 



Of the many sorts of Salvia which are now cultivated this splendid novelty is beyond any ques- 

 tion of doubt the finest of all. It has larger flowers, and is also more free flowering than any 

 other kind. It forms a bush of about 1.5 to 20 inches high, from which spring broad, long spikes 

 covered with a great number of flowers of tlie most fiery scai'let. The plants branch freely and 

 are most profuse bloomers. It is the earliest of all, flowering by the beginning of July and contin- 

 ues without a break until frost. It is easily raised from seed and comes true. Per pkt., 15 cts.; 

 4 pkts. for 50 cts.
