Since the introduction of these lovely, 

 autumn-flowering plants into Europe, some 

 two hundred years ago, they have been de- 

 veloped to a wonderful extent. Those who 

 have in mind the small, old garden varieties 

 cannot imagine the exquisite beauty of 

 the newer sorts. They produce enorm- 

 ous massive flowers of most beautiful 

 colors and perfect shape. Their culture 

 is the easiest. See "How to Grow Them" 

 on circular enclosed, and if further in- 

 formation is desired it will be furnished 

 uiion application. Our collection con- 

 tains the best and most beautiful of the 

 newer varieties as well as the choicest of 

 the standard sorts. We offer them at 

 prices within the reach of all, as we 

 ^ would like to see them growing in 

 ^ '^' every garden and in every home.
