Burbank's Shasta Daisy. 



One-half Natural Size. 

 THIS SHASTA DAISY is one of the 



most marvelous productions in the flower 

 line that has ever been brought to the 

 notice of floriculturists. It is the f st 

 of a new type, which has been obtained 

 by first combining the free-flowering 

 American species with the large, but 

 coarse, European species, and the Jap- 

 anese species Nipponicum, after which 

 rigid selections through a series of years 

 has produced the present wonderfully 

 beautiful and useful strain. Its first quali- 

 fication is hardiness; it can be grown out 

 out of doors by anyone where it is not 

 cold enough to kill oak trees. It is per- 

 ennial, blooming better and more abund- 

 antly each season. It can be multiplied 

 rapidly by simple division, and it is not 

 particular as to soil. It blooms for sev- 

 eral months. The flowers are extremely 

 large and graceful, averaging about four 

 inches in diameter, with three or more 

 rows of petals of the purest glistening 

 whiteness, and are borne on single, 

 strong, stiff, wiry stems, nearly two feet 

 in length. The blooms when cut remain 

 perfectly fresh and in good condition for 

 two weeks or more. No other flower can 

 compare with it in usefulness.

Datura Cornucopia, "Horn of Plenty." 



Discovered in South Africa by a collector of Orchids. The plant is of robust haJbit, with 

 thick, dark, brown-purple, shining stems. The branches are numerous, spreading 3 or 4 feet; 

 thick, large, dark green colored leaves. The flowers are trumpet-shaped, measuring 8 or 10 

 inches in length and 5 to 7 inches across the mouth, and form, three distinct flowers growing 

 each within the other. The mouth of the corolla is the most delicate white, beautifully marked 

 with purple. A single plant gives from 200 to 300 fragrant blooms during the season, followed 

 by a large, thorny seed vessel, which adds to its beauty; is one of easiest culture; plant at 

 the end of May in a warm, rich soil; can be cultivated as an isolated specimen, in masses for 

 center of beds, or to fill barren places, and produces a striking effect. Pkt., 15 seeds, 5 cts.
