Salpiglosis, Velvet Flower. 



The graceful flowers, borne on long stems, range in 

 color from the most delicate shades of light blue and 

 straw color to the deepest purple and the richest brown 

 and maroon. 



The quaint, funnel-shaped flowers somewhat resemble 

 those of the Petunia, and are borne in great pro- 

 fusion. The metallic gloss and distinct veining 

 of the petals present almost the appearance of 

 jeweled enamels. Large flowering, mixed.
