ORNAMENTAL BEDDING PLANTS, Rivals of the Coleus 



Each, per pkt., 125 seeds, 8c; Koz., 15c; one pkt. of each 20c. 



Chilian, or Brazilian Beet. Leaves are crinkled and all shades of crimson, rose and yellovv. 



Crimson, or Willow-leaved Beet. With narrow drooping foliage of fine deep glossy crimson, 

 this equals the Coleus as an ornamental bedder, either used alone or with some contrasting leaf or color, 

 such as Dusty Miller, Golden Feather Feverfew, Sweet Alyssum, Candytuft, or Mignonette or some 

 ornamental grass. Try it and you will find you have made a new discovery. 



Coleus-leaved Borecole. A new form of variegated Kale, very useful and quaint for garnish- 

 ing and splendid for bedding, especially where a late display is desired, as it stands almost zero weather. 

 The finely cut and curled leaves take on, at approach of autumn, many striking colors, shades of rose 

 and pink, violet, green, white, yellow and purple.
