THE MOON FLOWER (Ipomcea Nocti- 

 flora). 



This beautiful variety of Ipomoea or Evening Glory 

 has not had the atten- 

 tion it deserves. It 

 was brought promi- 

 nently before the pub- 

 lic the past year, and 

 at once became im- 

 mensely popular. Too 

 much cannot be said 

 in praise of this beau- 

 tiful novelty. It is a 

 strong-growing vine, 

 easy to cultivate and 

 can be trained on 

 strings or wires to a 

 height of 20 feet or 

 more. Th« flowers 

 are very large, 4 to 6 

 inches in diameter, 

 and splendidly formed,

 blue, others pure 

 white. The vines are 

 covered nightly, from 

 August to November 

 with hundreds of 



beautiful Moon-Like moon flower.

 rich Jessamine odor. 10 cts. per pkt.; 3 pkts. for 25 cts. 



GIANT WHITE SPIRAL MIGNONETTE. 



NEW GIANT WHITE SPIRAL MIGN- 

 ONETTE. 



We give the introducer's description of this splendid new 

 Mignonette: 



"This grand Mignonette grows two or three feet high, 

 perfectly erect, and we measured spikes of bloom on our 

 grounds this season which were fifteen inches long. Its 

 color is pure snow white, and the grand spikes of bloom can 

 be seen for a long distance, and being so beautiful in form 

 and color, much unlike anything else in cultivation, it at- 

 tracts the attention of everybody. Its fragrance is rich and 

 powerful, and it will produce twice as much bloom as any 

 other variety. Seed can be sown in the open ground in 

 April or May, where it will germinate very quickly and 

 grow rapidly, and commence blooming early in June. If 

 planted in pots at any time during the year they will soon 

 bloom, and make most beautiful pot plants, especially in the 

 Winter and Spring. Try it, and you will never cultivate a gar- 

 den without it. It will far exceed your expectations." Per 

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