GARDEN 3IANUAE FOR THE SOUTHERN STATES. 



121 



plants in cultivation for pots or the open 

 ground. They are of endless colors and 

 markings. When planted in the garden they 

 will show better if planted in masses, and a 

 little elevated above the le.el of the garden. 

 Half foot high. October till March. 



Large Trimardeau Pansy. This is the 

 largest variety in cultivation; the flowers arc 

 well formed, generally three spotted, quite 

 distinct; the plants grow compact. 



Non Plus Ultra. Benary's Elite Pansy. 

 This variety from Germany is the finest of 

 all Pansies. Endowed with well-formed flow- 

 ers in endless colors and shades, they form a 

 valuable acquisition to our many varieties in 

 cultivation, and should not be missing in any 

 garden. Price, 2_c. per package. 



Cassier's Improved Pansy. A beautiful 

 variety with large flowers of most perfect 

 form, exquisite coloring and very compact 

 growth. The flowers are generally five-spot- 

 ted, but more distinctly marked than the 

 Trimardeau. Price, 25c. per packet. 



Bugnot's Improved Blotched Pansy. 

 This variety is certainly the handsomest 

 of all the Pansies, and like the Odier's are 

 five blotched, and generally yellow or white 

 edged. The flowers are of the most perfect 

 form and beautiful coloring. This variety is 

 one of the best and forms a fine acquisition 

 to our already large collection. Price, per 

 packet, 25c. 



Pansy. Odier, or Blotched, superb, large- 

 eyed flowers. Of very good shape and beau- 

 tiful blotched with rich and varied colors.

Pansy. Lord Beaconsfield. Large flowers, 

 of deep purple violet, shading off in the top 

 petals to a white hue. Packet, 25c. 



Tagetes Patula. 



Zinnia elegans, fl. pi. Double Zinnia. 

 Plants of very easy culture, flowering very 

 profusely through the whole summer and fall; 

 producing double flowers of all colors, almost 

 as large as the flowers of a Dahlia. Three 

 feet high. February till August. 



Zinnia elegans pumila. fl. pi. Dwarf 

 Double mixed. A new dwarf selection es- 

 pecially desirable. The compact, bushy 

 plants rarely grow over two feet high, and 

 are covered with large flowers of great 

 beauty. 



Zinnia elegans grandiflora robusta 

 plenissima. A variety introduced here 

 from Germany. The plants of this class 

 of showy and attractive annuals are of 

 very robust growth and produce very 

 large and extremely double flowers, meas- 

 uring from four to five inches in diameter. 

 The seeds we offer for sale come direct from 

 the originator, and contain about eight 

 beautiful different colors, mostly very bright. 



Steckler's Giant Zinnia. This Zinnia is 

 without doubt the largest and finest thus far 

 introduced. It is a cross between the Ele- 

 gans Pumila, fl. pi., and the Elegans grandi- 

 flora robusta varieties. The flower measures 

 from tip to tip fully 6| inches; half early, 

 semi-high and perfectly double. Each pack- 

 age contains a fine selection of beautiful 

 colors, 15c per packr-;c.
