 and ornamental foliage. The colors ap- 

 pear in rich shades of pink, white, crimson, 

 etc. It can be easily raised from seed, 

 which may be sown at any time, but for 

 ■winter blooming should be started early

 to 6 weeks to germinate. By autumn a 

 bulb will be formed which will bloom the 

 following winter or spring. Pkt., 10 cts.

 "Bright Eyes.'' A bed of Coreopsis a- 

 lone makes a brilliant sight with its 

 various shades of yellow, orange and 

 reddish brown. Finest mixed. Pkt., 2c.

 yellow flowers much larger than the 

 ordinary blossom, growing on long, 

 slender stems. Fine for cutting. Per- 

 ennial. Pkt., 4 cts. 



COREOPSIS LANCEOLATA. 



A lovely improved variety, with flow- 

 ers much larger than any heretofore 

 offered. Some are saucer-shaped, oth- 

 ers flat and some like great butter-cups, 

 while the petals have pinked or irregu- 

 larlv fringed edges. Some are light 

 vellbw, others a deeper shade, darker 

 around the eye. Hardy perennial, blos- 

 soming the first year. Pkt., 6 cts.

CYPRESS VINE. 



A beautiful climber, with delicate, 

 feathery, dark green foliage, dotted 

 with bright, velvety, little star- 

 shaped, scarlet flowers, The vine

 covered with flowers for three 

 months. Perennial. Pkt., 3 cts. 



ROCKET CYPRESS. 



A remarkably striking plant, 

 growing to a height of l 1 ^ to 2^2 feet.

 those of the vine, but the method 

 of flowering is different. The plant 

 shoots up a tall spike, literally mat- 

 ted with blossoms to the length or a 

 foot or more, fiery-scarlet in color, 

 making a truly rocket-like appear- 

 ance. Some plants have only one 

 tall spike, others are branched", can- 

 delabrum fashion, each branch sur- 

 mounted bv its rocket of fire. Hardy 

 perennial. Pkt., 5 cts.
