NEW DOUBLE TROP^OLUM-HER- 

 MINE GROSSHOFF. 



This is a grand and decided novelty ; it differs from all other 

 Tropseolums in the dwarf growth and large, perfectly double 

 flowers, which are about two inches in diameter and of a bright 

 orange-red color. 



It blooms continuously, and we know of no other plant that 

 will give better results under almost any treatment. It is well 

 adapted to grow in single specimens as a pot-plant, or for 

 planting in the open border. Its bright-colored flowers and 

 elegant habit of growth render it indispensable in the planting 

 of vases, baskets or window boxes. 



We feel confident in recommending, this plant for almost any 

 purpose, it having been tried at our nursery for over a year. 

 It was covered with flowers the entire summer, and flowered quite freely even during the dull winter months. 

 30 cents each ; $3.00 per dozen. 



NEW DOUBLE BLUE VIOLET— MARGUERITE DE SAVOIE. 



One of the finest Double Violets yet introduced. It has the style and habit of Marie Louise, but is much larger 

 in flower, color very rich deep blue, with a white centre, fragrant and free flowering ; habit and growth good. 

 This is one of the prettiest and most profitable to the grower of cut flowers. 25 cents ; £2.50 per dozen.
