Passiflora 

 Gracilis. 



This "Fairy Pas- 

 s ion V ine" is a 

 charming annual; 

 it has pretty light 

 g'reen leaves, and is 

 a very dainty and 

 graceful thing for 

 hanging baskets, 

 pots or trellises ; will 

 grow to a height of 

 10 to 15 feet out of 

 doors. The flowers 

 are white, followed 

 by seed fruits, at 

 first light green 

 shaded white; when 

 ripe they turn 

 bright shining red 

 and burst open, dis- 

 closing fiery scarlet 

 seeds; the entire 

 plant becoming 

 covered with these 

 fruits. The effect 

 is very pretty in- 

 deed. Pkt., 20 

 seeds, 10 cts.
