Remarkable for the brilliancy and abundance of their 

 large, terminal flowers, completely hiding the foliage.

 deepest purple, eyed and striped. For masses of sepa- 

 rate colors and for cutting for bouquets, they are unsur- 

 passed. The seed can be planted in open ground in au- 

 tumn or spring or plants may be started in hot-bed and 

 transplanted. Give good, rich ground, and set plants 

 six inches apart each way. Hardy annual; one foot high.
