BEGONIA. 



Cloire de Lorraine 



This marvelous Begonia 

 is just now the most sought 

 after of any flowering 

 plant grown for Christinas 

 and winter decorations. 

 You all know it, I think. 

 The plant is 1 i t e r a 1 1 y 

 smothered with its bright 

 coral bloom. ^Plants from 

 214 inch pots,* 25c. each, 

 2 for 50c. Largre plants 

 from 3 to 4 inch pots, 

 50c. each. 



COLEUS THYRSOIDEUS. 



(The New Winter Flowering Coleus.) 



Entirely distinct from the varieties of Coleus heretofore known, all of which were grown for 

 their beautifully colored and variegated foliage. This species, which comes from Central Africa, is 

 not a foliage plant, its leaves being plain green ; but it is a really grand flowering plant, and a Winter 

 flowering plant at that, its season of flowering being from the Christmas holidays until late in May. 



The plant is of strong growth, attaining a height of 2 to 2% feet, and produces dense cylindrical 

 spikes one inch in diameter, and from G to 12 inches long, of beautiful rich.blue flowers, which remind 

 one of a spike of blue Larkspur. Blue flowers at all seasons of the year are not plentiful, and always 

 much sought after, especially so during the winter season. We consider this plant a perfect gem, 

 and a plant that has. a* great future as a flowering plant for the Holidays, in which it may even rival 

 the Lorraine Begonias. Price. 1 5c. each, 2 for 25e.
