Bouquet of Mixed Achimcnes. 



IT At.- AH °f a sudden these have 



j\le^O ACbimencs. become exceedingly popular, 

 and no wonder. The grand photos published in 

 several journals prove plainly what wonderful specimens 

 they form in a few months from a few small plants 

 started in pots or baskets. The shades of colors are 

 innumerable in their combinations, and the markings 

 and spottings bewildering. Really they are so grand 

 and so easy to grow that we recommend them. Late in 

 fall when done blooming you will find lots of little bulb- 

 lets. Keep these in sand or soil over winter 1o start 

 again in early spring. The colors comprise white, blue, 

 scarlet, sky-blue and spotted. Mixed varieties, all 

 colors, 3c. each; 5 for 12c; 10 for 20c.
