MISS MARY E. MARTIN, FLORAL PARK, NEW YORK. 



Antigonon — Llotmtain Rose 



This plant has been exploited 

 by a prominent iirm of florists until one 

 would, think it was the plant of plants ; 

 it is a good, even a grand plant, but re- 

 quires sometime to come to perfection, 

 and as far north as this the roots will 

 need some protection thrown over them 

 in shape of leaves, boughs or coarse 

 manure. 



Numberless clusters of deep pink 

 blossoms so completely cover the vine 

 as to almost hide the foliage. Grand 

 and effective. Plants, 15c. each, 2 for 

 25c. Seedpkt.,5c. 



^ pragrant Clerodendron. £> 

 Is a bold-looking plant of 

 good habit, producing dense heads 

 of rosy-white jessamine - scented 

 flowers, remaining perfect a long 

 ■while, and forming a bouquet of 

 their own. A plant that will please 

 you. Distinct. 15c.

Record of One Plant. Planted in an ordinary nail 

 keg in May, was in flower all the time till August, 

 when it had 590 clusters of flowers, continued in full 

 flower (removed to a greenhouse in October) to Decem- 

 ber, when 350 clusters were counted. At this time 

 every young branch was cut off to propagate, but 

 on January 14th it had 100 beautiful new clusters. The 

 plant has a most graceful drooping habit, grows rapid- 

 ly, and blooms persistently winter and summer, pro- 

 ducing a cluster of flowers at each leaf. Color, most 

 delicate, clear, brilliant, rosy lilac: foliage, bright dark 

 green. Does equally well in winter or summer.

 ^^ Known as Australian Silk Oak (but is net 



a true Oak). A splend.d ferny- l.-av o d pot plant, as 

 decorative as a palm, as hardy and easily manag-ed 

 as a geranium, arid as graceful as a fern. The dust, 

 heat and gas of living rooms have no visible effect 

 on it, and everybody should grow it. The seed 

 grows rapidly and soon makes a lovely little plant. 

 Pkt. 5c.
