GIANTFLOWERING 



CLIMBING NASTURTIUMS. 



A new section obtained by a French specialist by hybridizing, and distin- 

 guished by flowers of a large size and a richness and variety of coloring not to 

 be found in Nasturtiums heretofore grown. There have already been pro- 

 duced twenty-two different colors or combinations of colors in these new 

 hybrids, including various shades of rose, salmon, bright red, pale yellow, etc., 

 either self-colored or spotted, mottled, striped, and margined. 



For covering trellises, fences, arbors, piazzas, trailing from vases, over 

 rockwork, etc., nothing can equal the gorgeous effect produced by their mar- 

 velous quantities of bloom, borne in uninterrupted splendor from early summer 

 until cut down by frost. Their ease of culture and rapidity of luxuriant 

 growth, 12 to 15 feet high, render them worthy of great popularity.
