WALL FLOWER. 



THESE old European favorites are not as much grown and appreciated in 

 this country, as they deserve, due, no doubt, to the fact that they are 

 scarcely hardy in very cold locations, but in sheltered locations with pro- 

 tection they winter safely in Northern States, though, perhaps, it is better 

 to sow the seed annually in spring, and winter the young plants over in the 

 cold frame. They are worth the trouble, making nice bushy plants, 1 V 2 feet 

 high, bearing in the spring long spikes of most deliciously fragrant flowers of 

 various colors, crimson, purple, yellow, apricot, mahogany, pink, etc.

TUFTED OK BEDDING "PANSY VIOLETS" 



New Large' Flowering Hybrids. 



(Viola cornuta grandiflora hybrida.) 

 This new and improved strain produces beautiful pansy-like blossoms, 

 2 to 2\i inches across, of great substance and of most brilliant colors, 

 including white, lemon, orange, claret, crimson, maroon, lavender, purple, 

 silver-gray, rose, black, blue, etc.; also fancy varieties tinted, striped, 

 blotched, feathered, picotee-edged, etc. The plants are hardy, of vig- 

 orous growth, forming deep-rooting, compact, tufted clumps. Planted 

 in masses or lines they form perfect mats covered with myriads of flow- 

 ers from spring until cold weather. They are more perennial in character 

 than pansies, throwing out new roots annually, adapting them to per- 

 manent beds, edgings, etc. The flowers are borne on long stems which 

 shoot up like those of the violet directly from the roots, which accounts 

 for their continuous bloom for nine months in the year. Many of them 

 are as highly scented as the sweetest violet. Mixed Colors Pkt. 25c.
