 PERPETUAL-BLOOMING 



Sweet triolets. 



ICH in modest beauty, famous for its enchanting fragrance, and 

 truly "the sweetest flower that grows," the Violet keeps steadfastlv 

 in tue front rank of popularity. With the last snows of Winter 

 still about it, this gentle flower shyly appears from out its icv bed 

 heralding the coming of Spring. Sturdily it grows and sweetly it; blooms, and" all the 

 world loves it. Violets are perfectly hardy, and when planted outdoors a shady situation 

 should be selected ; a light covering of leaves or litter will prove beneficial. For Winter 

 bU)oming indoors, keep in cool situation and water freely. By observing these simple instruc- 

 tionb, one can have a bountiful profusion of these dainty little flowers. New Violet California 

 has proven itself to be one of the most satisfactoiy varieties in existence, and we recommend it 

 highly. Among double Violets Lady Hume Campbell is the best. We offer only the leadin'^ 

 kinds'. Our stock is in splendid condition— absolutely clean and healthy. "^
