COLE'S GARDEN ANNUAL. 



NEW SINGLE DAHLIAS. 



Few flowers havQ attracted so much attention or 

 admiration as the Single Dahlias. Much skill and 

 labor has been expended to biing them to their pres- 

 ent state of perfection. In England, the single va- 

 rieties have attained a popularity almost amount- 

 ing to a mania, being already so extensively 

 used for corsage and personal adornment, for table 

 designs, and for baskets and vases, as to almost 

 rival roses, their many colors affording such a great 

 scope in their disposal. They are very easily raised 

 from seed; planted in good rich soil, in a sunny posi- 

 tion, they begin to flower in July and continue until 

 October, and in sheltered places as late as Novem- 

 ber. They are frequently entirely covered with 

 bloom, and the more they are cut the more flowers 

 are produced. The seed we offer is saved from the 

 choicest named varieties, of every shade of light 

 and dark scarlet, yellow maroon, carmine, purple, ' 

 lilac, pure white, varigated. etc. 



Per pkt., 10 cts., 3 pkts., 25 cts. 



DOUBLE DAISY SNOWBALL. 



A beautiful white flowered variety of the large 

 flowered type, with double flowers, of great value 

 for cutting. It reproduces itself almost true 

 from seed, and the large flowers are almost per- 

 fectly double and of the purest white color. 

 P^r Dkt.. 10 cts. ; 3 pkts., 25 cts. 



DOUBLJE PAXSY SNOWBALL 



bUgnot's large blotched pansy. 



A new French variety of the Giant Odier type, with very large and beautiful colored flowers; the 

 most striking variety ever raised. No such Pansies were ever seen on exhibition in this country. 

 They are large, firm, and of brilliant colors, thickly covered with fine hair lines. 



Per pkt., 20 cts., 3 pkts., 50 cts. 



GIANT TRIMARDEAU 



paNsy. 



An altogether distinct and beautiful new 

 class of Pansy, the flowers of which are of very 

 large size; some have measured four inches in 

 diameter— in fact, larger than anything 

 hitherto attained in the genus. Each flower is 

 marked with three large blotches or spots, and 

 stands well above the foliage; the plants may 

 be expected to produce the same endless 

 variety and beautiful shades of color that are 

 found in other classes of this popular plant. 

 They continue to bloom profusely throughout 

 the season. Colors are very rich and beautiful. 

 All should try it.
