COLE'S GARDEN ANNUAL. 



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. 



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



GIANT TRIMARDEAU PANSY. 



VERBENA HYBRIDA 

 COMPACTA. 



(TOM THUMB VERBENA.) 



A new and fine strain. The plants 

 spread so as to form almost circular 

 bushes of about two feet in diameter, 

 throwing up in a singularly compact man- 

 ner, on stiff and erect stems, a great num- 

 ber of flowers, which are elegantly carried 

 above the dark green foliage. The indi- 

 vidual flowers are large and well formed. 

 The mixture contains a great variety of 

 color. 



Per pkt., 15 cts., 2 pkts., 25 cts. 



MAMMOTH, OR LARGE FLOWERING 



VERBENA. 



This wonderful variety has created a great sensation for their enor- 

 mous size and brilliancy of colors. Flowers of this Mammoth variety 

 when well grown measure fully nine inches in circumference. Plant 

 more vigorous than the ordinary variety, and far excel them in dazzling 

 richness and variety of colors. The distinct white eye adds greatly to 

 their striking ana beautiful appearance; choice mixed. 



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



STOCKS, LARGE FLOWERING PERPETUAL 

 WHITE. 



This fine variety is one of the most valuable Ten Weeks' Stock ever 

 introduced. It is of strong growth and fine branching habit. It grows in 

 the open ground, to the height of V/ 2 feet, and if sown early will produce 

 a great abundance of bloom free from May or June until November. 

 The individualfiowers are uncommonly large, of a fine>osette-like shape, 

 and the purest Dossible white. The flowers appear on each little shoot, and the oftener they are cut. 

 the better they seem to like it. Indeed it is a veritable "'Cut and Come Again." It also succeeds 

 splendidly as a pot plant, and the flowers are delicately fragrant. 



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