Summer Cypress or Belvidere 



(Kochia Trichophylla) 



An old-fashioned popular annual, sometimes known as Belvidere, 

 Mock Cypress, Mexican Fire Plant, etc. It is easily grown from 

 seed — forming oval bushes 2 to 2y2 feet high, densely clothed with 

 small feathery light-green foliage, deepening in color as the summer 

 advances until the whole plant assumes a fiery crimson hue. The 

 small numerous flowers borne in the fall are also of a bright red 

 color. An attractive plant at all times, either in garden beds 

 or pots. (See cut.) 



Placed at intervals' in beds of white Sweet Alyssum or among 

 "Dusty Millers" the effect is very fine, Pkt. 10c.

 June until frost. The perfectly formed

 stems, which "vase" beautifully. They
