annual. The immense, Petunia-like flowers are borne on dwarf.

Salvia or Scarlet Sage 
The Salvias are among our most popular and useful bedding 
lants. They are easily raised from seeds sown in February or 
March in the greenhouse or hot-bed, the seedlings being trans- 
ferred to the open garden about the end of May. They bloom 
profusely from July until frost. Half-hardy perennials. 
3622 Bonfire. Very compact oval bushes, 2 4% feet high; brilliant 
scarlet flowers. The spikes stand out stiff and erect; over 
200 spikes to a plant is not unusual, and the spikes bear 
from 20 to 30 flowers each. (See illustration.)

3624 Scarlet Dragoon. The old Salvia Splendens, or Scarlet 
Sage, has long been a favorite, and our customers can appre- 
ciate the superiority of this new variety when we state that 
the flowers are nearly double the size. EE aro plants in 
bloom form compaet bushes 3 feet across by 3 feet high, 
and bloom from ground to summit. The waving masses of 
stening scarlet against green surroundings of lawn or 
oliage is matchless.

during the summer and fall dazzling scarlet flowers in pro-
