MISS EMMA V. WHITE, 



New Amaranthus, "Brilliant" 



This is a hybrid of Amaranthus Tri-color, 

 and is unquestionably the most beautiful of 

 this class The leaves are brilliantly colored 

 a variegated red, which with its crimson-rose. 

 red and yellow-tinted head produces a gor- 

 geous effect. The plant does not have the 

 rank growth of the ordinary Amaranthus, 

 but grows more like coleus, and in fact is a 

 splendid substitute for the latter and well 

 deserves a place in the foliage bed. Pkt., 3c.

Amaranthus, "Brilliant." 

 Asparagus 

 Sprengeri. 



There is nothing hand- 

 somer for a hanging bas- 

 ket, and for bouquets, 

 wreaths or other decorat- 

 ing it far surpasses any 

 other Asparagus. Its 

 drooping feathery sprays 

 of emerald green grow to 

 a length of from two to 

 eight feet, and its growth 

 is so rapid that the long 

 beautiful sprays will num- 

 ber close upon a hundred 

 in a single year. It will 

 keep for weeks after cut- 

 ting. Greenhouse peren- 

 nial. Pkt., 10 seeds, 9

 many catalogs, hut yours being from a woman I 

 thought I would try your seed, and because 

 it seemed so reasonable.

Hrabis Hlpina. 



A very hardy perennial, specially prized because it 

 comes so early in the spring, its bright silvery green 

 foliage being covered by a sheet of white flowers al- 

 most as soon as the snow disappears. It is useful 

 also for edgings, as the plant is low growing, and the 

 silvery green leaves give a pleasing effect, even when 

 it is not in bloom. Pkt., 3 cts. 



Anemone Goronaria 



(St. Brigid's Poppy.) 



A hardy perennial, producing large brilliant flow- 

 ers, single', semi-double and double, maroon, scarlet, 

 pink, lilac and purple, Pkt.. t± cts.
