MISS EMMA V. WHITE 



eENTAUREA IMPERIHLIS, Americana Alba. 



You should not fail to try this beautiful new Centaurea. It is a hybrid of the 

 Centaurea Moschata (Sweet Sultan), and Centaurea Marguerite, the plants hav- 

 ing the vigor of the former and the blossoms, the sweet oder of the latter, al- 

 though much larger. A leading Florists' Journal says of it: "It is one of the 

 most important introductions of the present decade. The plant is very vigor- 

 ous, »>asy to grow and literally covered with enormous white flowers, fully double 

 tin' size of Centaurea Marguerite. The 6tems are long enough to satisfy the 

 most exacting 'Belle of New York. 111 It cannot be surpassed for cutting, lasting 

 two or three weeks in water. Easy cultivation and a long duration of bloom 

 make a garden plant unsurpassed by any other annual. Pkt., 5 Cts. 



Centaurea I mperialis. Mixed. White, Lavender and Yellow. Pkt. 5c 



eerostium Tomentosum 

 (Snow in Summer). 



A handsome, dwarf foliage plant, with silvery white, 

 variegated leaves, used largely as an edging plant. It is 

 very effective as a border for a Coleus bed, or when 

 massed by itself, and is especially appropriate for ceme- 

 tery use. * Flowers white. Hardy perennial. Pkt., 4 cts. 



Centaurea Marguerite. 



On account of its beauty and fragrance this Centaurea 

 has established itself in popular favor, and it will not be 

 displaced by its more imposing sister, Americana Alba. 

 Flowers pure white and size of large carnations. Pkt. 5c.
