Gloxinia Grandiflora. 



Popular greenhouse and conservatory plants of 

 dwarf habit and profuse flowering. The handsome, 

 bell-shaped flowers, are of gorgeously brilliant col- 

 ors, curiously spotted and mottled, ranging from 

 darkest, richest shades of crimson, all through dif- 

 ferent shades of red to pure white, and some appear 

 in blue, making as showy a plant as one can have in 

 the window. I can hardy imagine anything more 

 beautiful than well-grown plants of Gloxinia— except 

 more of them. I offer the choicest mixture of French 

 Hybrids of the Grandiflora type. Pkt., 75 seeds, 7c. 



Lavatera. 



Old fashioned annuals that deserve to be restored 

 to more general favor. The blossoms are large and 

 cup-shaped, pure white or delicate pink. If the fol- 

 iage is plucked out and blossoms massed, they are 

 tine for the vase or corsage. Pkt., 3 Cts. 



If you have an odd cor- 

 ner or an old brush heap, 

 trail the gourd vine over it . 

 Its fruit has many uses, 

 but if for no other pur- 

 pose raise it for the little 

 ones. They much enjoy 

 the gaily striped, odd shap- 

 ed fruits. This mixture 

 will be sure to please, as 

 it is made up of many 

 named varieties, including 

 dipper, striped, pear-shap- 

 ed, ostrich egg, apple, or- 

 ange, turban, or Japanese 

 Ked, and dishcloth gourds. 

 It will give both large and 

 small sizes and an innum- 

 erable variety of shapes.

Gypsophila Paniculata. , 

 4i angel's Breath." < 



No lady who delights to adorn her rooms with beauti- 

 ful flowers should be without the Gypsophila. It is ex- 

 tensively used by all who do any decorating to mix with 

 other and coarser flowers. Its mist-like sprays set off a 

 bouquet as dainty lace does a lady's dress. Hardy per- 

 ennial; once established, vou will alwavs have it.
