HONEYSUCKLE, Lonicera Heckrottii, A valuable ever-blooming yariety; flowers bright carmine-

Henderson’s Ever-Blooming Honeysuckle, 
Lonicera Hendersoni. Large clusters of yellow trumpet-shaped blooms, chang- 
ing the second day to orange-red on every young twig throughout the entire 
growing season, thus becoming a true ever-bloomer. Both colors, red and 
yellow, show clearly in each cluster as long as it lasts. The plant is a healthy 
grower, with a tendency to climb very high. « It makes a good companion with 
the Chinese Honeysuckle, on account of the great profusion of its brilliant flow- 
ers. The clusters are larger and longer than the ordinary Honeysuckle, are 
borne on longer stalks, hold better, and are valuable for cut flowers. Price,
