 will liave an effect on the po]ii\v family equal to that 

 of Dominion in the iris world." Extra strong grower, 

 rain'd of increase. NET, each $5.00 



From Dr. Neeley, of Paulding, Ohio. 



JUNE DELIGHT. Very large bright silvery pink, 

 the color improving with age. This plant is so out-

 Neeley's introductions. Limited stock.
