Gigantic Etruscan Morning Glories. 



This most wonderfnl and beautiful class of Italian 

 Morning Glories are almost wholly unknown, and I take 

 great pleasure in offering them to my customers. 



They belong to the same class as the Japanese Imperial 

 Morning Glories, but have been subjected to very careful 

 cultivation and close selection in order to have the 

 varieties distinct and fixed. 



The fiowers are very large, petals often frilled and un- 

 dulating, colors very brilliant and striking. 



The foliage is mottled with silvery blotches, also one 

 strain mottled with gold. 



Gigantic Etruscan Mixture includes all different colored 

 leaves, all colors and kinds of flowers. Pkt., 60 seeds, 7c.
