Fairy Rose Seed '^^^^^^ ''Baby Rose." 



CRosa Multiflora nana Perpetua.) 



This Is the true New Hardy Hybrid Perpettial, Ever- 

 Blooming Rose which will surely blossom in sixty days. 

 This variety is entirelj^ new and very expensive, and must 

 not be confounded with seed sold as "Polyantha" or 

 "Multiflora," which is simply "many-flowered," and will 

 not bloom under four to six months, and altogether in- 

 ferior in every way. These roses are a wonderful freak 

 of nature. These sturdy little midgets start to flower in 

 babyhood, two months from seed. They flower on little 

 shoots three inches high. With age the flowers increase 

 in size and number until large trusses of bloom cover the 

 plant from spring until frost, when the flower trusses are 

 closely followed by clusters of bright red hips or seed 

 pods. They are hardy and live from 3^ear to 

 year,'increasing in beauty and perfection each 

 vear. The flowers come double, semi-double, 

 in many colors, white, pink and crimson.

Beanstalk** Vine. 



(Pueraria Thunbergiana.) 



THE FAMOUS CHINESE KUDZU. 

 Watch It Grow! 



Like the magic Bean Vine of the fairy tale, this wondrous new vine, with ordinarv treatment, will grow 

 70 feet in one season, turning everything it covers into leafy loveliness, and filling the air with the fragrance of its 

 large clusters of wistaria-like blossoms. 



In three months this wonderful Chinese vine progresses as much as most vines do in five j'ears. Adaptable to 

 porches, arbors, fences, rockeries, old trees, etc. Perfectly hardy; lasts twenty-five years or more. 



Packet, 15 seeds, 10c. 



Soak the seed in warm water for 6 hours before planting. Start inside in pots or boxes, and transplant outside, 

 where it is wanted to grow, when the plants are 3 or 4 inches high, if the weather is suitable. The enormous 

 growths mentioned by these various authorities of course refer to established plants and not to seeds the first 

 year, although the second year they make enormous growths.
