 carpet, close on the ground, producing crimson berries in

 ^^ (Cyclamen Persicum Papilio.) 



The new Butterfly Cyclamen. The flowers 

 have finely curled or gracefully waved petals. In 

 color, from pure white to dark red, and also such 

 tints as creamy white, light yellow and greenish 

 yellow. These mostly appear as bordering to 

 other colors, producing most charming effects. 

 The plant flowers profusely and for a long time, 

 and makes a most desirable pot plant for room 

 decoration. Awarded first-class certificate at the 

 Ghent, London, Paris and Antwerp exhibitions.

 rockwork or hanging baskets. Pkt., 100

Tmpatiens Ptatypetala Alba, beautiful 



plant and I highly recommend it. This nov- 

 elty resembles in growth and habit the well-known 

 type with purple flowers ; in each axis of the three 

 upper leaves it bears a large, quite flat-lipped 

 flower, with two broad lobes and a slightly re- 

 curvated spur. The color is pure white, with a 

 purplish carmine eye ; an excellent pot plant for 

 the greenhouse or conservatory. Pkt., 15c.

 a very beautiful new plant. This hardy perennial 

 variety will be found a great acquisition to gar- 

 dens. It forms dense bushes about 4 feet high, 

 completely clothed to the ground with elegant 

 raceme s of snowy-white flott^rs. Pkt., 15c.
