 SUPfiRBA. There is 

 nothing that can equal 

 this pretty little annual 

 plant for borders, 

 groups and pot culture, 

 and I recommend it 

 for use where a low 

 flowering hedge is de- 

 sired, as being all that 

 can be expected. The 

 plants form dense 

 bushes, 18 Inches high, 

 which are covered the ^ 

 entire season with their ">■ 

 beautiful flowers in all 

 shades of orange and 

 yellow to the darkest 

 velvety brown. 



Pactet, 10 cents.

 One of the most dssir- 

 ab!e of o'lr garden flow- 

 ers, varying from clear 

 yellow to deep rich 

 brown, the two colors 

 often being beautifully 

 contrasted in the same 

 blossom. They are 

 borne on long graceful 

 stems, and are very de-

 purposes: 24 in. high.
