CHAMELEON NASTURTIUM. 



This is certainly a novelty that will be appreciated by 

 all lovers of the beantifal and carious. Imagine a large 

 plant of the Dwarf Nasturtium covered with flowers of 

 different colors, such as pale yellow, brilliant crimson 

 bright red, maroon — some striped, some spotted— all 

 on one plant. It is a glorious sight and one that will 

 attract general attention. Seed, per packet, 10 cts. 



NEW EARLY-FLOW£RSf^G 



ORANGE-YELLOW COSMOS. 



An entirely new departure in color and in habit ! 

 When it is stated by the originator that the plant 

 is in full bloom on May 25th acd that the flowers 

 (which we have seen) are of a BRIGHT ORANGE- 

 YELLOW and of large size, the value of Ihis great 

 novelty can scarcely be estimated. It will revo- 

 lutionize the cultivation of the old Cosmos, to 

 which objection has been made owing to their late 

 blooming. The very distinctive new color, scarcely 

 found in any other flower, should also prove attrac- 

 tive The foliage is more substantial and more 

 lastiog and the plant certainly more floriferoos 

 than the ordinary Cosmos ; and the plant, so to 

 covers itself with flowers. Per pkt., 10 cts. 



I80T0MA LONQIFOLIA. 



CALLA LILIES. 



VERY ORNAMENTAL AND FREE-FLOWERING. 



WHITE each, 10 cts.; per doz., 75 cts. 



BLACK " 10 " " 75 " 



YELLOW " 25 " " ^2.50. 



ISOTOMA LONGIFLORUM AXILLARIS. 



"BLUE STARS." 



A most beautiful plant for the garden as well as for pot cul- 

 ture and one which will give the greatest satisfaction, inasmuch 

 as it begics to bloom in four to six weeks after sowing the seed. 

 The flowers are borne on rather long stems and are of a deli ate 

 ' ' azure blue. ' ' Frequently white ones appear among the seed- 

 lings, producing a lively aud pleasing contrast. 



It is one of those old, forgotten plants never seen in gardens 

 nowadays and that we are glad to reintroduce feeling sure that 

 it will be appreciated. Per packet, 10 cts.
