WARVELOF PERU. Variegated Leaved. 



(Four O'clock.) 



► This new variety makes a very ornamental plant when planted 

 alone or in rows.' The leaves and flowers are very beautifully 

 variegated— white, creamy white and green. Many plants cost- 

 ing large sums of money do not compare in beauty and variety 

 with this plant. 



Pkt., 40 seeds, 6c.; oz., 20c. 



MARVEL OF PERU, 

 4c.: oz., 15c. 



MIXED, all colors. Pkt., 40 seeds, 



SWEET SCENTED FOUR O'CLOCK (Longiflora)— 



Long tubular sweet scented flowers. White and purple. 

 Pkt, 40 seeds, 5c.; oz., iSc. 



MULT I FLORA— Very distinct Four O'clock. Produces clus- 

 ters or bouquets of 9 to 12 large violet flowers. Perfectly hardy. 

 Pkt, 30 seeds, 6c. 



MARVEL OF PERU (Mirabllis)— The improved Four 

 O'clock is one of our most desirable plants. It grows in any soil 

 and under any treatment. Planted like peas, they soon make a 

 row of plants smothered with flowers, which Jiave the strange 

 habit of remaining closed until exactly 4 o'clock, when they 

 burst out in their glory. For planting where other flowers will 

 not grow, and ease of cultivation, nothing equals them. The 

 "oots are hardy and perennial, growing from year to year. They 

 ian also be wintered in the cellar. 



TRAILING FUCHSIA PROCUMBENS. 



This is not only curious, but one of the very best trail- 

 ing plants we have for house, basket, vase, or window. 

 Foliage small and thick. Flowers curious in shape; 

 color red, with blue anthers. Mixed with the blooms 

 in gre£\t quantities, appear bright red berries a little 

 larger than cherries, which stay on for nearly six 

 months. Pkt., 15 seeds, H)c.
