Ease of culture is the first quality 

 that commends the Salpiglossis to all 

 amateur gardeners. It thrives in any 

 good garden soil and in almost any 

 situation, though, like other flowers. 

 it responds readily to good treatment. 

 The New Emperor strain is a very great improvement on the older type in its increased size of flowers, their improved 

 shape and larger variety of colors, and. more than all else, in their singularly beautiful veiuings of gold, Tliese are tlie 

 only flowers, to our knowledge, that sliow a glint of gold in tlieir coloring. Pkt., 150 seeds, 5c.
