SALVIA (Scarlet Sage) 

 Hardy Annual 



These salTlas will delight every one by the profusion and distinctness 

 of their flowers during the whole summer until frost or as pot plants 

 during the winter. The seed is saved from plants at our Panrnure Seed 

 Garden, so we can positively recommend the strains as the best that 

 can be had. 



1722 Salvia, Drooping Spikes. 



1722 DROOPI1VG SPIKES. The very best scarlet sage obtainable. 

 The flowers of this magnificent scarlet sage are produced so abundant- 

 ly as to bend the branches and give them a leaning habit, hence the 

 name of Drooping Spikes. It is a magnificent bloomer, bearing three 

 times as many flowers as the ordinary scarlet sage; very desirable for 

 lawn or garden whether planted in solid beds or as borders. 



Packet, 10 cents; % ounce, 50 cents; % ounce, 80 cents. 



1723 DWARF BOSPISE. One of the finest for bedding. Com- 

 pact, oval bushes, 2 feet in height, with long spikes of scarlet flowers 

 standing clear above the loliage, which completely cover the plant. A 

 very popular variety for beds and borders where a dwarl'er red variety 

 than Drooping Spikes is required. Very extensively grown. 



Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 40 cents; ounce, 75 cents. 



1727 Salvia, Farinacea. 1730 Salvia, Liliputana. 



1727 FARlSACEAi (The Silver Sage.) Tall silver lavender or blue 

 spikes rise in great numbers above the foliage. A handsome bedding 

 plant for groups, borders or massing. With a slight covering during the 

 winter, this variety is hardy in many localities, but it is best to treat it 

 as an annual. Seed sown in the open ground in May will bloom from 

 July until frost. The color of the flowers attracts attention.

 by some the Pygmy Scarlet Sage, for the plant only grows about 10 

 inches high. The plant is compact and bears very early and profusely

 foliage. It makes a beautiful pot plant, but also may be used in beds 

 and borders; a first class variety in every way.
