(Glasgow Prize, President Thiers) 

 Celosia cristata nana Dam. 1898 

 Ruby. An absolutely new, distinct 

 and most beautiful color which has 

 struck all of our friends^who had an 

 opportunity of seeing it in our grounds. 

 The plant grows about 12 inches high 

 producing flowers of a perfect shape 

 and of quite a peculiar most lovely 

 crimson color displaying still more its 

 charm under the sunlight. The stalks

0 Celosia p)r. monstrosa (Electro) 

 Dam. 1898. This new and remarkable 

 kind stands between the C. cristata and 

 the C. pyramidalis; its bushy habit is 

 like that of the C. pyramidalis while 

 the flowers and specially those of 

 the main stems arc more like those 

 of the C. cristata. They arc dark 

 red , the leaves dark green spotted 

 more or less with dark red. The 

 plant grows most vigorously to about 

 4 feet in height which makes it 

 invaluable for large groups. Our cut 

 dispenses us from a more detailed
