 seven different single varieties, and also a new double dark purple variety, will be found 011 page 85 of this cat- 

 alogue. The seeds are c >llected for us expressly from the celebrated collection in the German Imperial Gar- 

 dens in Berlin. The plants will flower in twelve months from time of sowing the seed 



Heucb*ra sapguirjea. 



One of the finest hardy perennials of recent introduction, and recommended as an excellent plant for fur- 

 nishing cut-flowers. It is allied to the Saxifragas, and is of a neat, bushy habit ; the flowers are of a rich, bright 

 crimson color, the leaves light green and slightly hairy. The graceful flower-spikes are excellent for bou- 

 quets. Per packet, 25 cents. 



Petunia, California Large-flowered Hybrid. 



This new strain of single Petunia is remarkable in many respects. The flowers are extremely deep-t hroated 

 and very large, some of them measuring five inches in diameter. The colors are varied, many of them intense, 

 and some of them in combinations quite new in Petunias ; some specimens are exquisitely pencilled, and others 

 are self-colored and beautifully fringed. The seed we offer is from plants selected for excellence in size, form, 

 fringe and marking. Per packet, 25 cents.
