Magnificent and popular summer- 

 flowering annuals, producing 

 masses of most perfectly formed 

 and brilliantly colored flowers 

 in the greatest profusion. They 

 prefer a rich, sandy soil, and 

 must be kept well watered. 

 Transplanting two or three times 

 has a tendency to dwarf them 

 and make the flowers more 

 double. The collections of 

 Camellia-flowered and Rose- 



See Musa Ensete. 



False Indigo ; beautiful blue. 



Golden yellow flowers ; very fra- 

 grant in the evening. 



Beets having no tubers, but with 

 handsome ornamental foliage 

 of very beautiful, rich colors. 

 Very effective in center of beds, 

 or anywhere in contrast with 

 other plants. 



Fine for growing in pots, being 

 perfect in habit, with very hand- 

 some foliage. 2452 and 2452a 

 are very free flowering and fine 

 for bedding. 



Showy, like the Calliopsis. 



See Cenlaurea Cyanus. 



Ornamental habit and foliage.
