l>Jew Giant Sweet Sultan 



(Centaurea Imperialis) 



This new Centaurea represents the best that has been produced in these 

 beautiful summer-blooming plants. The bushes are about 4 feet high, and 

 are covered with large beautiful tloweis of the form and fragrance of Cen- 

 taurea Margaret. The flowers will keep for over a week in water, if cut 

 just when they are about to open. It is of easiest culture. If a package 

 is sown every two or three weeks until July, a constant succession of 

 bloom can be had throughout the whole summer and fall. This is one of 

 the best of the hardy cut-flowers, and they are forced very extensively un- 

 der glass by florists.
