Mexicana Hybrida. new 



New Stock " Queen Alexandra " 



Of the same type as Beauty of Nice, with flowers of a delicate, rosy lilac, a tint of 

 comparable beauty, and for cut bloom and bouquet work of high value. A strong 

 ;nter spike about one foot in height is surrounded by numerous side shoots, all 

 irrying beautiful large blossoms. The percentage of doubles is very high. From a 

 immer sowing the plants flower within eight weeks, and sown in February and 

 arch they bloom within four months. Pkt., 25c. 



New Pansy " Rosy Morn " 



The color of this new Giant-Flowered Pansy is a bright purplish crimson margined 

 ith a clear white edge. In early spring the color is very deep and rich ; as the 

 leather grows warmer, the color gradually turns a pleasing rosy carmine and the 

 'Iver edge becomes wider. Flowers large, good substance. Pkt., 25c. 



Early-Flowering Perennial Pinks 



Dianthus plumarius nanus, fl. pi. 



Of easiest culture, these new early-flowering hardy grass or clove Pinks will soon 

 e found in every yard. The plants grow in compact bushes about 12 inches high; are 

 erfectly hardy and produce their flowers fully two weeks earlier than the older 

 'pes. Their freedom of bloom is marvelous ; we have counted as many as 500 open 

 owers and buds on a three year old plant. The colors are rich and vivid and their 

 dor delightful. Plants can be lifted and potted when in full bloom without injury 



Pkt., 15c.; 2 for 25c. 



Salvia Pittieri 



A most beautiful and striking new variety; readily grown from seed, forming in a 

 lort time bushy plants 2 to 2% feet high, bearing innumerable spikes of flowers, each 

 Dike carrying from 120 to ISO blossoms of a dazzling scarlet, which expand in succes- 

 on from July to October. The individual flowers are over an inch long, set in a bronzy 

 llyx. This novelty is likely to prove invaluable for bedding in our climate. 



Pkt., 15c.; 2 for 25c. 



Salvia Splendens, "Fireball" 



Of the many sorts of Salvia this splendid novelty undoubtedly is the finest of all. 

 has larger flowers and is also more free flowering than any oiher kind. It forms a 

 ush of about 15 to 20 inches in height from which spring the broad, long spikes covered 

 ith a great number of flowers of the most fiery scarlet. It is the earliest of all. flowering 

 / the beginningof July and continues without a break until frost. It is easily raised 

 cm seed and comes tiue. Pkt., 15c.; 2 for 25c. 



Wallflower, Annual " Blood Red " 



This is a selected stock of the Annual Wallflower, which, although so wonderfully 

 itly. was a poor yellow. We have ever since been carefully selecting this, and each 

 ;ar getting nearer to a good blood red. and at last we have succeeded. It is also a 

 nd a good /^/forfr^a? color; sown in March; blooms
