 ful for summer bedding. Pkt. 25 cts. 



HIBISCUS. MANIHOT 



This strikingly beautiful decorative plant at- 

 tains a height of about 4 ft., producing flowers 

 fully 4 in. in diameter, their color being a soft 

 clear sulphur- yellow, with a conspicuous maroon 

 blotch at the base of each petal. They are only 

 ephemeral, but are borne in large numbers and 

 quick succession, and make a splendid display 

 for a long time. In habit the plant resembles the 

 ricinus, with deep green leaves, which render it 

 very ornamental even when not in flower. It is 

 very effective in pots for greenhouse decoration, 

 or makes splendid specimens in beds or borders. 

 Although a perennial, we advise the treatment 

 of a half-hardy annual. Pkt. 50 cts.
