GLOXINIA ERECTA SUPERBISSIMA 



Having during the past season been reiiuested to secure some specially fine (ilo.xiiiias for exhibition purposes, we have made arrange- 

 ments with a noted Gloxinia specialist in England to reserve for us some of the most distinct types. The bulbs are not so large as the 

 Named X'arieties, but this is a characteristic of most Erecta superbissima varieties. 36 cts. each, S3. 50 per doz., $26 per 100. 



DUKE OF YORK. Lar-e scarlet (iloxinia with deep white edge 

 to each petal. A magnificent flower. 



HER MAJESTY. This exquisite Gloxinia is still unsurpassed by 

 any other white variety. The flowers are as pure as newly fallen 

 snow, and are borne on short stems, just clear of the elegantly re- 

 curved foliage. 



READING SCARLET. In color this is the most brilliant Gloxinia 

 in existence, being an intense glowing scarlet variety of the true 



BODDINGTON'S IDEAL PRIZE GIANT MIXED. Great 



variety of superb colors. 

 CYCLOPS. X'elvety carmine, shading to a broad white border, 



throat dolled with dark red. 

 DUCHESS OF YORK. Flowers of a rich dark blue, each petal 



being t(l;;ed with a broad band of white. A most striking and 



lovelv variety. 



SPOTTED HYBRIDS. Whenever exhibited, they create intense 

 interest. The tielicate markings, in an infinite variety of forms, 

 add a special charm to the flowers. 



Crassifolia habit. An admirable companion to Her Majesty.
