Calceolaria hybrida, 

 Boddington's Per- 

 fection 



The herbaceous Calceolaria 

 is an easily cultivated plant. 

 So long as frost is excluded 

 from the plants in winter they 

 are perfectly safe, and to at- 

 tempt to hasten growth at any 

 time is a failure. July is the 

 best month for sowingthe seed. 

 The great advance made in 

 the habit of the strains offered is remarkable, whilst in the colors 

 there is a marked improvement. Saved by England's most famous 

 specialists. Monster flowers of rich and varied colors, including spot- 

 ted, laced, blotched and self-colored varieties. Hpkt. 60 cts., pkt. $1.

Boddington's Giant Antirrbinums 



MYOSOTIS (Forget-Me-Not) 



BODDINGTON'S POT. Forget-me-nots are delightful subjects 

 for flowering indoors at Christmas time, and as they are every- 

 where welcome the practice of growing plants in pots is rapidly 

 increasing. Sown in July and potted on, the strain we offer pro- 

 duces fine free-growing specimen plants for Christmas. Pkt. 50 

 cts., 3 pkts. for $1.25. 

 RUTH FISCHER. This is indeed a grand novelty. Compact 

 bushes, 12 inches in diameter, and literally covered with sprays of 

 beautiful, heavenly blue Forget-me-not flowers. The individual 

 spray is composed of from six to ten blooms, which are giants 



compared to the well-known 

 flower. For edging in bor- 

 ders, or for a pot plant, no 

 finer blue flower has ever 

 been in existence. This va- 

 riety is absolutely hardy, 

 and, with little protection, 

 will survive the most severe 

 winters. Pkt. 35 cts., 3for$i.

BODDINGTON'S 

 MATCHLESS 

 CINERARIAS 



In the culture of the Cinera- 

 ria the one mistake so often 

 made is that of sowing the 

 seed too soon. The plants 

 thus raised, more often than 

 not, make a rank growth ; this 

 is not in any sense desirable. 

 By sowing in Ma)- and June, 

 plants large enough for all 

 decorative purposes can be 

 had. In after-treatment the 

 aim should be to secure as 

 hard a growth as possible. 

 Sturdy plants with leaves of 

 medium size are best. 

 Boddington's Matchless Mixed. A combination of the three 

 most famous English strains, which can be recommended to those 

 wishing to grow the best Tall, Kpkt. 60 cts., pkt. Si; Dwarf, 

 ■/2pkt. 60 cts., pkt. $1.

 narrow rolled petals radiating from a small center. An agreeable 

 variation from the full florists' flower, and the strain has been 

 much admired. Kpkt. 60 cts., pkt. Si. 

 STELLATA (Star-flowering Cineraria). Tall-growing; excellent as 

 a single specimen for table decoration, or for grouping with splen- 

 did effect in corridors and conservatories. 54pkt. 60 cts.,
