GLOXINIA ERECTA SUPERBISSIMA 



Having during the past season been requested to secure some specially fine Gloxinias 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. 35 cts. each, $3.50 per doz., $26 per 100. 



DUKE OF YORK. Large scarlet Gloxinia 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 

 Crassifolia habit. An admirable companion to Her Majesty. 

 GOLIATH. Violet and white, very distinct. 



BODDINGTON'S IDEAL PRIZE GIANT MIXED. Great 



variety of superb colors. 

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



throat (lotted with dark red. 

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



being edited with a broad band of white. A most striking and 



lovely variety. 



SPOTTED Hybrids, whenever exhibited, they create intense 

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

 add a special charm to the flowers. 



SUTTON'S WHITE. Large self, pure white.
