This is undoubtedly the most superb strain 
of Pansies ever offered on this coast. The 
plants are of vigorous growth, and are particu- 
larly free flowering. The blossoms are very 
large, and of fine velvety texture, including all 
the richest shades, many of them exquisitely 
blotched, spotted and margined. Pkt. 25c. 
proved to be one of the most free-flowering 
species and especially valuable for pot culture. 
The flowers are of a delicate shade of lilac. 
Seed sown in August produces plants which 
flower throughout the winter months. Pkt. 25c.

plants in California gardens. This superb 
giant strain I am offering produces immense 
flowers of great substance, often 4 or 5 inches 
in diameter, deep-throated and with the edge 
of the petals beautifully ruffled and fringed.

Schizanthus Wisetonensis 
One of the daintiest of annual flowering 
plants and adapted for sowing in beds or bor- 
ders. The seeds germinate quickly and the 
plants flower in a remarkably short time. 
When in bloom the foliage is almost complete- 
ly hidden by the immense number of delicate 
butterfly-like flowers which are white, dotted 
with delicate rose. Makes an admirable pot 
plant for house or conservatory. Pkt. 15c. 
Poppy, King Edward 
A splendid annual poppy, belonging to the 
pasony-flowered class. The plants usually 
grow about 2]/^ feet high, and produce a great 
profusion of large single flowers of deep scar- 
let, shaded with crimson, the gorgeous effect 
being increased by a large black blotch, adorn- 
ing the lower half of each petal. Grown in 
masses it will produce a most brilliant effect 
for many months, and is not only a valuable 
addition to this popular class of poppies, but 
one of the most desirable novelties offered in 
many years. Pkt. 10c.
