WINTER-FLOWERING (CHRISTMAS) SPENCER SWEET PEAS 
A valuable race of early-flowering Sweet Peas which, from seed sown in August and September in pots, will 
give an abundance of bloom under glass from Christmas onward. All of them are of finest Spencer form. While 
mostly used for forcing in greenhouses, they are also valuable for outside planting, as they bloom much earlier 
than the regular sorts. pj^^.

Annual Mixed. In appearance and habit the same as the perennial varieties. They bloom profiisely from 
July until frost, from seed sown in early spring, and produce large flower-heads in the greatest variety of 
colors. Plants live over winter, and will bloom for years. Pkt. 15 cts., }4oz. 60 cts. 
MAIVIIVIOTH VERBENAS 
Verbenas raised from seed are much more vigorous and free-flowcr- 
ing than if grown from cuttings. Sow in the greenhouse or coldfraine 
in March, and transplant to the outdoor beds in May. They will 
bloom abundantly all through the summer and autumn. Growing 
low, and spreading, the plants intertwine and form a dense carjjet 
of green foliage which makes a charming background for the brilliantly 
colored flowers. In rich soil, a single plant will cover a space 1 to 
2 feet in diameter, and furnish a profusion of flowers. The flower- 
heads are very large, on fairly long stems, and very showy. Cut the 
flowers as soon as faded, and the plants will bloom much more freely. 
Our strains are carefully selected, and greatly improved, producing 
flower-trusses of exceptional size.

Verbena, chiefly cultivated for its evergreen, fragrant leaves. The 
plants grow about 3 feet high, and are most successfully raised in pots; 
can be set out in the garden during the summer. The young tender 
sprays are useful for coml^ining with other flowers in bouquets. Pkt. 25('. 
TAGETES 
Signata pumila, Golden Ring. A pretty little Marigold, form- 
ing a compact round bush, with slender fernlike foliage and an 
abundance of dainty single golden flowers. An elegant plant for the 
border. 1 ft. Pkt. 15 cts. 
TORENIA 
Torenias are very pretty free-flowering plants, with small orchid- 
like blossoms beautifully marked and blotched, and borne in greatest 
profusion. The plants form neat little bushes about 10 inches in 
height, and if seeds are sown in the greenhouse or frame in February 
and March, they commence to bloom in June, and continue till frost. 
They succeed best in a moist shady border, and are excellent for 
baskets or vases. Also splendid for pots.

blotches and a bright yellow throat. Pkt. 25 cts.
