NOVELTIES 
AND 
PLANTS OF SPECIAL INTEREST. 
Lonicera — Splendid a. 
A new climbing Honeysuckle, brought from Japan by Dr. Hall, and now first 
offered. It is believed to be hardy, of free and luxuriant growth, with fine foliage ; 
flowers of a bright straw-color outside, and pure white within : very fi-ee and frag- 
rant. Judging from a single specimen in flower, it is thought to be a very decided 
acquisition. 
Price, 50 cents ; larger plants, 75 cents. 
Lonicera — Aurea Reticulata. 
This Honeysuckle was also brought from Japan by Dr. Hall, and though for 
three years introduced, yet the supply has not equalled the demand, and it is still 
scai'ce. It is a very free climber, with fragrant white and yellow flowers, its leaves 
being very distinctly variegated with a network of golden veins, which makes it 
very conspicuous. It will require slight winter protection. 
Price, 30 cents. 
Deutzia Crenata — Flore Plena. 
Still another Japan plant, introduced by Dr. Hall. It forms a dwarf shrub, 
with crenulated leaves, and racemes of drooping double flowers, which are white, 
and tinged on the outer surface with deep rose. 
Price for large plants, 75 cents. 
Farfuffium Ziigatum — Vabiegatum. 
A new, variegated plant, from Japan ; much more beautiful than F. Grande, 
its deep-green leaves being more distinctly marked with white, yellow, and purple. 
Price, $3 each. 
Seedling Verbena — Sulphurea Eleoans. 
This is a remarkably fine flower, large, and of great substance ; of a French 
white color, .deeply shaded with sulphur ; truss large. A fine exhibition flower. 
Price, 50 cents. 
Verbena — Boulb de Nieqb. 
• Decidedly the finest white Verbena yet sent out. A good grower, free bloomer, 
and has an extra large flower and truss. 
Price, 25 cents each; $2.50 per dozen.
