Cineraria , Hybrid a. 
Oneof the most popular of all greenhouse plants, and what a 
splendid display they make when well grown. I know of no plant 
so easily grown as the Cineraria. The secret of growing well is to 
•grow fast, never allowing them to receive a check, either from 
heing pot bound, dryness of root, or attack of insects; the cooler 
ithey are kept the better. In colors they range from crimson, 
magenta, violet, purple and variegated. Large flowering mixed. 
Pkt., 150 seeds, 8 cts. 
Calliopsis, Lanceolate. (Perennial.) 
Graceful and profuse blooming plant, with large, striking flow- 
ers of a brillant golden yellow, and remains in bloom all sum- 
mer. Its long wiry stems fit it admirably for bouquet making, 
while its golden cloud of blooms, far above the foliago, makes it a 
capital bedder. Pkt. 200 seeds, 4 cts.
