tal foliage plant with long drooping 
panicles of purplish- red flowers, fre-

lawn. Pkt., 100 seeds, 3 cents. 
AMARANTHUS SPLENDENS,

turn to t he most brilliant colors, pre- 
senting a display that few plants can 
equal. Pkt., lOO seeds, 4 cents. 
Miss Emmn Sieling, Elkhorn, Ills., .Tan. 81, 
1895, writes:— I was very well pleased with the 
Heeds bought of you last year, especially the 
Petunias and Phlox— they were worth the 
money alone. 
Mrs. A. O. Scott, Durbin, N. Dak., April 13, 
1895, writes: — This is the third year I have sent 
to you for seeds, and I am very much pleased 
with the seeds and prices and recommend 
them whenever I have a chunde. 
Mrs. Dave Zigler, Plymouth, Ohio, April 16, 
1895, writes: The seeds I received from you last 
year gave good satisfaction. The Cinerarias 
were beautiful and the question was asked al- 
most daily— where did you get the seed ? I re- 
sponded by showing them your neat and hand- 
som little Catalogue, 
nruuid aipmu, 
ARABIS ALP1NA. 
The pure white iiowers grow so uniform and 
thickly that it gives the effect of a sheet of snow. 
Plants perfectly hardy. The earliest, prettiest 
spring flower. The spreading tufts are densely 
clothed with neat, lively green leaves and covered 
with pure white flowers of the most lovely effect, 
conspicuous in great distance, especially in large 
masses on rockeries or broad edgings for park- 
roads, having the advantage of braving the great- 
est drought, during summer, and always looking 
neat. Pkt., 150 seeds, G cents.
