Angel’s Breath, or Gypsophila. 
An annual that should be In every garden, for it 
thrives everywhere, and furnishes the loveliest ma- 
terial for all kinds of bouquets. The tiny little 
flowers are borne in abundance on long, graceful, 
branching stems which lend a most graceful, light 
appearance to any bunch of flowers. Pkt., 300 seeds, 
5 CtS. 
Aquilegia, or Columbine. 
Very handsome, ornamental, hardy perennial 
plants of easy cultivation and bearing in profusion 
large flowers of novel shape and in a great variety 
of colors. Double mixed. Pkt., 300 seeds, 5 cts. 
Ambrosia. 
A hardy annual with long spiral stems, bearing 
an abundance of small, round greenish-yellow buds 
and blossoms which are exceedingly fragrant. It is 
as desirable as the Rose Geranium as a plant with 
fragrant foliage, and for making up into bouquets 
and other floral work. Its long, beautiful, fringy 
spirals of lovely green are unsurpassed. It Is one 
of the easiest plants to grow, and seed may be sown 
early In open ground. Pkt., 400 seeds, 6 cts. 
Crab’s Eye Vine. 
Abrus Precatorius. 
A most beautiful climber, either for 
pot culture or the open ground in 
summer; bears clusters of bright yel- 
low flowers, followed by bunches of 
pods, which, when dry, burst open, 
disclosing brilliant red seeds with 
black eyes, used for making beads 
and ornaments, for which purpose 
they are exceedingly pretty. Pkt., 15 
seeds, 5 ets. 
Chicago, Ills. 
Dear Miss Lippincott : 
Your beautiful little catalogue arrived 
almost the first, and certainly is my favor- 
ite, and inspires me, as usual, with a de- 
sire to purchase and plant all the seeds. 
But knowing the limitations of my soil, 
which is mostly sand, I must refrain. The 
shady place grass seed grew beautifully, 
but the ornamental grass seed I have tried 
two seasons without success. 
NOTICE — If you have never planted a 
small vegetable garden for your own use, 
try it this year. You will find a select list 
of seeds in this catalogue, commencing at 
page 45.
