Coleus, Fancy. 
This beautiful family of ornamental 
foliage plants has been steadily increas- 
ing in beauty and diversity of color for a 
few years past, until now it seems as if 
there was no degree of shading, blending, 
or contrasting of color that may not be 
found in them. They are of the easiest 
culture, either in pots or bedded out, and 
so cheap as to be within the reach of all. 
We have a fine collection of the handsom- 
est varieties in cultivation.
