neath. It was described and illusti’ated in the

SCABIOSA 
CAUCASICA 
PERFECTA. 
This oliarminjf new variety is a considerable 
improvement on the well-known Perennial Cau- 
casioan Scabious, for instead of being furnished 
with one row of guard petals, the flowers develop 
three or four rows, giving the blossoms a semi- 
doublo chara(iter, while the colour varies from 
light to dark cierulean blue. The blooms are 
borne on long stiff stalks, so are admirably 
adaijted for cutting piu'poses. Is. per packet.

PANSY, ‘ MASTERPIECE.” 
(NEW GIANT CURLED PANSY.) 
Quite a new type of Pansy, the petals of the 
flowers being curled or frilled in a remarkable 
manner, giving the blossoms a very f ull and 
massive appearance. The flowers are very large, 
and the colours most rich and varied, with many 
new shades hitherto not seen in Pansies. This 
new type is so attractive that it cannot fail to be 
recognised as a chunnhig and desirable addition 
to these popular flowers. 1«. per packet.
