solid wreath of bloom both summer and winter. In the 
garden its beauty surpasses everything. The flowers 
are intense scarlet, tipped with yellow, and borne by 
the thousand. 10 cts. 
HARDY CHINESE MATRIMONY VINE. 
The old-fashioned Matrimony Vine was a general 
favorite more than fifty years ago, but in beauty of 
flower, fruit and foliage it cannot compare with this 
superb variety. It is a most vigorous, hardy climbing 
plant when trained to an arbor, fastened to a fence, 
attached to a tree, to the side of a house, the pillars of 
a piazza, or in any location where a hardy, vigorous 
climber is desired. 10 cts.

doubt become one of our most useful plants for fes- 
tooning work, such as drooping from hanging baskets, 
vases, fancy pots, etc., its graceful, rapid growth ren- 
dering it unequaled for this purpose. Doubtless it 
will also be largely used in cemeteries, as it is entirely 
hardy and, we think, more ornamental than almost

ORANGE. 
Otaheite. A dwarf Orange, which grows, blooms 
and fruits freely in pots, even when only a foot or two 
high. The fruit is about one-half the size of ordinary 
Oranges, and very sweet and delicious. The blossoms 
are produced in great abundance, and are delicate and 
beautiful in color, and rich in perfume. The plant 
blooms most freely during winter, though it is likely to 
bloom at any and all times. With one or two pots of 
it any one can raise an abundance of delicate and # 
fragrant Orange blossoms. We supply strong plants, 
ready to bloom and fruit at once, at 35 cts.; smaller 
plants, 10, 15 and 25 cts.

Few plants will give more satisfaction than this, as 
it is a perpetual bloomer in every sense of the word. 
It is in full bloom every day in the year, when grown 
in a pot of good soil and with ordinary care. It grows 
as freely as a geranium in any situation, and is a 
shrubby plant, like a geranium or fuchsia, without 
bulbs, in which respect it differs from other Oxalises. 
It grows 12 to 18 inches in height, branching freely, 
and is covered at all times with clusters of bright 
golden, star-shaped flowers, which do not close at 
night, as in other sorts of Oxalis. 10 cts. £
