foliage is very beautiful ; in fact, if they did not bloom 
at all they would still be worthy of culture on account 
of their elegant leaves. They make a 
splendid show in the open ground during 
summer. Our collection includes those 
of marked beauty. 
ALTERNANTHERA. 
Beautiful dwarf plants of compact habit, growing 
about 6 inches high, and admirably adapted lor edg- 
ings to flower beds or ribbon lines, their beautifully 
variegated foliage of crimson, purple, yellow, pink 
and green forming rich masses of color ; always at- 
tractive and highly ornamental. These are the four 
best sorts. 5 cts. each, 50 cts. per doz., $3 per 100. 
Aurea nana. Bright golden yellow, holding its 
color well the entire season. 
Paronych.oid.es major. Crimson, scarlet and 
pink ; its gorgeous coloring gives it the name of Rain- 
bow Plant. This and Aurea nana are the most used 
for ribbon lines and massing. 
Spathulata. Leaves tinted carmine and green. 
Versicolor. Foliage ovate, olive, crimson and 
chocolate; when used for edgings it must be fre- 
quently sheared ; the young tips will then assume 
most brilliant hues. 
AMARYLLIS. 
Johnsonii. One of the most gorgeous bulbous 
plants grown. We have seen specimens of a few years’ 
growth that completely filled a window. Nothing is 
more showy than this grand plant during late winter 
or early spring. It bears large flowers of intense crim- 
son, with delicate white feathering down to the center 
of each petal. 50 cts. 
Equestre. One of the most beautiful species of 
Amaryllis in cultivation, of the easiest management 
and invaluable as a winter bloomer, flowering very 
soon after the bulbs are potted. The flowers open out 
very flat, and are nodding, instead of being in the form 
of most Amaryllis. Flowers 5 or more inches across, 
bright, sparkling, orange-red, with a most beautiful 
green and white star in the center. We know of no 
bulb so absolutely sure to bloom and please customers. 
Large bulbs, 15 cts. each, 3 for 40 cts.
