Dorado. 
African Marigold.- 
This strain is, without exception, the very finest type of 
this showy Autumn flower, and we do not hesitate to say that 
it is the best yet offered. The flowers are from 3 to 4 inches 
in diameter, most perfectly imbricated, and extremely double. 
The colors run through all shades of yellow, from very light 
primrose to the deepest orange. The proportion of double 
flowers is greater than in any other selection we have seen. 
We can confidently recommend tins superb strain, and, in- 
deed, it would be hard to imagine a more gorgeous and beau- 
tiful display than can be produced by a bed of these excellent 
annuals. Price per packet, 15 cents; four packets, 50 cents. 
Marigold. New Dwarf French “Butterfly.” — 
This is said to be one of the most beautiful in this section of 
annuals, both in form and color. The alternate petals of 
velvet-purple and old-gold being clearly defined over the entire 
plant. Per packet, 1 5 cents ; four packets, 50 cents. 
Marigold “Gold Nugget.”— This is a remarkable 
as well as a charming novelty in the way of Miniature or 
Dwarf Marigolds, flowering most abundantly during the en- 
tire season; the immense blooms are very double, and ot a 
peculiar shade of golden yellow. This variety has, it is said, 
won golden opinions from those who have seen them in 
flower. Per packet, 25 cents ; four packets, 80 cents. 
Phlox Drummondii. — “ Grandiflora Stellata Splendens.” 
The “ Grandiflora Splendens " is generally admitted to be the richest- 
colored and most effective of all the large-flowered Phloxes. This beau- 
tiful novelty combines all the good qualities of the Splendens, but with 
the addition of a clearly defined, pure white star , which contrasts strik- 
ingly with the vivid crimson of the flowers. It is a most charming 
variety , — the brilliancy of a large bed surpassing description. We can 
unhesitatingly say that this new Stellata Splendens” is the brightest 
and most shouy of all Phloxes. Besides being so much more beautiful 
than the old Splendens, it is also a more robust grower, and produces 
more trusses of flowers. A single plant will branch and spread so as to 
cover a space two feet in diameter. The flower trusses are produced so 
freely as to nearly conceal the foliage. Price per packet, 13 cents. 
Phlox Drummondii Alba Flor Pleno. — This is the first 
REALLY DOUBLE 
Phlox ever of- 
fered, and may be 
considered as an 
introduction of 
great importance, 
as it will be the 
progenitor of a 
new class of this 
popular and showy annual. It is claimed by the producer that 
it will give about sixty per cent, of charming double pure white 
flowers from seed. This Phlox is an American production, and 
is conscientiously recommended by those who have personally 
inspected the plants in bloom where they were grown. Fifteen 
cents per packet; four packets, 50 cents.

The blooms are more than 70 per cent, double, and of the rich- ___ _ ... ... ... 
est hues, all colors mixed, seed of superior quality. This is not l ,llox Drummondii Alim Flor IM.no.

superior; the flowers are also of extra large size. Price per packet, 15 cents; four packets, 50 cents.
