parlor or window plant, to cts. 
SWAIN SON A 
GALEGIFOLIA 
Al ba. A most desirable ever- 
blooming plant, with pure white 
flowers, produced in sprays of from 
1 2 to 20 flowers each, the individual 
blooms resembling a sweet pea.

grant and beautiful of the summer- 
flowering bulbs. 5 cts. each, 50 cts. 
per doz.

ets and vases. 5 cts. each, 50 cts.

Swainsona galegifolia. 
VERBENA 
This is one of the most satisfactory 
plants for the South ; a bed of it is a mass 
of bloom the whole summer ; the hotter 
the weather the better it blooms. We 
have a splendid collection of the Mam- 
moth or Large-Flowering varieties, which 
must not be confounded with the com- 
mon Verbenas usually sold. The colors 
range through all the different shades of 
scarlet, crimson, white, blue, pink and 
variegated. 5 cts. each, 50 cts. per doz. 
VIOLETS 
The Violet grows more popular each 
season, and no home should be without a 
few plants. 
California. Single flowers of deepest 
blue or purple, borne on stems 8 to 12 
inches long. Can be worn nicely as a 
corsage bouquet. We grow large quanti- 
ties of this variety for cut-flowers, and 
can rarely supply the demand. 5c. each, 
50c. per doz. ; larger, 10c. each, $1 per doz. 
Princess of Wales. Of French origin, 
and considered the finest single Violet 
grown. It is of the same size as Califor- 
nia, but the color is beautiful rich, soft 
violet-purple ; stems strong, stout, from 
9 to 12 inches long. 10c. each, $1 per doz. 
California Violet.
