height of 10 feet by 3 to 4 feet in diameter and 
are richly covered with large, dark green, deeply 
cut leaves, much like those of the fig tree. In 
late summer and all through the autumn months, 
the whole plant is literally covered with brilliant 
orange-scarlet flowers with a degree of brightness 
that neither brush nor words can fully portray or 
describe. The flowers are 3 to 4 inches across 
and can be cut with 2 to 3-foot stems; they last 
a long time in water. 
From seeds sown in the frame in March, plants 
begin to bloom in August; sown outdoors in May, 
plants bloom in September and continue in either 
case until frost. Pkt. 25c; 5 pkts for $1.00 
URSINIA 
“Aurora”. Emerging from their South African 
solitudes, the Ursinias have been rapidly making 
for themselves a place in horticulture. The pret¬ 
ty new form we now offer may be said to occupy 
an intermediate place between U. anethoides and 
U. pulchra, with flowers not unlike those of ane¬ 
thoides. The distinctive charm lies in the broad 
zone of deep crimson red which adorns the cen¬ 
ter of the bright orange corolla, and renders this 
novelty a delightful subject for summer beddj,ngC~~'
