Gay Calliopsis 
One of the best annuals for beds or borders, producing attrac¬ 
tive and graceful flowers on long stems which are most effec¬ 
tive and artistic for decoration. They commence blooming early 
and continue in profusion until early fall. Seeds are usually 
sown outdoors where they are to bloom but they can be sown 
inside and transplanted if desired. 
488 DAZZLER. Grows about 12 inches high, a little taller than 
Tom Thumb Beauty, but with a better habit and with blooms 
quite twice the size. These completely cover the plant and 
display a rich maroon-red center, with broad golden yellow 
border, forming a splendid sheet of color which attracts the 
eye from a considerable distance. We can strongly recom¬ 
mend this variety for summer bedding. Fkt., 15c. 
489 THE SULTAN. A splendid new sort with flowers as large 
as those of Dazzler, but of a rich maroon-crimson. For 
bedding it is greatly in advance of its class, the blooms being 
nearly twice the size and of a brighter tint of color. A trial 
will quickly prove its superiority for bedding purposes over 
all other of the deeper colored varieties of Calliopsis. Fkt., 15c.
