EXACUM AFFINE 
Provides a most useful pot plant. Numerous small light mauve flowers with 
golden yellow stamens contrast wonderfully with the light green leaves. Seed 
sown January or February flower in June and continue uninterruptedly until 
the autumn. To obtain the best results, plant two plants in each pot. Rich 
soil of leaf mould and turfy loam in equal parts with some sand added is 
most suitable for its cultivation, which from the end of March must be carried 
out either in a cold frame or a well ventilated greenhouse with the minimum 
of shade. Exacum Affine is a fragrant and charming indoor plant. As a cheap 
market plant, it is worthy of notice. Tr. Pkt. 50c

HOLLYHOCK—DOUBLE “IMPERATOR” 
The coloring includes various tints of great beauty, such as cerise-salmon with 
center of cream reflecting rose; delicate pink with center of rose flushed yellow; 
light yellow flushed rose with canary yellow center; but there are many other 
charming combinations of different tints. The plant branches from the base, 
forming a majestic clump, and the lateral stems can be utilized in vases for 
decorative purposes. This splendid new Hollyhock can be relied on to come 
quite 80 per cent true from seed. Tr. Pkt.50c Oz. $1.75

diameter) are produced liberally on long stems by 
the bushy plants 2 /i feet high They flower from 
June until the autumn and if sown in March blooms 
will appear the same year; an autumn sowing pro¬ 
duces abundantly flowering plants next summer.

be counted on. Burgundy Gaillardia is most effec¬ 
tive both in the perennial borders and when cut.

Gaillardia family. Tr. Pkt.35c

ruary will flower at the end of June and continue until the autumn. The

light and dark blue corollas. Raising these Fuchsias from seed gives very 
good results and is to be highly recommended. Tr. Pkt. 50c 
MECONOPSIS BETONICIFOLIA “BAILEYI”

Poppy, brought over from Tibet by Captain Kingdom Ward, throws up from 
its root-stock half a dozen leafy stems, 3 to 5 ft. high, well furnished with broad 
seagreen leaves and bearing freely at their heads large 4-petalled blooms of a 
glorious sky-blue color, the effect of which is enhanced by a central zone of 
golden-yellow anthers. This superb plant has been accorded by the Royal Horti¬ 
cultural Society a First Class Certificate and an Award of Merit. It is hardy
