BOUGAINVILLEA Lateritia 
Brick red. One of the strongest and largest 
growers of all Bougainvilleas. Free bloomer, very 
beautiful and spectacular on the side or roof of 
a building. Gallon containers, $1.00; large spe¬ 
cimens, $2.50 up. 
BOUGAINVILLEA Praetoriensis 
A new type originating in Cuba and one of the 
finest novelties in many years. Bracts are a 
beautiful bronzy orange and with the sun shin¬ 
ing through them give the effect of molten gold. 
An especially profuse bloomer and a rare and 
beautiful thing. Should be extensively planted. 
Quite new. Highly recommended. Gallon con¬ 
tainers, $2.50; large specimens, $5.00 up. 
BOUGAINVILLEA Braziliensis 
The well-known rosy-purple species, extremely 
vigorous grower and a showy and prolific bloomer. 
Many people object to this plant if it is in too 
close proximity to flowers of a red or scarlet 
shade. It is, notwithstanding, a very spectacular 
and brilliant Bougainvillea. $.50 up. 
BOUGAINVILLEA Rosea 
New hybrid from Australia. Enormous trusses of 
deep rosy pink bracts. Cannot be surpassed when 
it is in full bloom. A very fine introduction. One

mens, $3.50 up.

good-sized pink trumpet-shaped flowers. Likes

all the Bignoniaceous group. Blooms eight 
months of the year with us. Large clusters 
of trumpet-shaped flowers, purple when they 
first open, shading to lavender, handsome fol¬ 
iage, very free flowering and delightfully frag¬ 
rant. No one who has esteem for climbing 
plants should be without this. Gallon con¬ 
tainers, $1.00; large specimens, $3.50 up.

sy green foliage, large pure yellow flowers of

mens, $3.50 up.

colored flowers in clusters about four inches to
