Qlea ppagpaps (Fragrant Olive)* 
This is the sweetest flower that blooms, belongs to the 
Olive family and is a perpetual bloomer, never without flow¬ 
ers, either summer or winter, though the plant , may not be 
a foot in height. The flowers are small, creamy white and 
borne in immense clusters. Each individual blossom, 
though no larger than the head of a shawl-pin, has more 
sweetness than the largest and most fragrant Lily. Its fra¬ 
grance is also delicate and charming, really the finest of all 
flowers, and you cannot pass a plant without noticing it. It 
succeeds well in any window. 30e. each; 3 for 70c.

beauty and fragrance it is unrivaled. 20c. each; 3 for 50c. 
Rdssellia—Juncea* 
This plant has long, wiry, graceful stems which grow 
in graceful drooping masses, flowing like hair. On these 
bare stems are borne quantities of long, tubular flowers of 
the most vivid scarlet. It is a novel and beautiful plant, 
suitable either for beds in summer or pot culture. In pots it 
blooms the entire year, especially during the winter and 
early, spring months. The great drooping masses of bloom 
are like a fountain of coral, scarlet and green. It is a valuable 
addition to our list of best plants. Price, 20c. each; 3 for 50c.
