Cineraria. 
A wondrously beautiful greenhouse or window plant, and not 
at all hard to grow. Seeds germinate quicklj and easi¬ 
ly, and young plants grow off without any trouble. Keep 
in a shady place over summer, and remove to house in 
fall. Use insecticides to keep free from aphis, and as 
flower buds show give good light. A beautiful plant, the 
large, luxuriant leaves surmounted in late winter and 
spring by immense panicles of magnificent large flow¬ 
ers of tlie most brilliant colors. Nothing could be more 
effective in the window; in fact no flower is more showy 
or effective, and the flowers last in lull glory for two to 
three months. Colors exceedingly rich an •. velvety, 
ranging from crimson-black to pure white, through all 
the shades of crimsons and blues, frequently with large 
white centers or exquisite borders.

Calceolaria. 
Not one in ten of our customers have ever seen a 
Calceolaria in bloom, yet it is one of the handsomest and 
| most striking pot plants we know of. Seeds fine, and 
must be sown with care, but after they are fairly up they 
i grow well, and will bloom the next winter. Each plant 
bears hundred of pocket-like flowers, spotted and marked 
in the most curious manner. Our great show of Calceolar¬ 
ias during the late winter and spring months is one of the 
noted attractions of Floral Park.
