Posticus Ornatus—The great beauty of this new Poeticul 
is admirably represented in the cut here shown, though 
it cannot do justice, of course, to the pure waxy colorsof 
the petals and cup. The flower is large, of the most per¬ 
fect shape, snow-white in color, with a crimson-bordered 
cup. Not only is it the most beautiful Poeticus, but by 
far the most valuable, on account of its extreme earll- 
ness, blooming three weeks before the old sort. For win¬ 
ter blooming in pots it is just exquisite. Nothing finer, 
and bqlpg very cheap it should he freely planted. 4c, 
each ■ -3 Tor 10c.; 13 for 35c.
