JOHN LEWIS CHILDS, FLORAL PARK, N. Y. 
Guilds’ DWarf EVer- 
blooipipg Gada. 
This is of a dwarf habit, and does not 
grow tall and scraggly like the old variety, 
out is strong and compact, vyith a great 
abundance of lustrous dark green foliage. 
It is a true everbloomer, its flowers appear¬ 
ing in great abundance both summer and 
winter when grown in pots, or it will bloom 
profusely all summer long in open ground, 
and being potted in September will con¬ 
tinue blooming without intermission all 
winter. The same plant will grow and 
bloom for years without once ceasing, an* 
the quantity of bloom which a good plant 
will produce is astonishing. It is esti¬ 
mated that six plants of the old sort will 
not produce so many flowers in the course 
of a year as will one plant of this new 
dwarf variety. A large plant is hardly ever 
without one or more flowers, and its dwarf, 
compact habit makes it a much more de¬ 
sirable pot plant than the old variety. Its 
flowers are of large size and snowy*white 
in color. Price—First size, extra large, 25c. 
each, 3 for 60c.; second size, 15c. each.

SWeet-Scepted 
Galia, Fragraps, 
Probably the greatest novelty of the 
year. It is identical with Childs’ Dwarf 
Everblooming, possessing the additional 
charm of delicious fragrance. This new 
Cal la was originated by Luther Burbank, 
of Cal., who speaks of it thus: “The plants 
are of medium size, compact in growth 
and bloom profusely. It has not only a 
most ch.arming flower, produced in a pro¬ 
fusion never before surpassed, but also 
with a genuine, sweet, lasting fragrance 
all its own, but similar to the fragrance of 
Vlolets or Lilies.” 75c. each. 
Galla, brittle Qcip. 
. A-jerfeot miniature Calls, growing8or 
Ls inches high, and producing perpetually 
very large snow-white blossoms. It is in 
truth a perfect little Gem. 16c. each. 
California Giant Calla. 
Large-flowering Callas. which come 
from California., are now extensively 
grown and very popular. The bulbs are of 
large size, start quickly, and are soon in 
bloom. 20c. each ; 3 for 50c. 
One each of the 5 Callas for $1.25.
