SWEET SULTANS. (Centaurea Moschata.) 
Undoubtedly the finest of all Centaureas for cut 
flower purposes. The beautiful sweet-scented, 
artistic-shaped flowers are borne on long, strong 
stems, and when cut will stand for several days 
in good condition. It is best, in this latitude, to 
sow very early in the spring, so that they may 
perfect their 'flowers before very hot weather 
comes. 
473 Americana (Basket Flower). A splen¬ 
did native variety, 3 ft. high, bearing 
immense thistle-like blooms of a rosy- 
lavender color. Very showy in the mixed 
border and splendid for cutting. % oz.

SWEET WILLIAM. (Dianthus Barbatus.) 
(Bartnelke.) 
Attractive, free-flowering hardy perennials usu¬ 
ally classed as Dianthus with China Pinks, but 
are different from them in not blooming until the 
second year. In beds and borders they will pro¬ 
duce a splendid effect in their rich, velvety flow¬ 
ers of many colors. They are of easy culture and 
profuse bloomers, appearing so early in the sea¬ 
son that they fully repay for time and effort 
spent upon them. It is much better to raise new, 
vigorous young plants from seed every season 
than to divide the old plants.

Hardy perennial producing long stalks of gor¬ 
geous flowers that become the most conspicuous 
things in the garden. From seed the roots pro¬ 
duce flowers the second year. Unless protected 
from the severe winter weather, it is advisable 
to dig and store them as Dahlias are.

loy, salmon and crimson.20 
VALERIANA. (Valerian.) 
(Hardy Garden Heliotrope.) 
Showy border plants with large heads of sweet¬ 
ly fragrant flowers of pinkish-white during June 
and July. 
485 Officinalis. Strong heliotrope odor. 3 
to 4 ft..:.10 
VERBENA. (Eisenkraut.) 
This well-known and popular annual of a low 
procumbent habit is very desirable for massing in 
beds, for borders, wundow 7 boxes and hanging 
baskets. Large clusters of brilliant flowers are 
borne in profusion from the early summer until 
frost. The shades run from snow-white to deep 
purple, including eyed-sorts and striped varieties. 
They lend themselves readily for bouquets. Sown 
in the open in May, the seed will produce flower¬ 
ing plants by August, but the season may well be 
prolonged by starting indoors and transplanting 
after danger of frost is over. Soak the seed before 
planting. A light turfy loam is best. The mam¬ 
moth-flowering strain we offer has trusses and in¬ 
dividual flowers of the largest size.
