HIBISCUS TRIONUM — Trailing Hollyhock. 
Great ivory-hued cups, violet patched at the 
base, and with golden anthers. The center of 
the plant is an upright, flower-laden spire, but 
the basal branches, floriferous also, trail off in 
half procumbent effect. A quick and handsome 
species of easiest culture. Pkt. 10c. 
MALVA MAURITANIA — Great pyramids of 
splendid bloom all summer long. Large flowers 
of rosy lavender, striped gaily with crimson. 
Always good. Six feet. Pkt. 10c. 
NIEREMBERGIA GRACILIS — A lovely and 
dainty flower, with blossoms like crushed silk, 
palest lavender with violet lines. Many stems, 
to 18 inches, with fern-like foliage. Blooms early 
and late, and withstands drought. Pkt. 15c. 
OENOTHERA RUBRICALYX — An Evening 
Primrose that keeps its flowers open all day long. 
The blossoms are like great golden saucers, but 
each with a brightly painted calyx-tube of after¬ 
glow red. Big, robust, branching plants, to 40 
inches. No flower is easier to handle. Pkt. 10c. 
OXALIS SUNSHINE MIRROR—Another name 
for it, equally fitting, is Cloth of Gold. The 15- 
inch plants are mantled in a glorious profusion 
of little bells that glow like molten gold. Easy, 
and flowers for months. Pkt. 10c. 
PARSONSIA LANCEOLATA—Curiously formed 
flowers in pansy suggestion. The two large up¬ 
per petals are richest maroon, veined with vel¬ 
vety black, but the four lower are brilliant crim¬ 
son. Branching plants to three feet or more, 
blooming excessively early and late. Pkt. 10c. 
PROBOSCIDEA BLEND — Easy annuals with 
gorgeous orchid-like blossoms, carried in loose 
or close spikes above enormous leaves, downy 
or sparkling. Color varies from pink-tinged ivory 
to rich rose, or sometimes pale lilac, but always 
with splashings and barrings of burnished bronze 
or coppery red. Then there are others of deep 
and glossy yellowness, relieved by markings of 
cinnabar. Plant in poor soil if possible, other¬ 
wise too robust. Pkt. 10c. 
THELESPERMA BURRIDGEANUM—The flow¬ 
ers remind one of certain varieties of the annual 
Coreopsis, but they are both more brilliant in 
coloring and richer in full effect. A glowing 
maroon is sharply edged with radiant golden 
orange, but the reverse of the flower shows only 
a deep red-bronze. Fine-shredded foliage. Two 
feet. Cuts nicely. Pkt. 10c. 
TORENIA BLEND—Its richly velvety blossoms 
suggest that manifest absurdity, a cross of Pansy 
and Snapdragon. They are skyblue and royal 
purple, touched with gold, or sometimes white, 
marked with rose. Torenia flowers long and 
freely. It thrives exceedingly in the garden, but 
it is used also as a pot plant, or for the window 
box Pkt 15c 
ZINNIA ANGUSTIFOLIA HYBRIDA—In this 
delightful hybrid strain of the Mexican Zinnia, the 
blossoms vary from single to fully double, but 
always with a lightsome starry individuality that 
is quite surprising in Zinnia. Often the petals 
are taperingly twisted, or down-turned. There 
will be brillant browns, sulphur, orange, gold, 
blood-red; and a petal may start with one color 
and finish quite another. 18 inches. Pkt. 15c.
