LAVATERA 
SPLENDENS 
“SUNSET” 
Deep Rose Pink 
The La vat era is one of the 
best of the beautiful varieties 
of Mallow, and is of particu¬ 
larly easy culture. Lavatera 
should be more generally grown 
both for its graceful habits and 
its excellent cutting qualities. 
This new variety, which adds 
another distinct color to the va¬ 
rieties now used, will surely be 
admired. 
The color is a very deep rose 
pink of charming brightness. 
The habit of the plant it great¬ 
ly improved, being more com¬ 
pact and attaining a height of 
2% feet. 
Very effective when used as 
cut flowers, and is especially 
valuable on account of its last¬ 
ing qualities. It is also great¬ 
ly admired as a bedding plant.

BALCONY PETUNIA 
Rose—White—Dark Red 
Very few annuals have come into general 
favor so rapidly as the Carlsruhe Town- 
Ilall Petunia. Its luxuriant growth and 
freely branching habit, with its great pro¬ 
fusion and persistence of bloom, is remark¬ 
ably well suited for decorating windows, 
piazza boxes and balconies. This season we can 
offer the three colors which are most popu¬ 
lar. 
These Petunias will be undoubtedly very 
satisfactory to all who try them.

COSMOS 
LADY LENOX 
Pure White 
A new color of the beautiful Lady Lenox 
Cosmos, having the same good characteris¬ 
tics as the pink variety, producing large, 
delicate blooms which measure from four 
to five inches across, borne on long, grace¬ 
ful stems. Plants grow from six to seven 
feet tall. Both varieties are excellent for 
late flowers for bouquet or table use.

CARNATION marguerite 
Golden Yellow 
A much improved strain is this new 
Golden Yellow Giant Marguerite Carnation 
over the original varieties of Marguerite 
Carnations. 
The color is of a more intense yellow, 
with stems much stronger, holding the flow¬ 
ers more erect, which increases their value 
as cut flowers. 
The doubleness of the blooms is also a 
marked improvement, greatly enhancing 
their value.
