' We offer seed from the finest collection- 
in Europe. If the seed is started early 
in a hot-bed an abundance of flowers 
will be produced the same season. 
They like a rich, deep soil. The roots 
should be housed during winter. D. 
Glory flowers vary in size from one to 
three inches and are scabious -like in 
construction. Monarch is a cross be¬ 
tween a double and cactus, very large 
semi-double.

The biennial sorts are all well-known 
favorites that flower the first season. 
The colors of the Heddewegii vary 
through all shades of crimson to a deli¬ 
cate rose.

purple. They are all exceedingly or¬ 
namental, and suitable alike for beds, 
borders, house cultivation and cutting. 
Sweet fragrance and great diversity in 
color and form are theirs peculiarly.
