DESCRIPTION. 
The flowers are closed during the day. 
Sweet scented at night. 
Continuous bloomers. Fine for bedding 
or pot culture. Golden ball is espe 5 
cially fine. 
'I Like a warm, sunny situation. They 
are all effective in beds, rock work, 
baskets or vases. M crystallinum has 
peculiar glistening foliage. 
The leaves of this plant close up if 
touched or shaken. 
A genus of handsome, profuse flowering 
| plants, with singularly shaped and 
| brilliant colored flowers. The seed 
should be sown early indoors. 
) Seed should be sown early indoors, and 
the plants set out when the weather is 
y settled. If desired the roots may be 
kept over winter in the same way as 
dahlias. 
Of very curious form, easily grown and 
worthy of attention. 
Showy plant with red salvia-like flowers. 
Acanthus-like in growth, flowers like the 
verbena. 
Charming little plants, very popular, pro 
ducing their beautiful star-like flowers 
in great profusion ; invaluable for 
spring garden decoration. 
The stricta is an entirely new class of 
[> pillar-like form and very attractive. 
They with the Victoria are the best 
sorts for pot culture. M. palustris 
Tom Thumb is a miniature marsh For¬ 
get-me-not that flowers from May until 
frost. 
See Nymphaea for cultural directions. 
Sow the seed in light soil in March or 
April ; requires gentle bottom heat. 
Beautiful and of easy culture. 
Species of Tobacco. The three sorts 
first named have deliciously fragrant 
f flowers. Colossea is a handsome orna¬ 
mental green foliage plant.
