Late Branching Aster (Wilt-resistant) 
Calceolaria, 
_Feltham Scarlet_ 
Greenhouse Annual. This is one of the most 
striking colors among the hybrid Calceolarias. 
The plants are fairly dwarf and compact in 
habit and the rich dark scarlet flowers will 
make a glorious show in the greenhouse and 
a bright display in a sheltered position in 
the open ground. Pkt. 50 cts., 3 pkts. $1.25. 
Centaurea Cyanus, 
_ Jubilee Gem _ 
Annual. A dwarf variety of Cornflower, 
making a compact plant literally covered 
with flowers. Its foliage is distinct from all 
other Cornflowers, forming a tufted mass of 
bright green, contrasting well with the dark 
but vivid blue, double flowers. The plant is 
about 1 foot in height, making it suitable for 
pots or border work. Pkt. 50 c., 3 pkts. $1.25. 
Cheiranthus Allioni, 
_Golden Bedder_ 
Siberian Wallflower 
Hardy Perennial. We believe this will 
prove to be one of the most popular peren¬ 
nials ever introduced, for it has all the at¬ 
tributes of the original Siberian Wallflower. 
The color is deep golden yellow and the indi¬ 
vidual flowers are larger than the type. Also 
its fine tone will blend more easily with many 
subjects than does that of Allioni. Pkt. 35 
cts., 3 pkts. $1. 
Chelidonium, 
_ Yellow Queen _ 
Biennial. This is indeed an arresting bien¬ 
nial, growing 4 to 5 feet high, with attractive, 
gray-green, cut foliage, somewhat resembling 
that of meconopsis. The flowers, of a beauti¬ 
ful butter-yellow, are produced freely. Pkt. 
50 cts., 3 pkts. $1.25.
