CALCEOLARIAS 
Our strain of these is produced by the foremost specialists of the 
world. 
"Indian Prince" 
This is a new color selection from the popular Multiflora Nana strain, 
retaining the fine dwarf, free-flowering habit. The color is a rich dark 
scarlet with an orange suffusion, a color that will contrast richly with 
the new Golden Tiger of the same class. Tr. Pkt.$1.00 
Feltham Scarlet 
(Grower's description.) 
This is one of the most striking colors among the splendid hybrid 
Calceolaria which we introduced last year under the name Feltham 
Glory, and we have decided to issue it separately. The plants are 
fairly dwarf and compact in habit and the flowers of a rich dark 
scarlet, which will make a glorious show in the greenhouse and a 
bright display in a somewhat sheltered position in the open ground.
