Ornamental 
Gourds, 
If you have an 
odd corner or an 
old brush heap, 
trail the gourd 
vine over it. Its 
fruit has many 
uses, but if for no 
other purpose 
raise it for the lit¬ 
tle ones. They 
much enjoy the 
gaily striped, odd 
shaped fruits. A 
mixture of nine 
named varieties, 
including dipper, 
striped, pear- 
shaped, ostrich egg, ap¬ 
ple, orange and tirban 
gourds. Mixed. Pkt., 4c.

“I have made a perfect suc¬ 
cess of Primroses from your 
seed.” Emily C. Howell. 
GREVILLEA ROBUSTA. 
The “ Silk Oak,” a valuable decorative plant, ger 
minating readily from seed, and making in two or 
three months’ time a very ornamental little plant. 
The laciniated foliage gives it somewhat the ap¬ 
pearance of a fern, but it is much hardier and more 
useful as a decorative plant. Pkt., 5 cts. 
GLADIOLUS LEMOINEI. 
It is interesting to raise Gladioli from seed and 
see the endless variety of colors and fantastic 
markings that come from the seedlings, scarcely 
any two being alike. No finer varieties are offered 
than the Lemoinei. Pkt., 4 cts. 
GOURDS. 
LEMOINE’S GIANT HELIOTROPE. 
A magnificent new strain, with large, glossy leaves 
and immense heads of deliciously fragrant flowers, 
much larger than in the ordinary varieties. A single 
truss in a well-developed plant measures from ten to 
fifteen inches across and contains thousands of indi¬ 
vidual florets. Pkt., 5 cts. 
Garden heliotrope (Valeriana Officinalis). 
Hardy perennial, doing well in almost any position. 
It grows to a height of two feet, and bears large heads 
of sweetly-scented, delicate flowers. Mixed, red and 
white. Pkt., 3 cts.
