SWEET VIOLETS 
Violets are great favorites and do well in the open ground. If given 
a sheltered place, they will usually begin to bloom before the snow is gone, 
and continue bearing their lovely flowers for several months. The double 
varieties are not so vigorous in growth as the singles. 
Price, 15 cts. each, postpaid, unless otherwise noted. 
Governor Herrick. (Dorsett.) The single flowers are rich, dark purple 
and are carried erect on long, strong stems. For freedom of bloom this 
new variety outclasses all others. Very fragrant. 
Lady Hume Campbell. The flowers are perfectly double, like little 
roses, lovely azure-blue and delightfully fragrant. Straight, strong stems. 
Princess of Wales. Flowers are single, very large, and borne on stems io 
to 12 inches long. The color is true Violet-blue. This is one of the very 
best to grow for cut-flowers.

of rich violet-crimson, quite distinct from any other kind. 25c. each, ppd.

bloomer, perfectly double and exquisitely fragrant.

flowering clumps if planted early. 25 cts. each, postpaid.
