the best white Candytuft. We cannot endorse it too highly.

Nots, the flowers of this one are white, striped with blue.

DOBBIE S WHITE SPIRAL CANDYTUFT. 
CLARKIA ELEGANS NANA ROSEA. 
Clarkia Elegans Nana Rosea. 
New dwarf compact growing variety of this free-flower 
ing hardy annual. The bushy plants, attaining only 
10 to 12 inches in height, produce their large pink flowers 
on short, upright branches, and form, thus intermixed with 
the dark green foliage, a pretty sight. May be well recom¬ 
mended for groups or for ribboning. 
Per packet, 25 cents. 
Centaurea Cyanus Nana Compacta. 
NEW VARIETIES. 
Ernst Benary, the introducer, says: “I am now in a position to offer for the first 
time varieties of the charming miniature blue Corn- -- ^ 
flower, Centaurea Cyanus Victoria, already known and 
prized everywhere. 
“In height and habit they are similar to the parent 
form and comprise flowers of white, lilac, rose, light 
blue and brown-red tints, thus causing a bed of them 
to present quite a gay aspect. These little Cornflowers 
make a fine show in spring and are specially suited to 
autumn sowing, as they are capable of withstanding 
severe cold. I may also mention that the young 
seedlings bear transplanting well.” 
Per packet, 25 cents. CENTAUREA CYANUS NANA COMPACTA.
