LOASA. 
The two varieties below are not Climbers, but Creep¬ 
ers, and need no sticks, nor are they fragrant. They 
are suited for baskets and places where a Creeper 
with plenty of foliage is desirable. 
Peas, Scarlet Winged, beautiful, small flowers; 5 
Yellow Winged, same habit as Scarlet Winged, 5 
THUNBERGIA. 
Maurandya plants should be grown in the hot-bed or 
green-house. Growth of plant, five or six feet, and the i 
foliage abundant. The flowers of the Maurandya are 
of good size and form and color, being about the size 
and appearance of Digitalis, and the colors different 
shades of blue, white and mauve. Good for baskets, 
vases, or for verandahs.

PEAS, FLOWERING. 
Peas should be sown four inches deep, and as early in 
the spring as possible. Don’t wait for fair weather. Use 
plenty of seed, so that they will not be more than an inch 
apart. Hoe the earth toward the plant a little, but do 
not form a ridge, and furnish support early. I he 
Flowering Sweet Peas are the sweetest of our climbing 
annuals, and as beautiful as any. 1 he flowers are of 
every color from the darkest purple imaginable to clear 
white, and as fragrant as Mignonette. 
Thunbergia starts rather slowly at first. Seed requires 
hot-bed treatment, but plants are grown easily from cut¬ 
tings. Flowers white or orange ; fine for baskets. All 
The Loasa is a good climber, with curious, handsome, 
yellow and red flowers. The branches are covered with 
stinging hairs that give pain when touched. Blooms 
abundantly.
