a low, creeping habit, it is fine for a border, mass effect, or for 
window-boxes or baskets. (Ger. io to 14 days.)

lent flower to vase. (Ger. 14 days.)

new strain’s characteristics is that the flowers remain open until 
late in the afternoon. This habit gives it the name it is known 
by in some sections—the Blue Moonflower. Pkt. 15 cts.; 2 pkts.
