IPOMOEA “BABY BLUE” 
2496 This entrancingly beautiful climber came to us a few years ago— only a few 
seeds-—from a customer in the middle west who wanted us to grow it and 
identify the variety. The accompanying enthusiastic description we proved 
to be fully justified. We do not know the variety name but we do know 
that it is the most lovely light blue Ipomoea and different from any other 
we have ever seen. The vines grow luxuriantly about 15 feet high, well 
clothed with large durable leaves and commencing in July — from March- 
sown seeds —the plants are sheeted until frost with white-throated light ceru- 
blue flowers — about 2 J 3 inches across and of such substance that they often 
remain open all day. Per 100 seeds, 50c.; Pkt. 10c. 
THE NEW GIANT WHITE MOONFLOWER 
2500 Ipomoea Grandiflora Maxima. This greatly improved variety of the popular 
Moonflower Vine, produces much larger flowers and in greater profusion. 
If grown in well enriched soil in a warm, sunny location and given sufficient 
water while making growth, the vine will attain a height of from 60 to 75 
feet during the summer season, and be covered with large bluish green heart- 
shaped leaves, and will be studded from July until frost with immense saucer¬ 
shaped flowers from 7 to 8 inches across and as glistening white as disks of 
white satin. They are also softly fragrant. The flowers open about sunset 
close the next morning, though on cloudy days they remian open until noon. 
The effect, particularly on moonlit nights, is entrancingly beautiful. ( See 
engraving.) . Per 100 seeds, 50c.; Pkt. 10c. 
GIANT JAPANESE MORNING GLORY 
(Ipomoea Imperialis) 
The robust vines attain a height of from 30 to 50 feet. The foliage is luxuriant, 
distinct and varied, mostly green, but many leaves are mottled light and dark green, 
white and gray. 
But the surpassing charm of these “ Giant Japanese Morning Glories" lies in the 
entrancing beauty and large size of the flowers; they measure from 3 to 4 inches 
across. The colors of the flowers, shading?-and markings, are limitless. Some 
flowers are of deep, rich, velvety colors, others daintily tinted and shaded. There 
are reds from soft rose to crimson and garnet; daintiest blue to purple; snow-white 
to silver-gray, new terra-cotta and coffee-colored shades. Some flowers are striped, 
blotched and spotted; others have magnificent edges and throats. ( See engraving.)

BRAZILIAN MORNING GLORY 
2520 Ipomoea Setosa is the botanical name o'f this magnificent summer climbing 
annual. It grows with the greatest vigor and luxuriance. The leaves are 
8 to 12 inches across, overlapping each <pther and making a dense shade. 
The vine is covered with short reddish hairs which, with its immense leaves 
and large clusters of curious seed capsules, render it highly ornamental. We 
know of nothing better for quickly covering a piazza, arbor or tree. The 
flowers are of beautiful rose color, and are borne in large clusters.
