SALVIA SPLENDENS or SCARLET SAGE 
Scarlet Dragoon. A most magnificent summer and autumn¬ 
flowering bedding plant. The old Salvia Splendens, or 
Scarlet Sage, has long been a favorite, and our cus¬ 
tomers can partially appreciate the superiority 
of this new variety when we state that the 
flowers are nearly double the size, closely 
crowding the immense spikes that often 
measure 0 inches across. Full-grown plants 
in bloom form compact bushes 3 feet 
through by 3 feet high, and bloom from 
ground to summit. The waving masses 
of glistening scarlet against green sur¬ 
roundings of lawn or foliage is match¬ 
less. Per 1,000 seeds, 75c.; Per os.,
