New Giant Flowered Heliotrope 
Efforts to improve the Heliotrope have been persistently made by experts 
all over the world for a number of years, and at last these efforts have been 
successful; realization has surpassed the most ardent expectation. One can 
scarcely recognize the old garden favorite in its new glorified form. The 
size of the foliage and its quality is doubled; the habit of the plant is made 
compact and bushy instead of being scraggy and sprawling; the size of the 
flowers is magnified beyond belief, specimen heads measuring ten to fifteen 
inches across; the color is better. (See cut ) Price, 25c. each, 5 for SI.00. 
Note. —We can supply the ordinary Heliotropes, all fine sorts, fragrant, 
blue, lavender and white, at 10c. each, $1.00 per dozen. 
KEW GIANT FLOWERED HELIOTROPE. 
Japan Iris. 
(Iris Kxmpferi.) 
The grand effect of these in the 
hardy border cannot be surpassed. 
The flowers are of enormous size, 
averaging from 8 to 10 inches 
across, of charming combinations 
of color, the leading being white, 
crimson, rose, lilac, lavender, violet 
and blue; each flower usually repre¬ 
senting several shades, while a golden 
yellow blotch, surrounded by a halo of 
blue or violet at the base of the petals, 
intensifies the coloring. They are perfectly 
hardy, flower in great profusion in July and 
August, and attain the greatest perfection if 
plentifully supplied with water while growing and 
flowering. (See ait.) Price, 15c. each, 4 for 50c.
