SALPIGLOSSIS Dwarf Flowering Emperor. 
Salpiglossis is a favorite garden annual, producing during the summer large 
petunia-like flowers of blue, yellow, red, etc., all of which are intricately veined 
and netted with some other color. The Emperor type bears its flowers along 
one tall main stem about 30 inches high; this new dwarf strain differs only in 
height, 18 to 20 inches; very showy for garden decoration.

SALVIA SPLENDENS, SCA Kooon. 
A most magnificent summer and autumn flowering bedding 
plant. The old Salvia Splendens, or Scarlet Sage, has long 
been a favorite, and our customers 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 6 inches across. Full-grown plants in 
bloom form compact bushes 3 feet through by 3 feet high, 
and bloom from ground to summit. We know of nothing 
that can equal the gorgeous effect of a row orbed of these 
Salvias, when in full bloom; the waving masses of glisten¬ 
ing scarlet against green surroundings of lawn or foliage is 
matchless. (See cut.). . . .Per 1,000 seeds, 75c., Pkt. 15c. 
“The Salvia ‘Scarlet Dragoon 1 turned out splendidly, 
it is still a blaze of color, and the people around here are 
constantly remarking on its splendid appearance .”
