or-.Elephant’s Ear

pots or tubs, or for planting out on the lawn. Will 
grow in any garden soil, and is of the easiest cul¬ 
ture. When of full size it stands about five feet high, 
with immense leaves, often measuring four feet in 
length, by two and one-half in breadth. Smooth, of 
bright green color, beautifully veined and variegated 
with dark green. The roots should be preserved in 
dry sand in the cellar during winter, out of danger 
from frost. Good bulbs, 60 cents per dozen; $4.00 per

for this purpose. 40 cents per dozen; $3.00 per 100. 
LARGE-FLOWERING CLEMATIS

per dozen; $15.00 per 100.

sought after, but is very scarce. The color is a bright 
rosy-red, entirely distinct from any other sort. A 
grand variety; you should try it.

shade in Clematis. A pretty lavender-pink, a fine con¬ 
trast to the strong-colored sorts. Rapid in growth, and 
slender, graceful habit.

ful and distinct.

er the entire plant. Hardy in the South. We have

Japanese Virgin's Bower —One of the most beauti¬ 
ful of our hardy flowering vines. The flowers are pure 
white, and are borne in large panicles or clusters of 
bloom, fairly covering the plant, so that it is a mass 
or sheet of fleecy white. The fragrance is delicious, 
resembling the English Hawthorn blossoms. It is a 
strong, rapid grower, quickly reaching a height of 
from fifteen to twenty feet, and spreading out when 
trained to wires or string. It is perfectly hardy in all 
sections of the country. 60 cents per dozen; $4.00 per
