GIANT IMPERIAL SWEET SULTAN 
(Centaurea Imperialis.) 
These new varieties of the old Sweet Sultan are grand improvements, producing 
long-stemmed blossoms 3 to 4 inches across, of graceful, airy effect, and most deliciously 
fragrant. The colors are varied from glistening white through shades of red, from 
flesh-pink to crimson and through blues from silvery-lilac to royal-purple, some of them 
having centres of some distinct color, as violet with white centre, etc.; for bouquets, 
vases, or as corsage flowers they are of exceptional value. If cut scarcely opened they 
will last for ten days in water. The plants are of the easiest culture, flowering freely 
in the garden the first summer from seed sown in the spring. They are of strong, bushy 
form, 2 to 3 feet high. (See cut.)
