FOUR PARK FAVORITES 
Incarvillea 
Hibiscus Manihot Sunset 
INCARVILLEA DELAVAYI 
This plant was found by a French Mis¬ 
sionary upon a lofty mountain in China. 
It is a very choice herbaceous perennial 
of easy propagation from seeds, and will 
grow and bloom for many years. 
The flower scapes rise a, foot or more 
and bear at their summit from one to a 
dozen bright rosy purple, trumpet-shaped 
flowers 2 in. in diameter. The plant is 
beautiful both in foliage and in flower, 
and well deserves a place in every gar¬ 
den. The seeds may be sown early in 
pots or trays and transplanted later to a 
rich, loamy soil in a sunny situation. Be 
sure to try it. Pkt. 5c. 
CHARMING TRIONUM 
Hibiscus Calisureus is a well-known hardy annual from Africa, 2 ft. high with rather 
showy white flowers. From this species, however, has been developed the elegant 
Hibiscus Trionum, branching and bearing flowers 6 inches across, pleasing white with an 
attractive dark center. This flower is very 
beautiful, blooming freely for a long time 
during Summer and Autumn, new flowers 
opening for several hours every day. Sow 
in Spring or Fall. Once started the flower 
will take care of itself. Give it a trial. 5 cts. 
AMBERBOA MURICATA 
ROSEA 
The new Amberboa Muricata Rosea is a 
hardy annual that deserves a place in every 
garden, not only as a showy bedding plant, 
but to afford flowers for cutting. Plants grow 
two feet or more in height, branch freely, 
and are covered with lovely bloom from July 
until October. The flowers are rosy-pink in 
color, two to three inches across, borne on 
long stems, and very graceful. See engrav¬ 
ing. They keep well when cut, and are ex¬ 
cellent to work into designs or bouquets.
