BESSERA ELEGANS 
BESSERA ELEGANS 
New introduction from Mexico. Dainty bell- 
shaped flowers, orange red outside, creamy white 
with orange stripe inside, with purplish stamens, 
hanging in an interesting umbel from the tip of 
a graceful wiry stem 18 to 24 inches tall. Foliage 
inconspicuous. Blooms freely from July to last of 
September. Cuts well and is exceptionally interest- 
ing in flower arrangements. A striking addition to 
the summer garden, suggesting as it does, the burst 
of a miniature rocket. Should be dug in winter 
except in milder climates. Delivery early winter. 
$10.00 per 100. Supply limited.
