Sweet Violets 
Always favorites in the old forms, this list of the 
improved, good named varieties finds a willing 
and welcome acceptance among those who use 
perennial Violets to such good advantage. If we 
will just stop a moment and think that there is 
really no one who appreciates plants who does 
not love the Violet, it is easy to see that they 
should be a large part of every horticulturist’s 
plant assortment. These varieties listed below 
have been specially selected for presentation to 
you because they are the strong growing types 
and are prolific bloomers of exceptionally good 
color. They grow ideally out-of-doors in semi- 
shade. Taken into the greenhouses they produce 
valuable cut flower crops and also make up most 
attractively in pots. 
CONFEDERATA. A vigorous and very beautiful 
Violet, big and showy in blossom. Flowers are 
silvery white with a purple-shaded richness ra- 
diating from a dark and velvety center.

DOUBLE RUSSIAN. A perfectly hardy variety, 
producing heavy, double, sweetly scented blue
