BECAUSE of their free flowering habit and long season of bloom, Violas are becoming rapidly more popular 
for use in the foreground of the border, in small beds, and in rockeries, where their dwarf spreading habit 
is welcomed. They continue flowering all summer.

Miscellaneous Violas 
5797 Johnny-Jump-Up or Viola Tricolor. Also 
known as “‘Ladies’ Delight’ and ‘None so Pretty” 
of our grandmother's garden. It is a_ precious 
possession even if we have to weed out the plants 
when they get too ambitious and crowd out more 
delicate kinds. They are more hardy than their 
relative the Violas and if allowed to seed will carpet 
a rose oriris bed with a mass of flowers early in May. 
They bloom all season. Purple, blue and yellow are 
the three colors that give them their name and the 
combinations are variable—sometimes there will be 
a yellow blossom and below. it on the same stalk 
one of yellow and blue. Pkt., 25c. 
5811A Nigra or Black Imp. Quaint little flowers 
that might have been snipped from black velvet, 
come true from seed. Maybe naturalized effectively. 
Blooms quickly first year from seed. Pkt., 25c. 
5805 Yellow Gem. Free flowering clear yellow of 
compact habit, reproduced nearly true from seed. 
See illustration in color. Pkt., 20c.
