Nierembengia 
1069. HIPPOMANICA (Dwarf Cup Flower). One 
of the most prolific flowering plants that we know 
of. It starts to flower when the plants are only two 
inches tall, or about fifteen weeks after the seed 
has been sown, and keeps right on until heavy 
frosts. The plant at all times is neat and compact 
appearing, the new flowers covering the older flow- 
ers and seed pods. The lavender-blue flowers en- 
riched by a touch of yellow in the center are most 
charming. Plants are very dwarf, compact, and not 
over six inches high with a spread of ten inches. 
Foliage is light gray green. Recommended for an 
edging or border plant. Very beautiful in window 
boxes or ftower pots. Seed slow to germinate and 
should be carefully started early in flats. Pkt., 20c; 
2 pkts., 35c.
