2 CRYPTANTHUS ACAULIS ROSEUS—Delightful foliage 
plant for pot culture. It makes rosettes of tapering, curving

A Bromeliad. Plants, each 55c; 3 for $1.45. 
THE VARIED CUPHEAS 
eee! colorful plants, all blooming first year from 
seed.

a7 ecbx(8)20. An easy and gay long- 
> blooming annual that shows amaz- 
ing color range in its flowers. There 
will be lavender, lilac, white, pure 
pink, rose purple, crimson and fire 
searlet. Illustrated opposite. Pkt. 20c; 
3 pkts. for 50c. 
5 CUPHEA FIREFLY—Like a more 
dwarf and compact variant of the 
last with blossoms all in brilliant 
fire red. Good as a pot plant, or in 
the garden. Pkt. 20c; 3 pkts. for 50c; 10 for $1.50.

2 THE ORNAMENTAL CROTONS 
Large pot plants with exceedingly showy, usually brilliantly 
colored foliage. Scarce two plants will be alike, in shape and 
form of leaf, in coloring, or in marking. Not difficult to grow 
at ordinary room heat, unless winter temperature is allowed 
to drop unduly at night. Also sometimes used in summer gar- 
den effects, plunged in the border, or even for bedding. Each 
seedling will be a new, and different, variety, to be further 
propagated, if desired, by cuttings. Seeds grow quite readily 
if sown under glass. 4 seeds for 25c; 18 seeds for $1.00. (Codi- 
aeum pictum variegatum). 
CYCLAMEN FOR CHARM AND BEAUTY 
Easy enough from seeds sown under glass, rather sure to 
germinate. However a tiny tuber is formed before any growth 
appears above the surface, and it may take six weeks and 
more to produce first leaf. 
2 CYCLAMEN GIANT-FLOW ERED—vw. A splendid strain for 
pot culture, brilliantly colored flowers of great size, not ex- 
celled, we believe, by any other. Glorious color range. Fra- 
grant blossoms above ornamental foliage. 6 seeds for 25c; 14 
for 50c; 30 for $1.00; 100 for $2.95. 
2 CYCLAMEN ROCOCO—w. Large flowers with fringed pet- 
als. Startling, but beautiful, in the variations of both form 
and color. 6 seeds for 25c; 14 for 50c; 30 for $1.00. 
1 CYCLAMEN HARDY BLEND—kt. Here are winter-hardy 
kinds for the outdoor garden. Flowers are smaller than those 
of the tender Cyclamen, but as exquisite in form. Delicately 
fragrant. Blossoms may be white, pink, rose or crimson, foli- 
age often marbled or undulate. The seedlings should include 
both spring and autumn flowering forms. Delightful in the 
somewhat shady rock garden, in angle of a house, or at edge 
of shrubbery. 10 seeds for 25c; 33 for 75c; 100 for $2.00. 
CYCLAMEN NEAPOLITANUM—tThis fully winter-hardy 
Cyclamen for outdoor planting, yields in autumn a profusion 
of pink to carmine blossoms over wavy, white-marbled foliage. 
It will delight in any shady corner. 10 seeds for 25c; 33 for 
75c; 100 seeds for $2.00. Tubers, spring or autumn delivery, 
each 55c; 3 for $1.45. 
Z A GRACEFUL TREMBLER 
It is CURCULIGO CAPITULA, an unusual Amarylliad

flowers. Of easy handling if given plenty of moisture. Pkt. 25c.
