VIOLET.
SWANLEY WHITE.--A truly superb variety which originated in Italy. It is the best double pure white variety. It grows very luxuriantly in pots. In the garden it is hardy with slight protection, and greets us in early spring with a profusion of its large, snowy sweet-scented blossoms. The growth of the plant is vigorous and healthy, bearing in great numbers, very large, perfectly double flowers of pure snowy whiteness and unexcelled fragrance. It is not uncommon for a plant to have as many as fifty large flowers open at once, and they present a beautiful sight and perfume a whole room. Each 15c.
NEW DOUBLE RUSSIAN.--A magnificent hardy variety for open ground culture. Our illustration shows the way in which the plants are covered with bloom. The flowers are large, very double, deliciously fragrant and of a very deep shade of blue, and a peculiarity is that one or two petals on each flower are dotted with red. They withstand the winter perfectly, with only a slight covering of leaves or straw. What more could you ask, as it has beauty, singularity, fragrance, abundance of bloom, ease of culture and hardiness. Don't omit it from your order. Each 15c.
LOUISE.--Double purple, fragrant. Each 15c.

HELIANTHUS.
MULTIFLORUS.--(Hardy Double Golden Sunflower.)--Flowers of a rich golden yellow. Very double and as large as a dahlia. Much prized as corsage flowers. Begins to bloom in July and continues until frost. Each 15c.

LANTANAS.
There are few bedding plants that bloom more continuously or afford a greater variety of color, the colors changing in a curious manner from day to day. One of the best summer flowering plants. Each 15c.
