Moonf lower—White. (The true Moonflower.) This plant has be- come very popular, and is certainly a wonderful annual climber. It grows rapidly and blooms profusely. Flowers five inches in diameter, and quite fragrant. A very rapid summer climber, blooming the first season. No insects attack the leaf, and even if it did not bloom it would be very desirable, because of its foliage; but when is added to this the wonderful effect of the flowers, which are grown in great pro- fusion, it can not fail to please. The flowers are immense, pure white, sweet scented, five inches in diameter, borne very profusely, and, as they open at night, are very striking. Being a free bloomer, the effect, on a moonlight night, is charming. It is a charming plant for veran- das. Try it. Price, 10 cents. Hardy White Moonflower. This Moonflower is a hardy, per- ennial, tuberous-rooted twiner, which is perfectly hardy, living in the ground from year to year, increasing in size and strength all the time. The roots do not spread and sprout to become troublesome like some plants, and they penetrate the earth so deep that the vine is not af- fected by drought or other unfavorable conditions. The beautiful dark- green foliage is so dense as to form a perfect screen, covering the vine completely from base to summit. The flowers are usually four inches in diameter—occasionally five and sometimes six inches. They are pure satiny white, with purple throat, and produced in the greatest profusiou; open day and night from June until October. A strong plant will give more than 1,000 beautiful flowers daily for months at a time, being well distributed over the plant, forming a grand display. Tubers, 15 cents each. Otahelte Orange, or Chinese Dwarf. This is not a new plant, but one that deserves to be more generally
