A new plant for winter blooming which surpasses anynovelty that has been brought out in many years. In fact,it will be hard to name a plant now in cultivation whichcan equal it in beauty and general good qualities. It has amost beautiful fern-like foliage and blooms perpetuallyevery day in the year, its blossoms being the shape andnearly the size of Sweet Peas, and borne in great clustersof twenty to forty. These clusters appear at the axils ofthe leaves, and a single branch shows many clusters ofbloom at all times The plant is a free and rapid grower,beginning to bloom in three or four weeks from cuttings,and continuing for years. It is easier to grow and managethan-a Geranium, thriving in any soil and in any window,and is a superb bedding plant for the garden in summer-We believe there is no plant so easy to grow, or one thatthrives and blooms under all conditions as does this charm-ing Swan flower.
