. Annual descriptive catalogue of seeds : the largest collection in the world. Nursery stock New York (State) New York Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs; Vegetables seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs. 6 J. M. Thorburx & Co., 15 John St., New York. Aster, White Ostrich-Feather. This magnificent new Aster, originated from the Goliath type, is remarkable for the immense size of its flowers, which average 6 inches in diameter. They are of a beautiful snow-white color, and the petals are exceedingly long, loosely formed, and curled and waved like an ostrich feather. They resemble the finest Japanese chrysanthemums.

This novelty received a silver medal at the International Exhibition in Hamburg, 1897. Per pkt., 25 cts. Campanula mirabilis. This, the most beautiful of all the Bellflowers, was recently discovered in the Caucasus. It is densely branched from the bottom, forming a low pyramidal bush about 2 feet in diameter, and each branch bears a great number of large flowers of a pale blue or lilac color. The plants, when in full bloom, present a regular flowering pyramid of at least a hundred open blossoms. Per pkt., 25 cts. Carnation, New Giant Perpetual. An improved giant-flowered strain of the Chabaud Perpetual Carnation, which we introduced to America three years ago, and which is now so deservedly popular. The plants grow from 16 to 20 inches high, are closely branched, and the straight, vertical flower-stems are covered with very double flowers of perfect form and of enormous size. They flower within seven months after being sown, and combine the perfection of form of the Perpetual with the earliness and hardiness of the Margaret Carnations. They are very fragrant, and excellent for cutting. We offer White, Yellow and Mixed. The yellow are reproduced 80 per cent true to color, and range from
