A remarkably handsome annual from Southwest c'^k A ^B Africa. It forms much-branched bushes 2 to 3 feet ^—>\ A high; its flowers are large and showy, being pure white on the upper surface, the reverse of petals pale lilac-blue. There are few annual flowers grown in the garden more valuable for cut flower work than the Arctotis. It is easily grown from seed, and may be started in hotbed, in the house, or in the open ground, the seed germinating in about five days, and the plants may be expected to come into bloom early in July and continue until quite hard frost. It delights in a sunny situation. As a cut flower it is especially valuable, the blooms lasting a week or ten days in water, and if un- developed buds are cut and placed in a sunny window every one will open and produce as fine flowers as though left on the plant. \ oz., 30 cts 10 AR3IERIA (Sea Pink or Thrift) 1221 Formosa.
