A magnificent selection of Feathered Cockscomb, of true pyramidal branching habit; the flower spikes vary in the most magnificent shades of color from the clearest yellow to the dark- est blood-red. (See cut.) 15 cts. per pkt. CELOSIA SPICATA. A handsome annual, forming upright, well-branched pyramids about 2J feet in height, and producing at the summit of each branch spikes of flowers of a bright rose-color when opening, changing to silvery white; fine for the garden or growing in pots. 15 cts. per pkt. CENTAUREA RUTIFOLIA PURPUREA. Like Centaurea Gymnocarpa and Cineraria Maritima this silver-leaved adapted for beds, groups, filling vases, etc. It is of more compact growth than either of the aforenamed and more readily kept in shape, and, in addition, bears freely very pretty purple flowers, which contrast beautifully with the silvery foliage. 25 cts. per pkt. The SHASTA DAISY. (Chrysanthemum Leucantliemuia Hybridum.) This we consider the finest of all the Moonpenny Daisies. The flowers are of the snowiest white, with yel- low centres; large and graceful and produced in countless numbers on long, strong stems, making it a valuable cut flower. It is a per- ennial, absolutely hardy, and blooms the first season from seed. Being a hybrid, the seedlings are likely to vary somewhat. This is a pro- duction of Luther Burbank, the famous California hybridizer, and from whom our supply of seed was obtained. 25 cts per pkt.; 5 pkts., $ plant is peculiarly.
