ASCLEPIAS. New Hardy Tritoma, May Queen. A Tritoma that will bloom the first season from seed is indeed a novelty worthy of more than ordinary attention. May Queen will flower the first summer from SDring sown seed, sending up tall flower stems on which are borne the great plume-like blossoms of rich yellow and flame color. The plants are also perfectly hardy in the open ground here, and start growth and bloom very early in the spring. They are in full profusion of bloom end of May. The growth is stronger and the bloom more abundant each year. Much more vigorous than any other sort. A superb novelty. Plants, Strong plants, 20c. each; 3 for 50c Everblooming Tritoma Hybrids. These hybrids of Pf itzieri are great bedding plants, sur- passing the finest Cannas for attractiveness and brilliancy, equal to Gladiolus as a cut flower and blooms incessantly from June until December, regardless of frost. Should be planted out early in spring, and will commence growth and bloom at once, growing larger and finer every day. Plants show 8 to 20 grand flower stalks all the time, each holding at a height of 3 to 4 feet a great cluster of flowers of indescrib- able beauty and brilliancy. Each cluster keeps perfect several weeks, and when it fades, 2 or 3 more are ready to take its place. Fall frosts do not stop its blooming, and it is as brilliant as ever long after all other garden flowers have been killed. For cutting it is unsurnassed, and the beautiful long spikes keep several weeks in water. It is a most desirable garden flower. Mixed Hybrids—Hanging in color from yellow to brilliant scarlet. 20c each ; 3 for 50c.; 7 for $ Garden Pinks, Early Flowering. For cut and full descrip
