Alyssum SNOWTUFf A favorite little annual, because of abundance of bloom. As easy to grow blooms from early summer until severe freezing weather in fall. Sow seed very early in the open srround. Per pkt. Sweet—Racemes of cruciform white flowers 5 I,ittle Gem—An improved variety; much larger flowers, of a pure white, and, if possible, more floriferous than the old Sweet. Plant is also more robust and spread- ing, a single plant forming a thick mat of flowers and foliage 12 to 15 inches across. Three and four hundred spikes of flowers in full bloom can be counted on a good plant at one time. 3 pkts. for 20c 10 Snowttift—This marvelous new Alyssum is so dwarf, com- pact and free flowering that a border of it is like a tuft of new-fallen snow. The plants grow so compact and the flowers are so numerous that nothing but a sheet of glistening white can be seen. We have at- tempted in our cut to give some idea of this, but it can- not do it justice. Suffice it to say £hat this Alyssum is one of the very finest Flower Seed Novelties ever intro- duced and one that will give satisfaction beyond what anyone may anticipate. Blooms in 4 weeks from seed and makes one of the finest pots of winter flowers 10.
