Mexican Primrose. THE BEAUTIFUL MEXICAN PRIMROSE. A charming basket or pot plant, just brought to notice by extensive advertising. It is certainly a very worthy plant, and indispensable to every collection. Flowers of a beautiful bright clear pink color, veined with scarlet, and with a bright cen- ter. The superb color, combined with airy grace and beauti- ful form, goes to make a flower which is in beauty perfection itself. The plant seldom grows over ten inchec in height, but inclines to a trailing habit, spreading its branches out over the ground, or drooping over the sides of the pot. We offer nice plants at 8 cents each; 4 for 25 cents; 10 for 50 cents. PLUMBAGO The Plumbagoes are always satisfactory plants, either for pot culture or for the garden. They are constant bloomers, and their delicate and graceful flowers are very useful for cutting. Capensis—A well-known favorite, and always valuable be- cause it produces large trusses of beautiful light blue flowers. Price, 10 cents each. Capensis Alba—The counterpart of Plumbago Capensis, excepting in color, which is creamy white. A constant bloomer. A splendid new sort. Price, 10 cents each. Coccinea Rosea Superba—Flowers in long racemes from twelve to fifteen inches in length; the color is bright, satiny carmine; a grand house plant, and worthy extended culture. Price, 15 cents each.

The plants are strong, upright in habit, growing to a height of twelve to fifteen inches in compact clumps, and from the middle of July until severe fro%t are covered with lovely, rich, violet-blue color
