One of the most distinct and beautiful of all decorative plants for the greenhouse or bedding; owing to its gorgeous coloring and continuous flowering, it is rapidly becoming popular. The plant is of compact habit; and succeeds admirably in an open border during the summer. When planted out at the end of June it grows luxuriantly, and produces a beautiful effect until cut down by frost. The flowers are of a brilliant rosy-scarlet color, about Xh inches in diameter. It has far surpassed the expectations of those who had a high opinion of its capacities. Per pkt., cts. PANSY, TRIMARDEAU. No. 6234. An entirely new and distinct variety. The plants are of strong, compact habit; the flowers are car- ried well above the foliage, and are marked with three large blotches. They are of refined form and of size hitherto unattained in this genus. The true Trimardeau Pansies of French origin seed much less freely than any other class; the stock we ofier was saved exclusively from fine formed flowers of the richest colors. Per pkt., 50 PANSY, MIKADO. No. When the Trimardeau Pansies were sent out, it was thought that the acme of Pansy culture was attained, but the beautiful strain now offered far surpasses it in size. Each ])etal is exquisitely stained; the richness and depth of coloring are simply marvellous. Tlie plants are vigor- ous and hardy, and bear profusely, on long stalks, per- fectly shaped flowers. This strain will attract attention, and become as popular as the play from which it takes its name.
