. Park's floral guide 1901. Nursery stock Pennsylvania Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs. 30 The Beautiful Kenilworth Ivy. Superb special mixture, 4 pkts. 10 cents, 1 pkt. 3 cents. One of the most beautiful of basket or vase plants is Kenilworth Ivy (Linaria Cymballariaj, and it can be grown from seeds by anyone as readily as a Morning Glory Seedlii-g plants are of rapid growth, come int o in a few weeks, and make long, drooping sprays of exquisite foliage thickly set with lovely little flowers. The plant thrives in a cool, dense shade, and likes plenty of moisture about the roots. The plants are hardy perennials with pro- tection at the north, and are excellent for carpeting a bed of Roses or Gladiolus. For a north window, or a window which the sun does not reach this lovely basket plant is just suited. It also does well in plant vases kept in a shaded place. The common sort has lilac-colored flowers, but I can supply the new white-flowered and the rose-flowered separately at 5 cents per packet. These rare and beautiful new vari- eties, however, are included in my special mixture, which is prepared with care, and offered at 4 packets 10 cts., 1 packet 3 Lantana, New Dwarf.

Seedlings are very thrifty, begin to bloom in autumn and produce the finest flowers. The plants are easily trans- planted, and flourish in any rich soil in a sunny exposure. They like heat, and when plants are bedded out in the spring they bloom abundantly throughout the hottest months. The only objection to Lantanas for either house or garden has been their tall, loose growth. This can be overcome somewhat by severe pruning—cutting back the more vigorous branches to encour- age a dense and bushy growth. The New Dwarf Lantanas I offer, are, however, naturally of dwarf and compact
