As a brUliant bed or border we feel sure this will be most satisfactory. 25 cts. per pkt.; 5 pkts., $ Invincible Giant Polyanthus A magnificent strain of this perfectly hardy and easily grown spring-flowering Primrose, representing the work of twenty-five years of painstaking cross-breeding and selection by a Scotch specialist. Of strong, sturdy habit, and bearing immense trusses of large flowers on self-supporting stems 10 to 16 inches in length. Un- questionably the finest strain in cultivation, containing all colors from purest white to the richest crimson. 25 cts. per pkt.; 5 pkts., $ Large Flowering Annual Scabiosa **Azure Fairy' 3943 While all of the colors of Scabiosas offered on page 110 are de- sirable we consider Azure Fairy the most beautiful of all. The large flowers of lovely lavender blue, borne on long, strong stems make them an ideal cut flower, and their ease of culture and long flowering season warrants their extensive use in every garden. 10 cts. per pkt.; 30 cts. per \ oz. Brilliant S^veet Williams 4282 Newport Pink. A distinct color in this favorite hardy plant which originated in one of the far-famed gardens at Newport, R. I. In color it is what florists call watermelon-pink or salmony- rose. For midseason mass bedding it has no equal. Perfectly hardy. 15 cts. per pkt.; 2 pkts. for 25 cts. 4281 Scarlet Beauty. A splendid companion to the above. The color is an intense rich, deep scarlet, and a most effective plant for the old-fashioned hardy border, where this shade is very uncommon. 15
