The Most Desirable Bedding Plant for the American Garden. No plant lntroduceduced into American gardens has ever attained such rapid popularity as this type of large dwarf French Carinas, beginning with a lew vari- eties introduced by Mons. Croz?', of Lyons, France, some ten years, of which we then sold not over three hundred plants in a season; but even the small improve- ment that was shown in these few varieties was quickly appreciated, and since then a really phenom- enal advancement has been made, so that at this time they stand pre-eminently above all other flowering plants for our climate. We offer this season but few novelties, as we were un- able to make a fair test of their respective merit on ac- count of the severe drought during the entire season; while we had some sixtv new varieties on trial we selected only six as being entirely distinct and wor- thy of introduction; all of these will be found very in- teresting. All of the novelties of last year have borne out our expectations, and are now offered at much reduced prices. We can especially recommend the two gilt-edged varieties—Queen Charlotte and Souvenir du Antoine Croz}'; these are great advances and are entirely distinct from all other sorts. Queen Charlotte—Considered by many the finest of all the gilt-edged varieties. The plant attains a height of about three feet and is furnished w7ith heavy bluish green foliage; above the. the enormous flower-spikes, towering grandl\ foliage, bear a beautiful bouquet of large flowers of perfect form, with petals of rich scarlet crimson, broadly banded with bright canary yellow. 25 cts. each; $ per doz.
