WISCONSIN ANTIRRHINUM TOM THUMB 'DAINTY GEM' We herewith offer a color, which has hitherto been lack- ing in this section, and a plant with the real compact Tom Thumb habit. _ The plants stand evenly .like ranks of soldiers and the strain comes true from seed, not throwing a percentage of taller plants like most other varieties of its class. The flowers are of a beautiful delicate shade of rose, closely resembling the favorite sort, Fascination, and nothing better can be ima- gined for flat dwarf bedding schemes and ribbon borders.

Antirrhinum Tom Thumb 'Dainty Gem.' BLUE LACE FLOWER 'DIDISCUS COERULEUS' None of the easily grown garden annuals have within re- cent years attained greater popularity than the Blue Lace Flower. The plants grow about 2 feet high, producing umbel- shaped flowers of the most beautiful clear, cerulean or heaven- ly blue. Seed sown outdoors after danger from frost will pro- duce plants which should bloom continuously from July to October. Pkt, 10c; Vs oz., 25c. TRACHELIUM COERULEUM An exceedingly attractive hardy biennial forming masses of lavender blue flowers. The umbel-shaped blossoms which are similar in appeatance to the Blue Lace Flower, but larger, are borne freely on long, stiff stems and are excellent for cutting. Pkt., 25c.
