Helianthus Perkeo. SALVIA SPLENDENS. " LITTLE LORD ; On account of its tall growth, the Salvia has not been available for bedding in many combinations where its brilliant color would render it most effective. But this new variety grows only 18 inches high from the ground to the tips of the flower spikes, while the foliage rises no more than 10 inches from the ground, the 8 inch flower spikes standing erect and clear above the handsome dark green leaves. The plant is of very compact and bushy habit, being as broad as it is high, while the number, size and brilliancy of the flower spikes surpass anything ever seen in Salvias before. For bedding in masses alone, or with plants of equal height, or for borders around beds of taller plants, we know nothing that will be so serviceable or so striking. Pkt., 25 cents.

This is a German introduction of last year and well worthy of attention. The plants are of strong growth and branching habit. Both main and side stems are covered with large rose-shaped flowers of the brightest imaginable tint of carmine rose. The whole plant forms a grand pyramidal shaped bouquet, the effect of which is enhanced by the bright green foliage. It comes into flower early, stands unfavorable weather well and produces about 70 per cent of double flowers. Seed may be sown any time up to July.
