Commercial catalogs Pennsylvania Philadelphia; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. Forget-me-not, " Distinction," ten weeks after sowing. p0RGET=ME=N0Tiisij^pe8tris) 6r4 " Distinction," New Early Flowering. This new variety is different from all the other sorts of Forget-me-not which do not bloom until the second year. Distinction is a seedling of "Al- pestris Victoria" and may be sown at any time of the year; if treated properly it will com- mence flowering about eight to ten weeks after the time the seeds have been sown. The plants are of a stout bushy habit of growth and it blooms like Victoria, having the same large bright azure blue flowers. The plant attains a height of five to seven inches, a diameter of eight to ten inches, and when fully grown is quite globular in shape and perfectly covered with flowers. The great value of Distinction is that if placed in a greenhouse in autumn it will con- tinue flowering all the winter, and will be very useful for cutting; it has also proved to be the very best variety for forcing. Not alone for edgings and masses, but especially for growing in pots as well as for cutting it may safely be pronounced a first-class novelty. It has been awarded a large silver medal at the Second Jubilee Exhibition at Dresden, May, 1896. Per pkt.
