NASTURTIUMS, Dwarf Finest Mixed. The best ever produced and not surpassed for g-orgeousness of colors and brilliancy of effect, embracing every known good sort, including Aurora, Empress of India. Lady Bird, King Theodore. Pearl White. Ruby King, New Brilliant, Yel- low and Spotted King. In Dwarf Nasturtiums I consider my special mixed the best that money can buy, the price may ap- pear high for this strain, but it is made up especially for criti- cal buyers that have the money to spend for the best only. Pkt., ^5 Beedg, 6 cents; oz., 25 cents. DWARF NASTURTIUns, Good Mixed. The same grade as is usually sold, and very fine. Pkt., 30 seeds, 3 cents; oz., 10 cents. TALL NASTURTIUMS, Good Hixed. Free bloomers and many bright colors^ Pkt., 30 seeds, 3 centsj oz., lO cents. TALL NASTURTIUnS, FINEST MIXED. I also offer a special mixture of the Tall, or climbing Nastiii- tiums, made up on the same basis as the Dwarf Variety finest mixed, from the best named and brightest colors only. Pkt., 25 seeds. 6 cents; oz., 5JO cents. NEW CLIMBING NASTURTIUHS.-Madame Qunther's Hybrids. A new section obtained by artificial hybridizing, and distin- guished by dark-colored foliage and flowers of a richness and variety of coloring not to be found in any of the different classes of Nasturtiums heretofore grown. Colors in these new hybiids include various shades of rose, salmon, bright red. pale yellow, etc., either self-colored or spotted, mottled, striped and mar- gined. Nothing can equal the georgeous effect produced by their marvelous quantities of bloom borne in uninterrupted splendor from early summer until cut down by frost. Their ease of culture and the few weeks of time required to bring them into bloom, the rapidity of growth, and their freedom from in- sects, should make them popular. Pkt., 'iO seeds, 8 cents.
