The new Hvbrids of Madam Gunter make a strong growth, climbing from five to six feet high, and are covered from spring to fall with large, substantial flowers of the most brilliant shades. They are remarkable for their wide range of colors, embracing rose, pink, salmon, purple, velvety dark maroon, light yellow and deep orange in self colors, as well as striped and blotched in the most fanciful manner. So ornamental is this new strain that it deserves a place in every garden, either for climbing or trailing from vases, or over the ground. Per pkt 10c PALMS. As decorative plants for the house many species of palms are rarely prized. Happily those species which will thrive in ordinary heat and with the least care are among the hand- somest and most desirable of the genus. They will do well at a window where there is little or no direct sun- shine. This peculi- arity makes these plants adapted to places quite unsuited to ordinary house- plants. CHAMBER OPS HCMILIS (Dwarf Fan Palm). —The most hardy and dwarf of its species, seldom attaining over eight or ten feet in height. Pkt 10c
