" TREASURE VINE." (Childsia Wercklei.) A plant, entirely unknown to science until discovered recently by Mr. Carlo Werckle, in the mountain regions of Costa Rica. It is a beautiful climbing compositaj, suitable for cool, shady win- dows or verandas. While it will grow to the height of 10 "feet, it blooms profusely when very small, its flowers being like a clem- atis in shape but intense "scarlet in color, which, added to the beauty of its foliage and natural grace of growth, makes one of the most elegant flowering plants ever seen. It is a quick, robust grower, and so hardy and vigorous that it will stand any amount of abuse.'- Specimens sent to the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew attracted great attention, and it has been decided to call it Treas- ure Vine on account of its great value. Fine plants, 25c. each ; 3 for 60c; 5 for $I.OC THE "ARBUTUS," or MAYFLOWER VERBENA. Raised by Luther Burbank (the Wizard of Horticulture). The shape of its flowers and clusters of bloom, as well as its color, are identical with the flowers of the Trailing Arbutus, or Mayflower, and having the.same superb fragrance. The size of the flowers are about equal to a silver quarter, and in delicate coloring and rich perfume it has no rival. Strong plants, 10c. each ; 3 for 25c. Seed. Tkt. 50 seeds, 10c; 3 for 25c.
