Galla, kittle Gem. A perfect miniature Calla, growing 8 or 12 inches high, and producing very large snow-white blossoms. It is in truth a per- fect little gem. 15c. each j 3 for 30c. Guilds'Dwarf EVep- bloon>ir)o Galla. This is of a dwarf habit, and does not grow tall and seraggly like the old variety but is strong and compact, with a great abundance of lustrous dark green foliage. It is a true everbloomer. its flowers ap- pearing in great abundance both summer ;ind winter when grown in pots, or it will bloom profusely all summer long in open ground, and being j'Ottod in Sci teniber will continue blooming without intermis- sion all winter. The same plant will grow and bloom for years without once ceasing, and the quantity of bloom which a good plant will produce is astonishing. It is estimated that six plants of the old sort will not produce so many flowers in the course of a vear as will one plant of this new dwarf variety. A large plant is hardly ever without one or more flowers, and its dwarf compact habit makes it a much more desirable pot plant than the old varietv. Its flowers are of large size and snowy white in color. Pric^-First size, extra large. 25c. each. 3 for 60c.;. second size. 15c. each.
