COLE'S CHOICE NOVELTIES. 15 oo 'WHIRLWIND." Hardy, Strong and Free Bloomer. In habit the plant is like the well known White Jaoan Anemone; the same strong growth "and healthy foliage, and perhaps even more abundantly blooming. The flowers, which are 2% to 3 inches across, have several rows of white petals, and the blooms last much longer than those of the single varietj'. The plants grow quite evenly' iu height, from 2!/2 to 3 feet, and with large and plenti- ful foliage. In a word it maybe said that this new double variety, which has been named "VVhirlwind." has all the free blooming and other good qualities of the Single White or Hon- orine Jobort, and the additional ones of great hardiness of plants, while the blooms are more lasting. These characteristics are decided advan- tages and ruust make a demand for it on all ornamental grounds. Strong plants ready for blooming, each 25 cts.; 3 for 60 cts.; 6 for $1.10; 1 doz. for $2.00.
