Doubk-FWring Mignonette, ^^Red Goliath/^
This is the grandest Mignonette ever produced for garden culture, of stocky, candelabra habit, strong growth,
luxuriant foliage, healthy and deep-rooting. The average spikes of flowers are immense, measuring G to 8 inches
long by 2M inches in diameter, and ai-e compactly filled with giant floret.s,
measuring ij inch across and packed full, even in the centre, with
anthers or three times as many as the older Mignonettes contain,
consequently this variety is correctly called a double Mignon-
ette. The color of the florets — flre red — is strengthened on
account of the density of the florets and spikes, thus pre.sent-
ing almost solid columns of brilliant red, effectively con-
trasted against the healthy, rich green foliage. The fra-
grance is delightfully rich and powerful. For cutting
It is perfection, remaining fresh for 8 to 10 davs In water

"Machct's Perfection'* Mignonette.
Broad, enormous spikes of very fragrant red flowers
on strong and graceful stems, dressed with vigorous foli-
age, evenly branched and of a continuous-blooming
habit, much the superior of its type; one of the best
for either garden or pot culture Pkt. 10
'^Moon Flower Vine.
.Ipomea Grandiflora Noctifiora.)
No one who has a trellis or arbor to cover should
neglect to plant The Moon Flower — the most rapid-
growing of all annual climbing vines. The vines are literally
covered with thousands of immense, pure white fragrant flowers,
opening in the evening and remaining open until noon the fol-
lowing day, and if cloud.v, all day, many of them measuring orcr
seven inches across. Planted in rich ground, in a sunny situa-
tion, and given plenty of water, the vines attain a height of
seventy-five feet '. Pkt. 10

Imperial Japanese
MORNING GLORIES.
We introduced these grand climbers and they
have proved a revelation to many. The robust
vines attain a height of from thirty to fifty feet.
The foliage is luxuriant, distinct and varied,
green, silvery and yellow leaves; many are mot-
tled light and dark green, white and gray.
Bat the surpassing charm of these "Imperial
Japanese Morning Glories" lies in the entranc-
ing beauty and gigantic size of the flowers; they
measure from fpur to five inches across. The
colors of the flowers, shadings and markings are
linfitless. Some flowers are of deep, rich, velvety
colors, others daintily tinted and shaded. There
are reds from .soft rose to crimson and garnet;
daintiest blue to purple; snow-white to silver-
gray. Some are striped, blotched and spotted ;
others have magnificent edges and throats. (See

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
