n OUR SPECIALTY. HONEST SEEDS. Best in Kind. Best in Quality. MARKET GARBENERS. Our specialty, as above stated, is of particular importance to you. We aim to furnish seeds that are reliable. We do not claim, or expect to reach perfection, but we will get as near to it as constant care will enable us to do. We know what your requirements in the Seed Line are, and our stock is kept up to a standard that will admit of your purchasing of us with con- fidence. If you wish to aid us in our endeavors, give us your trade, and thereby encourage and build up a place in Boston where you can feel safe in buying your seeds. There is no need of sending your money to other cities and towns for them. We can furnish them as choice as you can find elsewhere, and for the same quality, at as reasonable prices. We make no endeavor to cut prices for the purpose of underselling others, and then buy seeds that will admit of such method of dealing; but we first look to quality, this being of the first importance. It matters little what the seeds cost, it is the quality, and the desired result of their use, that you hope for and expect, and this result we intend to assist you to get from the use of our seeds. After quality comes prices, and these we feel sure you will take no excep- tions to if good seeds you are determined to have. Many thanks to those who have given us their trade. We want more of the same kind. Speak kindly of us to your friends. f ABMEE5, mmim, auq laii gabbshebs. What we have said to the Market Gardeners, above, will also apply to you. We know wants, and that for your special requirements you need just as good seeds as others. Keeping our stock up to the Market Garden- ers’ standard, we feel sure it will satisfy you, as no one knows better than they do w’hat good seeds are. If you do not expect perfection, we will endeavor to please you if you give us the opportunity. MR. GEORGE P. FOGG, for many years connected with the Seed Business in Bos- ton, and especially well known as a former proprietor of the Quincy Hall Seed Store, may be found at our store, 34 South Market Street. He extends a cordial invitation to liis friends and former patrons to call on him at their convenience. .. CATALOGUE AND Retail Price-List OF VEGETABLE and FLOWER SEEDS, HERB, TREE, AND GRASS SEEDS, SEED GRAIN, AND BIRD SEEDS, FLOWER ROOTS, &C. OFFERED FOR SALE BY EVERETT & GLEASON, Importere and Wholesale and Retail Dealers in American ^ Foreign Garden ^ Agricultural Seeds, WAREHOUSE, 34 SOUTH MARKET ST., BOSTON, MASS. ^TO PURgflAgERg:^ j^T gives us pleasure to present herewith our Catalogue and general Retail Price-List of A Garden, Agricultural, and other Seeds. We ask for it your kind attention, and hope that T on looking it through you will notice many varieties of Seeds you need, find our prices satisfactory, and be pleased to favor us with your orders. Our Stock is excellent in every respect ; the varieties the choicest and best in cultiva- tion; and having been carefully grown, for the most part, from our own stocks, and fliose of our growers having our approval, we do not hesitate to express our belief that no better or more reliable stock is to be found in this country. We invite particular attention to our lists of Vegetables and Flowers, which, freed from the incumbrance of undesirable sorts, are much easier to make selections from than from longer lists where poor and worthless varieties are intermingled with the good and valuable. The varieties of Vegetables have been selected for their general excellence and profit, suited alike for Market Gardeners’ and Family uses; the Flowers as the most ornamental and beautiful, adapted to the wants of Florists, Amateurs, and Home Culture generally. Selection of Seeds. In the selection of Seeds, we beg to remind purchasers of the very great importance of their selecting only the choicest and best to be obtained, as from these only can the most satisfactory returns be expected. Seeds grown from stock not prop- erly selected, and without proper attention during and after their growth, in order to make them Low-Priced or CheaPy are unsafe to touch, and should never be used when reliable Seeds are possible to obtain. The result of using the best is satisfaction and profit ; the use of the cheap (in by far the majority of cases) is dissatisfaction and loss. The extra care and attention required to produce the besty necessarily entails slightly advanced prices over the cost of the common, but these are largely overbalanced and repaid by the increased value of the crop. About Warraniinf;. Notwithstanding the greatest care is taken by us to have all our Seeds of the best quality, we do not warrant them, and this because of failures that are liable to occur, over which we have no control, and which we cannot be responsible for, such as imperfect planting, unsuitable condition of the soil (either too dry, cold, or wet), workings of worms and insects, too hot manures, botanical changes of crossed varieties, etc., either of which are quite possible to occur, while at the same time it would be utterly impossible for us to account for the occurrence, and thus failures arise through no fault on our part. We therefore wish it distinctly understood that Seeds sold by us we do not warrant in any RESPECT, and sales will not be made except on this condition. At the same time we shall not sell, or allow to be sold from our store, Seeds of any kind or quality attached to which is a doubt that they are otherwise thi^ as w’e recommend them, or that we would not plant if they were required for our own use. TERMS: Our Terms are Net Cash. All Bills on which short credits are allowed are due the hrst of the month succeeding the date of purchase. Bills on which longer time is desired must be provided for by special agreement. Our Prices. We have made our prices as low as Seeds of the same quality can be afforded, and shall adhere to present quotations as closely as possible ; but should a scarcity, or other condition of the market, necessitate changes, we reserve the right to make such changes without notice. Our customers may be assured, however, that we shall as readily accord them the benefit of all reductions, as any advances we may be compelled to make. All quotations, we wish it understood, are for the 6^s( quality of the variety quoted, unless otherwise specially mentioned. Varieties, particularly Clover and Grass Seeds, Bird Seeds, Onion Sets, and Seed Potatoes, in which fluctuations of prices arc quite likely to occur, and which are not quoted, will be furnished at the market rate (for goods of like quality) at the time orders are filled. Orders. Orders from known correspondents (cash or accepted credit) will at all times receive our careful and prompt attention. Orders from unknown correspondents will receive equal attention if accompanied by a remittance for the amourjt of the order ^ or satisfactory references. Bemittances. Remittances may be made by Post Office Money Order, Bank Draft, \ Registered Letter, or for amounts less than Two Dollars, in Bank Bills, at our risk. For fractional parts of a dollar, postage stamps may be sent. Se«d8 by Mail. As Seeds can be sent by Mail to all parts of the United States, at the rate of One Cent for Each Ounce, no person who wishes our Seeds need be without them (see our remarks on Orders and Remittances above, and write for what is wanted.) We send all Seeds ordered at Ounce or Packet prices, Free.’ Seeds at Pound prices, and Peas, Beans, Corn, Clover Seed, Seed Grain, Roots, etc., we do not send free, as these are quoted at net prices at store. Purchasers desiring these by mall are requested to remit an additional amount sufficient to cover the postage, at the rate of sixteen cents per pound, or THIRTY CENTS PER QUART. Particular attention is invited to this, as, when omitted, the amount will be deducted from that received. Address, etc. Persons ordering Seeds by mail are requested to be particular to write their own name, and also the names of their Town, Post Office, County and State, plainly, and not to omit either, as serious delays are occasioned by such omissions. If Seeds ordered are not received within a reasonable time thereafter, notice should be sent us, so that the delay may be accounted for and remedied at once. Used in Packiii];;. Clover and Grass Seed Bags, and Bird Seed Sacks, are not returnable. Others sent out on general Seed orders, at our regular prices, will be received at the same rates if returned sound and in good condition, within thirty days from date of sale. This agreement is void if the bags are used for other purposes before RETURNING. MEALY BaGS ARE NOT RECEIVED AT ANY PRICE.

SPECIAL LIST OF This list comprises recently introduced varieties, some quite new, and others older, of which brief descriptions are given. BEAN. TALL TRANSYLVANIAN BUTTER. A new running variety from Germany, described as robust growing, excellent and produc- tive, with very long, broad, fleshy, and stringless pods. Per Packet, 15 cents. BEAN. DWARF GOLDEN WAX. Not new, but until recently Us merits were comparatively unknown. It is a most excel- lent variety, either for Market Gardeners’ or Family use. It is the earliest and most prolific of the Dwarf Wax-Pod sorts, producing larger pods, creamy white in color, which are very tender, stringless, and fine flavored. It is also good for green shelling, and as a dry Bean for later use. Per Packet, 10 cts. | Per Quart, 30 cts. 1 Per Bushel, $7.00- BEAN. YELLOW ETAMPES SOJA. Of the Soja sorts this is the best for culinary purposes, having a fine flavor, cooks well, and is very nutritious. It is used and cooked the same as other Beans, either green or dry. The plant grows about twenty inches high, and yields enormously. It is also useful for fodder for stock. Per Packet, 15 cents. CABBAGE. VERY EARLY ETAMPES. A new French variety, recommended as the best of all early varieties. Per Packet, 15 cents. CABBAGE. LITTLE PIXIE. Not new, but a very excellent and very early variety, heads very hard, and good in quality. Fine for Marketing and for Family use. Per Packet, 10 cts. 1 Per Ounce, 25 cts. CELERY. CRAWFORD’S HALF DWARF. This variety is grown very extensively by the Market Gardeners around New York, who give it the preference to all other varieties. It blanches well, is very solid, has a fine nutty flavor, and is a good and vigorous grower. It does not tiller or have side shoots like the Boston Market variety, and by some is preferred on that account. Per Packet, 15 cents. | Per Ounce, 50 cents. SPECIAL LIST OF VEGETABLE SEEDS. CEIiEBY. GOLDEN DWARF. A very distinct variety, also largely grown by the Market Gardeners around New York city for that market. In size and habit it is much like the other Half Dwarf kinds, except that when blanched, the heart, which is large and full, is of a waxy, golden yellow, rendering it a most striking and showy variety. It is very solid, of most excellent flavor, and one of the very best keepers during winter known. Per Packet, 16 cents. 1 Per Ounce, 60 cents. CORN. EXTRA EARLY MARBLEHEAD SWEET. This is an eight-rowed, flesh-colored, very early variety ; claimed by the introducer to be fully a week earlier than any of the early sweet varieties at present in use. The plant is of dwarf habit; ears of medium size, and set low down on the stalk. Per Packet, 15 cts, 1 Per Quart, 40 cts. | Per Peck, $2.00. CORN. MARBLEHEAD MAMMOTH SWEET. This is an excellent sort for family use or for marketing, very sweet, and is the earliest of the large varieties, a very valuable quality, as most of the large varieties are late. The ears are very large, and have been found to weigh, fresh from the stalk, two and three pounds each. Per Packet, 10 cts. 1 Per Peck, $1.50. CUCUMBER. WHITE SPINE. (For Forcing.) This is a very choice selection of the true Early White Spine variety, so largely grown under glass during winter, for the Boston market. It is not only excellent in quality, but is also the most profitable variety for winter forcing that has thus far been introduced, yielding in experienced hands, with best culture, immense crops. Per Packet, 10 cts. | Per Ounce, 25 cts. | Per Pound, $3.00. DANDELION. PARIS VERY EARLY. A new variety of French Dandelion, recommended as making a very early growth; especially suitable for Market Gardeners, and forcing under glass. Per Packet, 10 cents. | Per Ounce, 75 cents. MUSKMELON. IMPROVED HACKENSACK. An exceedingly fine Melon in every respect; of good size, round, flattened at the ends, skin green, and roughly netted; flesh green, sweet, rich and delicious. A splendid variety either for Marketing or for Family use. Per Packet, 5 cts. 1 Per Ounce, 15 cts. | Per Pound, $1.60. MELON. SURPRISE. A very excellent variety, recently introduced. It has a thin cream-colored skin, thickly netted; the flesh is of a deep salmon color, very thick, and of exquisite flavor. It is also a good bearer, is round in shape, and of good size. Per Packet, 10 Cts. | Per Ounce, 20 cts. | Per Pound, $1.50. SPECIAL LIST OF VEGETABLE SEEDS. ONION. DANVERS THICK YELLOW. We have no new variety under this title to offer, but we wish to ask special attention to the very excellent stock of this kind offered in our general list. It is conceded by the best onion growers for the Boston market, that no seed grown gives better or more satisfactory results than the true Buxton stock as selected by Mr. Buxton for many years past. We offer seed of his own growing, and also seed grown from his stock by one of our best growers. Price, see page 13. Special Prices on application, if wanted in quantity. PEA. AMERICAN WONDER. This new and excellent variety is a seedling, the result of a cross between the favorite and well known sorts, Champion of England and Little Gem. It combhies all the good qual- ities of both its parents, with the additional ones of superiority in flavor to the Champion, and of greater pro- ductiveness than the Little Gem, besides being earlier than any of the wrinkled varieties. Planted on good soil, each vine will average twelve pods, and each pod six peas. The vine grows from eight to twelve inches high, and on good soil, if not planted too thickly, branches at the joints, forming little bushes, literally covered and almost hidden with pods. In planting, to obtain the best results, the rows should be much closer than for the general varieties of Early Peas, and the Peas should be more thinly or sparsely distributed in the rows. Good soil, not too dry, suits them best. Per Packet, 20 cts. I Per Quart, 75 cts. | Per Peck, $5.00. PEA. TELEPHONE. This is a new English variety, and is said to have won more prizes than any other Pea of modern introduction. It is a green wrinkled sort, pods long and large, containing nine to eleven peas, which are of exquisite sugary flavor. Vines are of medium height, and yield enormously. Per Packet, 15 cts. | Per Quart, 50 cts. SQUASH. COCOANUT. This is a small-sized, ornamental, as well as useful variety, being creamy white in color, with a spot of deep green on the blossom end about three inches in diameter. It is very pro- lific, and the Squashes are fine grained, very sweet, and rich flavored. Per Packet, 10 cts. 1 Per Ounce, 25 cts. SPECIAL LIST OF VEGETABLE SEEDS. SQUASH. PERFECT GEM. An excellent variety, equally desirable cither as a summer or winter variety. As long keepers, we have kept them a year in fine condition. The vine is a strong grower, and has been known to yield as many as twenty Squashes on a single vine. The Squashes are round, four to six inches in diameter, creamy white in color, and dry, sweet and rich flavored when cooked. Per Packet, 10 eta. | Per Ounce, 25 cts. SPINACH. LONG STANDING. A new variety, with thick dark green leaves and compact growth. Recommended as three weeks later in running to seed than other sorts — a quality greatly desired, and gives to this variety a special value, particularly to Market Gardeners. Per Ounce, 10 cts. | Per Pound, 60 cts. TOMATO. EARLY ALPHA. Probably the earliest variety in cultivation ; fruit of bright red color, generally smooth, sometimes slightly ribbed; ripens well, seldom cracks; solid, fine flavored, and produces abundantly. Per Packet, 16 cents. TOMATO. ESSEX HYBRID. It is claimed by the introducer of this variety, and seems to be sustained by tests, that this is the handsomest shaped and most profitable Tomato for the market in cultivation, and will bear more marketable fruit than any other variety. It is very early, solid, rich-flavored, large in size, grows perfectly smooth, of a bright pink color, and is extremely productive. It possessesjnore of the important qualities of a perfect Tomato than any other known sort. It ripens all over alike, leaving no green spots around the stem, so objectionable in some other varieties. It is fine for growing under glass, the fruits being uniformly of the best quality. TRY IT. Per Packet, 10 cts. 1 Per Ounce, 60 cts. TOMATO. “MAYFLOWER.” This new variety, introduced from Vermont, is recommended as the earliest large Tomato cultivated, ripening but a few days later than the very early variety, “ Little Gem,*’ and aver- aging in size about one third larger than “Acme.” It is of a glossy, bright red color, so desirable in a market Tomato, and ripens as evenly and perfectly up to the stem that it pre- sents a most beautiful appearance. Its shape is perfect, globular, slightly flattened, and per- fectly smooth; flesh solid, unusually free from seeds, and of rich, excellent flavor. In productiveness it is not excelled by any other sort, and is an excellent shipper, bearing a large amount of handling without injury. Per Packet, 25 cents. TOMATO. LIVINGSTON’S PERFECTION. This variety is described by its originator a.s the largest early sort known, of blood-red color, perfectly smooth, with few seeds, ripens all over and through at the same time, a good shipi)cr, and for canning purposes is not excelled by any other. It is larger than Acme, and earlier than Acme or Paragon. Per Packet, 15 cts. I Per Ounce, 50 cts. SPKCIAL LIST or YEGETABLK SEEDS. TOMATO, PBESIDENT GARFIELD. A new variety, originating in Servia, and described as of very luxuriant growth and extraor- dinary fertility. The plants attain a large size and require plenty of room. The fruits are of enormous size (weighing from two to three pounds in full-grown specimens), ripen quite evenly, have but few seeds, are very solid, with beautiful tender flesh, the flavor of which is delicious. Per Packet, 25 cents. TURNIP. VERY EARLY PURPLE-TOP MUNICH. A new flat-shaped variety, with white flesh, skin white under ground and purple red above. Its special value consists in its earliness, which is remarkable, being two to three weeks earlier than any other variety, a quality which admits of much later fall sowing with certainty of crop than the common fall sorts, as well as useful for very early crops. Per Packet, 10 cents. | Per Ounce, 30 cents. BLUNT^S PROLIFIC CORN. FOR ENSILAGE. After another year’s trial of this corn for ensilage purposes, we can confldently state that it has given very great satisfaction wherever used, yielding immense crops of forage of the best quality. Bearing in its general appearance so close a resemblance to the Southern White Flat or Dent Corn, purchasers are liable to be mislead and purchase the latter, as it sells for a much less price ; consequently those who have had the misfortune to fall into this error are unable to appreciate its superiority over the common varieties ; once, however, the true is had, the difference is seen at once. If not planted too thickly, it attains in good soil a height of twelve to fifteen feet. The quantity of seed required per acre, to secure the best results, remains undetermined as yet, the quantities so far used ranging from half a bushel to one and a half, and in some cases two bushels, to the acre. Nearly all growers approve of rows three feet apart; but in the row some prefer sowing thickly, while others prefer the plants to stand six inches apart, thereby gaining more healthy leafage and stronger plants, that will stand against wind. Per Bushel, $2.50. RUSSIAN WHITE OATS. The Russian White Oats are prolific without parallel, yielding with ordinary cultivation jone hundred bushels per acre. They are now being tested in nearly every State of the Union, and the reports thus far are unanimous in commending them as the heaviest yielding variety at present known. They are extremely hardy, enduring the coldest climate in our country without injur>', and are absolutely rust proof. They tiller wonderfully ; from twenty-five to forty stalks are produced from a single seed, the heads of grain measuring from sixteen to twenty-two inches in length. The straw is large, and strong enough to support these enormous heads. The grain is heavy and the chaff light, so that a bushel weighs considerably more than a bushel of ordinary oats. The variety, without doubt, is destined when more widely known, to become the standard sort. Per Bushel, $2.00. EVERETT & GLEASON’S :FS.ICE!-XiIST Vegetable § Agricultural Seeds. -Me 1 S S S In the following lists, it has not so much been our purpose to offer the largest number of varieties, as to offer those select varieties that have proved most valuable, and can be depended on to give a satisfactory return when properly treated. Of their good cpialily wc desire to give the most ample assurance that our best efforts have been devoted to their careful selection, to the end that they may prove reliable, and what they purport to be.

This is a valuable grain and fodder producing plant, particularly for very hot and dry climates. It will make a crop on poorer land and with less moisture than any other grain. Tested with Indian Corn or Maize, through weeks of dry weather, without rain, the results proved that while the Maize dried up and perished, the Egyptian Corn continued to grow apparently as well as if no drought prevailed. The grain is small i and white, matures in about lOO days, and is useful as food for man, animals, and fowls. The yield of grain, usually 75 to 100 bushels per acre, has been known to exceed 150 bushels per acre. As a forage crop it is excellent, either green or dry, and cattle are exceedingly fond of it. It grows 8 to 12 feet high, is very leafy (the Branching variety especially so), and maybe cut several times during the growing season. In habit it is similar to Broom Corn, and the culture the same. We offer two j varieties: I | White-Seeded, Common * per lb., 30 cts. , | White-Seeded, Branching, or Rural ** “ 4 ° “ , j ? HAT more can we say in praise of Flowers than others have already done ? Lit- tle more, we fear, than to recommend their culture to every person, to tlie full extent of the time andspace they can devote to them. Their brilliant and varied colors eloquently plead their own cause. Their presence gives cheerfulness to home surroundings aiid renders Parks and Public Grounds more attractive. It is not necessary to grow them largely to derive the greatest pleasure; it is the quantity well cared for, that gives this result. It is often a matter of surprise to note the success attained in their culture by those who have but little time to spare from their other duties. A little time daily works wonders, and it is often noticed that there is more real beauty and attractiveness in a few well-appointed beds near the home where con^ stantly seen, than where more is attempted at a greater distance, and not under such constant supervision. We again advise all who can, to cultivate Flowers, and whether on a large scale requiring professional assistance, or on the cottage system in beds near the house, to avoid planting more than can receive proper care, and that care just at the time when it is needed. It is not to be expected that within the prescribed limits of a Price-List full directions for the successful culture of Flowers can be given, but a few brief suggestions may be of benellt to beginners ami others but par- tially familiar with the subject, and we therefore offer the following SUGGESTIONS TO BE REMEMBERED. Successful culture depends much on various circumstances. While in some loca- tions their culture, owing to the peculiar adaptedness of the soil, climate, and other favorable conditions, is of the simplest character, in others it is quite the reverse, and success is attained only by care, skill, and close observation on the part of the cultivator ; but in this close watching day by day, the true lover of Flowers finds the greatest pleasure, constantly gaining Information, and storing up knowledge which, in succeeding years, will render success almost a certainty. The supposition should not be entertained for a moment that the purclmse of a few seeds and the placing of them in the ground, without regard to season, or charac- ter of the soil, is all that is necessary to insure an abundance of Flowers. Those who are not experienced should, as a general rule, confine their selections of varieties to the free growing Annuals, such as Asters, Balsams, Stocks, Petunias, Candytull, Phlox, Zinnia, etc., and venture but cautiously with varieties requiring delicate culture, until the habits and requirements of such are fully understood. In the selection of seeds for planting, as it takes as much time and attention to grow Flowers that are poor as those that are good, it is true economy to select the RETAIL PRICE-LIST FOR 1882. 23 best ; for, the liner and more beautiful the varieties cliosen, the greater the pleasure derived in the season of bloom. A good mellow loam, slightly sandy, Is the best for most varioMes of Flowers, Soils 80 sandy that moisture is retained with difficulty, or one that will bake easily soon after being wet, or that is retentive of moisture so as to become sodden, are unsuitable ; but if there is no alternative, and such must be used, then more care becomes necessary in planting the seed, in attention while germinating, and in the after culture of the plants. Seeds of Flowers are in general small and delicate, many nearly as fine as dust. It can be readily seen how very slender must be the littlo hair-llke sprouts from these diminutive seeds, and how surely they must fall to grow, if roughly planted, or planted in soil as dry as ashe.s, or in soil coarse and lumpy, or covered an inch or more in depth, or in soil bard underneath, or beat down by rains and firmly crusted on top. A little observation on the part of the cultivator will show how carefully they must be planted, and how gently covered with soil. It is only necessary, with many of these finest, to scatter them on the surface, the ground having been previously made light, and the whole gently and carefully pressed afterwards. If the weather is hot and dry, cover with a light mat until germination takes place. Too early planting in the open ground wlule it is cold Is a prolific source of trouble, and is to be avoided. Seeds thus planted are extremely liable to fail to germinate; or, should they start, the plants at best grow feebly, linger along, and finally drop off one by one, until another planting becomes necessary, causing much care, loss of time, and with no further advancement than if the planting had been deferred until the soil had become mellow ami warm. If early Flowers are wanted, start the seeds in the house or in a hot-beii, wliere they can grow until the weather and ground are warm, and then plant them out in the garden ; but care is requisite while in the house or hot -bed, particularly the latter, that the heat Is not so great as to injure the seed, or afterwards to burn the plants by failure to give sufficient air. Beginners in Flower Culture should procure sotne good and reliable treatise on gardening, to assist them at the outset, and afterwarils improve on the information obtained by their own experience. Flowers are classified as Annuals, Biennials, Perennials, supplemented by varie- ties requiring Greenhouse culture. Annuals grow from the seed, bloom, and perish in one season. Some half- hardy varieties of longer duration are chissed with Annuals, as they succeed treated as such. Biennials, from the seed, generally bloom the second year and then die. Some few varieties, If planted early, bloom the first year. Perennials, from the seed, bloom the second year, and every year thereafter, some perishing after three or four years, while others continue indefinitely. Seeds of Annuals may generally he expected under favorable conditions, to ger- minate in ten to twenty days. Perennial varieties are uncertain, some of the varieties remaining in the grouml for a long time before starting into growth. Experiments have proved that some have thus remained for a year from planting, and then come up thickly and made a strong growth. Purchasers of these should not make haste to complain of the quality of the seed, hut should make all due allowance for the habits of the varieties. The following list, which lias been prepared with much care, embraces the choicest species and varieties in cultivation — for the most part those that have been thor- oughly tested and have proved valuable ; while some varieties of recent introduction, promising well, have been included in the list. For Newest varieties see Special List, page 38. this Catalogue. 24 EVERETT & GLEASON’S FL0WEH SEIBS-GEMEEAL LIST.

Annual Eschscholtzia. Californica Alba Flore Pleno. From the Double Golden Yellow variety we now have this fine Double White variety, which will, no doubt, prove an acquisition. Annual 25 Gnaphalium Leontopodium (Edelweiss). This is the true Edelweiss of the Alps, so much prized by tourists in Switzerland. The plant is dwarf; flowers pure while, star-shaped and downy. Perennial .30 Gnapbalium decurrens. A perennial, forming a dense, compact, branch- mg bush, about twelve inches high, out of which rise numerous heads of white flowers in dense clusters. It can be treated as an annual, as it comes to perfec- tion the first season when sown early. The neat globular flowers are sure to be- come great favorites amongst Everlastings, being more elegant than Antennaria, used so extensively at present — while, at same time, the plant is of easy growth . .60 Larkspur. Double Stock Flowered “Lustrous Carmine.** An entirely new color of the Annual Branching Larkspur, far surpassing in beauty most of the colors heretofore obtained. It is of a fiery or lustrous carmine and very brilliant Lobelia Erinus Grandiflora Duplex atroccerulea.

One of the grandest new introductions from California, noble foliage and stalely white flowers. Annual 26 Megarrhiza californica. A new, very rapid growing cucurbitacea of ele- gant habit and handsome appearance, very rapid in growth, attaining a length of twenty to thirty feet in one season. The leaves have a beautiful silvery gloss, flowers small, in slender racemes, while the oblong-shaped fruits, about two inches long, are densely covered with stout spines similar to those of Echinocyslis lobata. The plant develops fully, grown as an annual, but can be cultivated as a peren- nial, as it produces long and large tuberous roots Large Seeds — each .15 Molucella Leevis (Shell Flower). An old plant, but comparatively little known. Its singular habit and curiously formed shells are quite attractive, and it should always have a place among the novelties of the Flower Garden. Annual FansjT) £ugnot*s Paris International. A superb strain, comprising the most beautiful of the magnificent varieties exhibited by Mr. Bugnot, a cele- brated cultivator, on the grounds of the late Paris Exhibition 60 Pansy. **Snow Q,ueen»** A new variety, recommended as reproducing itself very true from seed. Its color is a delicate saiinv-white, with a tinge of yellow in the centre. A very useful and desirable variety for bouquet work or bedding . . .26 Papayer Umbrosum.

A beauiiful variety, with large flowers finely fringed Petunia Hybrida, New Dwarf Inimitable. A new dwarf vane»y, each plant forming a compact and densely-branched bush, five to eight inches high by as much in diameter, and a remarkably profuse bloomer. The flowers begin to open when the plants are but three inches high, and are of a brilliant cherry- red, each one marked with a regularly formed white star Primula Sinensis Fimbriata “Vesuvius.” A magnificent Primula. The rich brilliant crimson-scarlet flowers are of immense size, elegantly fringed and of great substance. Superb Primula Sinensis Umbellata Alba. A fine new, robust growing Prim- ula, very floriferous, and produced in umbels Primula Sinensis Cristata Nana Alba. This is a highly interesting and distinct French race. The plant is of a dwarf and deiise habit of growth, with foliage crimped or curled like Malva Crispa. Its charming flowers, of snow- white with a pale yellow eye, are acutely dentated and show a tendency to become double Pyrethrum Aureum Selaginoides. The flat foliage of this charming new and distinct variety resembles two fronds of a species of Fern, overlaying each other; a peculiarity which gives to the dwarf and compact plant a particu- larly fine and even appearance. The fact of its not flowering the first year, is a great recommendation, as the constant pinching back so necessary with the • variety P. Aureum, is entirely obviated. It cannot fail to become a most popular variety . . . . . Reseda Odorata, Golden Queen. An attractive and distinct variety of Mignonette, of dense pyramidal habit of growth. It throws up very numerous flower-stalks, terminated by spikes of golden yellow blossoms, which, with the bright green foliage of the plant, forms a pleasing contrast Reseda Odorata, Galloway’s White. A true white variety of Mig- nonette, recommended as the best pure white yet introduced Salvia Farinacea. This will doubtless become a general favorite. The plants from early sown seed begin to bloom as early as July, the flowers of a light blue on erect spikes nine to eighteen inches long, and not only the flowers, but the wooly-haired bracts, colored from light to dark blue, which keep on for months, constitute a large portion of the beauty of the plant. One of the showiest and most useful blue-flowering Annuals Stock, Ten Weeks, New Giant Perfection. Splendid race of pyramidal growth, with long spikes of beautiful large double flowers. Height two and one half feet. Very fine for open ground culture. White and enmson mixed Sunflower. “ Oscar Wilde.** The famous Newport Covsa« Sunflower.

The plant is dwarf and pyramidal in form, flowers arc small, with jet black centre surrounded with an overlapping row of broad, deep, golden yellow petals, and are produced in the greatest abundance from June until killed by frost. Viola Odorata, Munbyana. A fine novelty among violets, recommended as hardy, very free blooming, and excellent for edging RETAIL PRICE-LIST FOR 1882. 41 Tropseolum, Tom Thumb “Empress of India.” This new vari- ety IS of dwarf, compact habit, like “ King of Tom Thumbs,” witfi dark tinted lotmge, and flowers of deep brilliant crimson, but much deeper and richer than in the variety just named.

The following magnificent varieties, taken either together or separately, are worthy a place in any collection, however choice and select it may be.

A tender bulbous plant of the easiest culture, suitable for the summer garden, or for house forcing throughout the year. For gardens in warm latitudes they may be planted in spring, when danger of frost is past, in good soil, well enriched with fine old cow manure or rich compost, setting the bulbs six to ten inches apart and slightly under the surface. Where the growing season is short, they must be started in pots in the bouse, and afterwards turned out into the borders when the weather is settled and warm. The bloom commences in twelve to fourteen weeks from planting, and usually consists of fifteen to thirty flowers, which arc pure white and very fragrant. Each. Doz. Hund. Double Dwarf, Dear!, splendid variety, extra flowering bulbs . . 10 $1.00 $0.00 Double Dwarf, Pearl, good flowering bulbs 8 .76 6.00 DAHLIA. Of summer flowering plants the Dahlia is one of the best, and justly termed the glory of the autumn garden. Being tender, the planting should be deferred until the weather has become settled and warm in spring, and the roots taken up before frosts set in, in autumn. One shoot only should be allowed to a plant, and each plant should be sup- ported by a stout slake during the growing season. The varieties are divided into three classes. The *\Sh(nv'' and '■'Fancy'"* are la^e-flowering, ami the plants vary in height from three to six feet. The "Bouquet'' "Lilliputian," or ** Pompon" have very small flowers, and are suitable for bouquets, hence the name. They are often very erroneously termed "Dwarf" which leads at times to much disappointment, as the plants vary from three to six or more feet in height. Dahlias are distinct from either of the preceding, and are scarce and not easily obtained. The flowers are as large as the Show varieties, but the plants are very stocky and short-jointed, and seldom exceed two or two and a half feet in height. Of this class (strictly true) there are as yet but very few colors. Each. Doz. Show and Fancy, Double, choice colors, assorted 15 $1.50 Bouquet, Lilliputian, or Pompon 15 1.50 Dwarf, or Tom Thumb, Large-Flowering 15 1.50 MADEIIA ¥IME. A tuberous-rooted climbing plant of rapid growth, with beautiful, thick, wax-like light green leaves, and fragrant, feathery, white flowers. Its culture is simple ; the root needs but to be planted and a trellis or strings given it to climb upon. The root is tender and somewhat like a potato, and may receive the same treatment, as respects frosts, housing, etc. Each. Doz. Selected Roots 10 .75 46 EVERETT & GLEASON’S NOYES’ HAND WEEDER. This is one of the best implements ever invented for assisting where hand weeding is required — light, safe, and remarkably easy to use. Two patterns are manufactured ; one diamond-shaped, with pointed end, the other with a square end for working in very narrow the plant necessitates a drawing stroke. ''Price, 35 cents each. Per dozen, J83.50. EXCELSIOR WEEDER. A very useful implement for eradicating weeds when first starling into growth, but more especially useful (in our experience) for loosening the soil in borders, and beds where a larger tool could not be used. Price, J55 cents. FIRE-FLY HAND PLOW. This is another extremely useful little implement. Every person having a garden to care for {^particularly those too small to admit of horse adiure), should own one. The moldboard is made of steel, wearing bright and clean, and makes as perfect work for its size as an ordinary plow. With it ground can be wholly and thoroughly turned over, or furrows for planting made, and for after weeding it can be most successfully used, turning the furrows outward at one time and inward the next, and so on. Hav- ing tlioroughly tested one ourselves, we are free to say that the quality; of the work done by this little tool is surprising. Price, S4.00. RUHLMAN’S HAND CULTIVATOR. Note. — A. The cast-steel Knife, corrugated so as to be set at any angle required, C. Thumb- screw to raise or lower the handle. V. Ridged brace for supporting and regulating the handles E. Thumb-screw for regulating blade shanks. This Hoe, or Cultivator is a most valuable addition to Gar- den Implements, and without doubt the best Garden Weeder in use. It is especially adapted to the culture of all garden crops that require careful hand culti- vation, and particularly for gar- dens where horse culture cannot be allowed. It is easily regulated by set screws as to the depth of cutting, the pitch of the knife blades, and height of handles. It is easily worked, and does its work with a thoroughness that will satisfy all who try It. . ^ , . . i The frame and wheel are made of the best cast iron. The knives are the be^ cast steel. Thev can be set to work 7 to 16 inches in width. They cut the weeds only on the inside of the Icnife, so that any person can walk along within an inch of, and without injury to, the smallest or tenderest plant, which no other Cultivator can do. It will do the work of six men with common hoes. Reports from those who have given tt a trial run in this manner: It is a promising tool “ It is the best Hoe 1 ever used. Ihis « the pest Hoe in use.” “ It will pay for itself in one day.” We have no doubt that such will be the universal opinion of all who try it. Price, S5.50.

One of the most effective, simple and cheapest preparations for the preservation of Trees, Plants, Shrubs, Vines, Rose Bushes, and House and Garden Plants in general, from the ravages of Slugs, Worms, and the various other Insects that infest them. It is sold m the form of thick soap, to be diluted with water as required for use, (juite weak for tender plants, and stronger according as the hardiness of the plants will permit. For Trees, applied to the foliage, it may be stronger than for small plants, and for cleansing their trunks from Bark-Lice, Worms, and Moss, it may be used of the consistency of common whitewash, and is best applied with a whitewash brush, with syringe to aid in penetrating where the brush fails to reach. As a general rule for application to foliage, seven gallons of water to one pound of soap may be used ; but for safety the proper proportion is best ascertained by first mixing the solution, and then testing its strength before using, by immersing a single twig or branch of the kind of plants to which it is to be applied, and wait a few hours for the result. If too strong, more water should be added. If too weak, gradually add more soap until strong enough to kill the Insects without injuring the plants. Put up in neat boxes (labeled, with directions for use, etc.) containing 5 lbs. *, lOlbs. *, and in larger packages, boxes and barrels, to order. Also, smaller quantities than 5 lbs. sold in concentrated form in Bars. For Price, see page 21. TIN SYRINGES for applying the solution, $1.00. G-RAFTINQ- WAX.
