 Flower Seeds 



Conditions in Europe preclude the possibility of securing flower seed 

 from that source within any reasonable time. When stocks become 

 depleted during the season, an American source of supply of undoubted 

 integrity is highly essential. 



Fordhook Farms — America's greatest and most complete trial grounds 

 — are famous for the fine.st strains of flower seeds, especially Antir- 

 rhimms. Balsams, Begonias, Celosia Plumosa, Perennial Chi-ysanthe- 

 mum, Coleus, Polichos, Gladiolus, Gourds, Heliotrope, Marigolds. Morn- 

 ing Glories, Petunias, Phlox Drummondii, Poppies, Portulaca. Salvia, 

 Sunflower, Torenia and Zinnia. 



Floradale Farm — the California home of Sweet Peas — produces in addi- 

 tion to tons of Sw'eet Pea seeds the very finest strains of Centaurea Im- 

 perialis, Cosmos, Dahlias, Delphiniums, Dimorphotheca, Eschscholtzias, 

 Hollyhocks, Marigolds, Pelargoniums, Nasturtiums, Petunia, Pentste- 

 mon and Verbena. 



Sunnybrook Farm in South Jersey has produced for a number of years 

 exceedingly fine strains of Petunia, Poppies, Dahlias, Ipomoeas and 

 Dolichos. 



With these vast quantities of flower seeds at our command, we are in a 

 position to oflFer to the trade superior stocks of seeds which have former- 

 ly been secured in Europe. When in the market for the very best 

 strains of flower seeds, kindly submit a list of your requirements for 

 quotation. 



Please bear in mind that we are in no position to ofl'er in a wholesale 

 w^ay (as we are entirely sold out) the following: Morning Glory Tall 

 Mixed, Ricinus Zanzibarensis, Marvel-of-Peru Mixed, Vincas and Thun- 

 bergia Mixed.
