COME flowers we love because of 

 **-* their daintiness; others we ad- 

 mire because of their color or fra- 

 grance or both; and still other flowers 

 simply claim all the enthusiasm, admir- 

 ^ ation, etc., of which we are capable. 



Such flowers you will find to be 



Giant Mallow Marvels 



Wonderful creations of the hardy plant world 

 that will thrive anywhere where corn will grow. 

 While they reach greatest perfection in moist soils 



and swampy ground, we have seen them grow gorgeously even in dry 



situations where, however, they prefer some shade. 



The plants grow from five to six feet tall, forming stiffly erect bushes. The 

 substantial branches carry flowers of remarkable size, five to eight inches across, 

 from mid- July until frost. Notwithstanding their great size, the flowers are dainty 

 and delicate, an ornament to any vase. 



We offer Mallow Marvels in pink, white and red, separately, at 40c. each, 

 $4.00 per doz.; $25.00 per 100, for two year old plants. Crimson Eye, strong 

 two year old plants, 25c. each; $2.50 per doz.; $14.00 per 100. 



This is THE Month to Actually 



Plant that Hardy Border! 



Perennial plants are now at rest, having made 

 their full season's growth. October is the ideal month 

 to plant the earliest flowers of Spring — many of 

 those we send will bloom in seven months from now. 



This is also an eleventh hour reminder that bulb 

 planting is in order. If you are in doubt what to 

 plant, address our Landscape Department. If you 

 need Tulips, Daffodils, Hyacinths, etc., please re- 

 member us as the largest retail bulb merchants in 

 America. 



Special Offer

We will forward, not prepaid,

 distinct kinds of our selections, 

 with a few Mallow -Marvels
