 rotted manure and give plenty of 

 water. 20e per pkt. 



Dainty New Cosmos,

 — like crimson velvet. The flowers 

 measure two inches across and the 

 plants do not grow nearly as tall as 

 the other varieties. The fully op- 

 ened flowers turn a lighter shade of 

 red, so that there seems to be two 

 kinds of flowers on the same plant, 

 giving a striking effect. 25c per pkt-

 ties of Cosmos, 50e.

There is much satisfaction to the 

 amateur in growing Coleus from

 rapidly and is sure to give many 

 pretty varieties. This seed is a mix- 

 ture of the Fringed, Sunset and 

 other beautifully marked strains. 15c

 year. It bears panicles of very large 

 pinkish-mauve flowers, and is very 

 beautiful and stately. 20 cts pkt.

 Monarch."
