This superb Nasturtium attracts instant attention by the great size 
and the exquisite form and rich color of the flowers. It is the largest Nas- 
turtium that has ever yet been offered. The flowers measure 3% to 3% 
inches in diameter, the petals 14% inches across. When the blossoms first 
unfold they have a most beautiful crinkled, crepe-like look that is very 
attractive and when well opened they retain much of the crepe-like effect. 
The petals overlap and the flowers are exquisitely formed. Thecoloris a 
splendid rich brilliant yellow. They are very effective for vases, keeping 
for several daysin water. 10c per pkt.

A fitting companion and a fine contrast to the beautiful crinkled 
flower Jupiter, is Saturn, a variety with large ‘round smooth petals in 
shades of brightest tawny red, like rich velvet. The two upper petals are 
almost black at their base, the calyx bright yellow, which brings the dark 
pleaming red and black into fine relief. Both of the above are fine for 
cutting. 10c per pkt:
