MARIGOLD COLARETTE CROWN OF GOLD 



(Gold Medal) 



An entirely new type of Marigold. The crown or top part of the 

 flower resembles a Chiysanthemum in formation and is made up of 

 long, disc petals that beautifully interlace. The crown and the colar- 

 ette of big, broad petals which surround it are of a bright, pleasing 

 shade of clear golden orange. The color holds even when the flowers 

 are old. 



The flowers of the new Colarette Marigold, Crown of Gold, are 

 slightly sweet-scented and the foMage is entirely free of that usual 

 Marigold odour, so objectionable to many. This is the first Marigold 

 in cultivation with entirely odorless foliage. Plants grow to about 

 2 feet, bloom early, and are very floriferous Pkt. 25c 



MARIGOLD 



DWARF ROYAL SCOT ALL-DOUBLE 



A new strain of dwarf striped French Marigold, 

 dwarf and bushy, every plant of a uniform shape and 

 height of about 10 inches. The color is a rich maho- 

 gany and goM in uniform stripes and every flower 

 practically all-double Pkt. 25c 



GIANT ANNUAL PHLOX 



GIGANTEA ART SHADES. A new strain with flow- 

 ers an inch and a quarter to an inch and a half in 

 diameter. In addition to its enormous flowers, it has a 

 most wonderful range of soft colors blended together 

 making a most beautiful mixture and color combina- 

 tion never before seen in Annual Phlox Pkt. 25c 



NEW MARIGOLD CHRYSANTHEMUM 

 FLOWERED HYBRIDS 



These new Hybrids consist of many new and dis- 

 tinct types of Marigolds, varying in size of bloom 

 from two to four inches in diameter. Some of these 

 types have petals which are very quilled and in- 

 curved and which remind one of miniature American 

 Beauty Asters in orange and yellow. There are also 

 the imbricated types which have from four to five 

 rows of flat petals and in the center there are many 

 small quilled florets. 



These beautiful types are quite variable and are 

 most desirable. The beautiful colors are most fascinat- 

 ing and can best be described as containing all shades 

 of orange and yellow. The plants are about three feet 

 high, supporting masses of flowers on fine stems for 



cutting. Pkt. 25c

PETUNIA DWARF ROSE REDDER 



When in full bloom, height averages 9 inches, 

 spread of 11 inches. Compact habit, dome shaped 

 plants covered with large Tyrian Rose, single flowers, 

 2^/2 inches across, with golden throat, 35 blooms and 

 partly opened buds were counted on one plant. Much 

 deeper, more compact habit than Rosy Morn. Pkt. 25c 



MARIGOLD GIGANTEA SUNSET GIANTS 



Marigold Sunset Giants have immense flowers, 

 averaging from 5 to 7V2 inches acrcss. Instead of 

 the usual MarigoM cdour the flowers have a definitely 

 sweet fragrance. They are loosely formed, very full 

 centered, with broad, heavy petals gracefully overlap- 

 ping to make a flower of great depth. The mixture 

 ranges from deep orange through golden orange, deep 

 golden, light yellow, lemon, and primrose. The strain 

 comes from 60 to 65 per cent, double. The plants are 

 normally 3% to 4 feet high, but under favourable 

 conditions grow as much as 7 feet high Pkt. 25c
