CURRIE BROTHERS CO., MILWAUKEE, WIS. 



California Poppy 



GILIA 



CAPITATA (Blue Thimble Flower)— 2 feet. Beautiful bushy 

 plant of erect habit with fine feathery foliage covered all summer 

 with rich lavender-blue flowers, 1 inch across, much like Scabiosa. 

 Makes a good cut flower as the blooms last well in water. May 

 also be used as everlasting, as the flowers retain their beautiful 

 color when dried Pkt. 10c 



GAILLARDIA 



The gorgeous colors produced by Gaillardias make these flowers 

 particularly valuable for garden decoration. They show conspicu- 

 ously in borders, where the plants will remain in bloom for a long period and 

 the flowers afford charming tints for color schemes. As cut flowers, Gail- 

 lardias are extremely popular for the bold decoration of bowls and vases, 

 for which purpose they should be widely grown. All the varieties offered 

 below are, strictly speaking, perennials, but with the exception of the four 

 varieties first named, they are much better when treated as half-hardy 

 annuals.
