COSMOS, NEW EARLY 
NEW EARLY BLOOMING COSMOS. 
Few flowers are more highly esteemed than the beautiful Cos= 
mos. Lateness of flowering has, however, been the cause of 
serious disappointment to New England growers, frost frequently 
killing the plants before a single blossom opened. This strain is 
very early, and quitenew. The seed we offer was grown in Massa- 
chusetts, ripened and saved before the Cosmos usually grown had 
begun to flower. Seed sown at the usual time produces plants 
which blossom in July and remain in full bloom till frost. The 
flowers are large and of a variety of lovely colors. For cutting 
nothing 1s more desirable.
