NDERSON’S 
New Giant-Climbing 
HYBRID 
NASTURTIUMS. 
A new section obtained by a French 
specialist by artificial hybridizing, and 
distinguished by dark-colored foliage 
and flowers of a richness and variety 
of coloring not to be found in any of 
the different classes of Nasturtiums 
heretofore grown. There have already 
been produced twenty-two different 
colors or combinations of ceclors in 
these new hybrids, including various 
shades of rose, salmon, bright red. pale 
yellow, ete., either self-colored or spot- 
ted, mottled, striped and margined. 
For covering trellises, fences, arbors, 
piazzas, trailing from vases, over 
rock-work, etc., nothing can equal 
the gorgeous effect produced by their 
marvelous quantities of bloom borne 
in uninterrupted splendor from early 
summer until cut down by frost. 
Their ease of culture and rapidity of 
luxuriant growth, 12 to 15 feet high, 
render them worthy of great popu- 
larity. Giant Hybrid Climbing 
Nasturtiums, Mixed Colors. (See 
cut.) Per packet, 10c.; per oz., 25c.;

“‘Please send me your best mixed 
Nasturtium seed, the large kind, Giant- 
Flowering. Ihad this same kind last 
year and they produced the most 
wonderful amount of blossums, all 
summer Jong, till the last were frozen 
on the vines. The size of flowers and 
magnificent coloring were the wonder 
of all our friends. Nothing could 
have been more satistactory.’—S. E. 
THOMPSON, 450 E. 166th Street, N. Y. 
City. 
“The Climbing Nasturtiums I ob- 
tained from you last season were the 
most beautiful anyone has ever seen 
around here.’’—CHA8s. BASKERVILLE,

HENDERSON’S 
New Giant-Flowering 
Tom Thumb or Bedding 
NASTURTIUMS. 
These Grand Bedding Nasturtiums have 
been developed through years of careful hybridiza- 
tion, culture and selection under conditions thor- 
oughly congenial to the highest development of this 
popular garden annual. Not only have the flowers 
increased wonderfully in size, often measuring three 
inches across, but a great variety of new and charm- 
ing combinations of colors has been produced, 
while the brilliancy and velvety richness of the solid 
colored sorts have been greatly enhanced. Wecan- 
/ not attempt to describe the exquisite blendings and 
markings of the vari-colored varieties, for they are 
limitless. We can only say that this mixture of 
Giant-flowering Tom Thumb Nasturtiums contains 
seed saved from the largest-flowering, most beautiful 
and varied collection ever sent out. Forsummer 
flower-beds nothing in the floral kingdom can 
surpass them; the plants form perfect mounds 
about one foot high by one foot across, and are 
fairly sheeted with blossoms. Seed sown in the open 
ground in the spring will produce plants that 
commence blooming during early summer and con- 
. tinue untilsevere frosts. They are thrifty, luxuriant 
. growers, of the easiest possible culture, and are 
never troubled with insects. (See cut.) :

‘“‘The Giant Nasturtium seed sent me last year 
did splendidly. I never saw larger or more beau- 
tiful blooms, or more of them. They were the 
admiration of all who saw them.’—J. WM. BoyD,

NEW amnean HYBRID CLIMBING NASTURTIUMS, 
Trailing .. 
_ Nasturtium 
This is a very distinet type. The foliage, flowers and habit 
of the plants differ from all other Nasturtiums. The vines 
grow only two feet long, with no tendency to climb. The 
leaves are leathery and dark green. The flowers are smaller 
than those of ordinary Nasturtiums, but are borne in greatest 
profusion. The colors are yellow with citron blotches, scarlet, 
and orange blotched red. They are peculiarly adapted as 
trailers for vases, window boxes, hanging baskets, rock-work, 
embankments, etc. (Seecut.) 2d5c. per oz Pkt.10
