nown garden favorit 



{Dwarf French.) 



Well-known garden favorite of quick growth and very 

 free-flowering habit. Seed can be sown thinly in shallow 

 drills when trees are starting out in leaf, or the young 

 plants may be started in boxes of light earth in the sunny 

 window of a warm room and set in the flower bed when 

 danger of frost is over, thus producing flowers early in the 

 summer. This Dwarf French class forms ball-like bushes 

 12 to 15 inches in height, with finely-cut fern-like foliage 

 of deepest green.

PoftUjQGQt or Mexican Rose

 double flowers ; single-flowered plants can be pulled out, 

 leaving the double ones to spread over the entire surface 

 of the bed. Pkt. 5c. ; oz. $1.50. 



One of the most satisfactory 

 flowers in the whole list to grow, 

 for they will thrive in any situa- 

 tion and in any kind of soil; in 

 fact, the poorer the soil, the more 

 profusely will they bloom, as rich 

 soil tends to increase the growth 

 of the foliage rather than that of 

 the flowers. Great improvement 

 has been made of late in the size 

 and color of the flowers. They 

 run the entire gamut of colors 

 from white to black, and some of 

 the combinations are most beauti- 

 ful. One great adwantage they 

 have is that the oftener the flow- 

 ers are plucked, the "more pro- 

 fusely will they bloom. All colors, 

 fine mixed. Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c

petunia. 



The two varieties of single Petunias are 

 very distinct, one producing numerous small 

 flowers, and the other, the Grandiflora sec- 

 tion, bearing immense flowers 4 to 5 inches 

 in diameter. For bedding the former va- 

 riety is the better, but for single specimens 

 the latter gives the greatest satisfaction. They are very 

 hardy, free-flowering, and bloom from June until frost.
