HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR 



GIANT COSMOS. 



The Glory of the Autumn Garden. 



These are the latest developments in this favorite autumn-flowering annual; 

 the flowers are giants, often 4 to 5 inches across. The petals are broad and 

 overlapping, and of splendid substance. For cutting this is one of the finest 

 flowers grown. The long stems and feathery foliage lend themselves to graceful 

 arrangements. The plants, 5 to 6 feet high, are of symmetrical, pyramidal form.

EARLY COSMOS, flowering. 



Unfortunately, large-flowering Cosmos do not bloom until late in the season. 

 This new early-flowering strain begins to bloom scatteringly in June, the quantity 

 increasing gradually until August, and from that time until frost the plants are 

 a mass of flowers. The flowers are smaller and the plants are dwarfer than the 

 late-flowering Cosmos offered above, forming compact bushes only 4 feet high. 

 The colors are white, crimson and pink, which we offer only in Mixed Colors.
