EMPEROR 



EMPEROR 



EMPEROR. PL Pat. App. For. A blaze of golden light from top to bottom, 

 this brilliantly beautiful AAMum winner is an eye-filling sight for 

 weeks in I he fall. Its buds open from a delightful bright bronze with 

 orange tints into the richest of yellows, and when fully open display a 

 fine, clear, lemon-yellow that rivals the slanting sunshine. The (lowers deck 

 the plant right down to the ground . . . each a generous bloom with a very 

 double, flat rather than ball-shaped effect — a characteristic which seems to 

 make even larger the size of the open bloom. Emperor is a vigorous grower, 

 compact and reaching medium height with a large, shapely spread. Its 

 foliage is excellent and of a lively green that combines beautifully with the 

 golden flowers. A single plant, will produce as many as six or seven huge 

 bouquets of sunny beauty for the house, with plenty of beauty left on the 

 plant. Wonderful! $1.50 ea.; 3 for $3.75. 



BURNING BRONZE 



BURNING BRONZE. PI. Pat. App. For. The glow of an inner 

 fire shines through this AAMum winner, giving you a tangv, 

 spirited splash of fall at its colorful best. The neat, 2} 2 -inch 

 blossoms open as exciting mahogany-bronze laid over a lively 

 scarlet base as artfully as Nature's painter can apply his wonderful 

 colors. When fully open, there is a medley of tangerine, bronze and 

 orange— a blaze of beauty that glows with warmth and magnetism. 

 Such flowers make marvelous cutting sprays to light the house. 

 They come in free-blooming abundance on vigorous, 2J4-f«ot plants, 

 as though anxious to please you. Try Burning Bronze this year and 

 see for yourself! 81.50 ea.; 3 for $3.75.
