Flower Seed Novelties—105 
Floral Novelties for 1908 
As usual the past year the most intelligent thought and labor has been given on both my 
Pennsylvania and New Jersey trial grounds, to the countless varieties of Floral Novelties offered 
by all prominent European and American seedsmen, with the result that 
on this and the succeeding pages will be found, I think, the choicest selec-

Basy GOLDEN GLow. 
Baby Golden Glow. 
Chrysanthemum, Golden Queen. 
A most charming annual, growing about 15 
to 18 inches high, bearing scores of bright 
yellow double flowers. Seeds should be start- 
ed indoors. The plants begin to bloom almost 
as soon as set in the open ground, affording an 
almost unlimited supply of cut flowers. One 
of the best bedders. Likened to Golden Glow 
on account of color, shape and profusion of 
‘bloom. Packet 10 cents. 
New Single Paeony Flowered Poppy, Admiral. 
This new annual poppy is of great beauty and is 
characterized by large, round flowers of glistening 
white, with a broad band of bright brilliant scarlet 
around the top of each petal. The unique combina- 
tion of these colors produces a magnificent contrast 
and is very rarely found. Packet, 10 cents.

Bellflower. 
9 (Campanula noerheimi.) 
A variety of the 
form known as Peach 
Bells. It is a magni- 
ficent perennial, per- 
fectly bardy, and will 
be welcomed by all 
lovers of its class. It 
grows about 2 feet 
high, and in June and 
July bears showy 
spikes of large, dou- 
ble, pure white flow- 
ers. The bloom is 
very striking in ap- 
pearance, making it 
one of the most beau- 
tiful of the bellflow- 
ers. It comes true 
from seed, and is 
worthy of general cul-

the spikes cannot be

ESCHSCHOLTZIA, New CRIMSON FLOWERED. 
Eschscheltzia, 
New Crimson Flowered or 
Carmine King. 
California Poppy. An absolutely new 
form of this popular flower, developed by 
Mr. Luther Burbank, by nine years of 
eareful selection. So many of my custo- 
mers have come to know and love the 
bright, cheerful, free-flowering yellow 
eschscholtzia, that I am sure this new and 
brilliant crimson novelty will be welcome 
everywhere. The color of the flower con- 
trasts in a charming manner with the 
finely cut, light green foliage, and I con- 
sider it one of the prettiest introductions 
among bedding annuals in recent years.
