Perennial Gaiiiardia 



These Gaillardias are one of the few flowers that can be 

 depended upon to bloom all summer and into the fall. 

 Bright and gaily-colored, they grow and make fine 

 display in any ordinary garden soil. Gaillardias have 

 recently been much improved by plant breeding result- 

 ing in wonderful new ones like Torchlight (offered be- 

 low). Gaillardias with their long flexible stems and their 

 superior lasting qualities are as valuable for cutting as 

 for garden display. The plants are easily and quickly 

 grown from seed and they often bloom the first year.

 yellow blooms having rich maroon centers. They often 

 measure 5 in. across, 2 to 2J'2 ft. tall, blooming pro-

Geranium 



Annual Gaillardias 



Pelargonium (House Plant) Geraniums are as fine for 

 bedding as they are for pot culture (and they are the 

 most popular of all house plants). If the seed is sown in 

 February or March, the little plants will be ready to 

 bloom that summer. Growing them from seed is the 

 only means of obtaining new varieties in Geraniums.

 fragrant foliage rather than the flowers. Excellent for 

 pot culture as it is easily grown. Pkt. 15c; 3 pkts. 40c.

 plants bear immense clusters of large flowers, each 

 marked with a contrasting eye in the center. Many fine 

 colors. Pkt. 15c; 3 pkts. 40c. 



1347 Double, Mixed Double-flowering varieties in 

 many showy colors: red, rose, and white. Will produce 

 some few single flowers. Pkt. 20c; 3 pkts. 55c.
