ON Dwarf Mixtuh 



The Dwarf or Tom Thumb nasturtiums are 

 among our most popular plants. They resist 

 heat and drought, grow vigorously and turnish 

 an endless profusion of flowers a few weeks after 

 sown until frost. The plants form little mounds 

 1 foot high and 1 foot across, which are very 

 suitable for bedding "purposes, borders or rock- 

 eries. Besides the green -leaved sorts we are 

 offering mixtures of the ivy-leaved, variegated 

 and golden leaved varieties.

I have had such a grand success with your Prize Mixed Giant Pansy seed that 

 a triend ol mine who viewed them this summer, while in bloom, was so favor- 

 ably impressed as to ask where I got the seed. He saw some in Calilorriia wliile 

 visiting the Panama Exposition and spoke very highly in praise ol them, and 

 until he saw the lew we had raised in a haphazard sort of way, he thought that 

 there could be none that could beat them. Allow me to state that our pansies 

 bloomed incessantly from early spring until late in the fall and continued their 

 large size up to the end. John M. Bland, Louisville, Ky.
