No. 700. This is a large flowering, double, pure white, 
annual chrysanthemum. Easily raised from seed, which, if

chrysanthemum. Price, pkt., 15c.; 4 pkts., 50c.

contrast, similar to that seen in the variety Danebrog. When 
planted in groups, the Admiral Poppy produces a magnifi- 
cent effect. Per pkt., 15c.

Giant Shasta Daisy 
No. 1025. The Shasta Daisy is one of the most marvelous 
productions in the flower line that has ever been brought to 
the notice of floriculturists. It is the first of a new type, 
which has been obtained by first combining the free-flower- 
ing American species with the large but coarse European 
species and the Japanese species, Nipponicum, after which 
rigid selection through a series of years has produced the 
present wonderfully beautiful and useful strain. Its first 
qualification is hardiness; it can be grown out of doors by 
anybody, where it is not cold enough to kill oak trees. Itis. 
perennial, blooming better and more abundantly each sea- 
son. It can be multiplied rapidly by simple division, and it 
is not particular as to soil, and it blooms for several months. 
The flowers are extremely large and graceful, averaging 
about 4 to 5 inches in diameter. Pkt., 10c.
