NASTURTIUMS 



A marvellous range of new 

 colors lifts been developed in 

 this favorite flower, which is 

 in constant bloom throughout 

 the season, and if these are 

 kept well picked so that the 

 plant cannot produce seed 

 they will continue to flower 

 until frost. No other annual 

 flower seed will produce such 

 a lavish profusion of bloom for 

 so long a time and with the 

 same small outlay of care and 

 attention. 



Thin, poor soil, if possible, 

 disintegrated rock is the best 

 soil, as this produces the maxi- 

 mum of bloom. Soils in which 

 manure has been used heavily 

 causes the plants to produce a 

 heavy growth of leaves at the 

 expense of blossoms. They are 

 also in such soils apt to rot off 

 in wet weather, especially if 

 the plants have been left stand- 

 ing close to one another. 



You cannot have too many 

 Nasturtiums. Plant them 

 along fences, hedges or wher- 

 ever it is desired to have a 

 bunch of bright color. 



DWARF OR TOM THUMB NASTURTIUMS 



These have a neat compact habit and attractive foliage, 

 are not disturbed by insects, bloom in two months from seed, 

 and most profusely till frost.

One of our customers writes of our NASTUR- 

 TIUMS : " Your collection of Nasturtiums is the 

 finest we have ever grown. They bloom profusely 

 from early summer until fall and make our gar- 

 den gorgeous with bright coloring. The foliage 

 is remarkably beautiful." Above illustration is a 

 photof/raph taken from a bunch from this particular 

 garden.
