HENRADRER DHIADELDHTA-DA' esc] FLOWER-SEED NOVERTIES-|[]] so 
New White Oriental Poppy 
3743 This is the most distinct ‘‘break’’ that has yet been made 
in Oriental poppies, it being a pure satiny white with a 
bold crimson blotch at the base of each petal. Like most 
hybrids the seedlings are liable to vary somewhat in color, 
but a good percentage can confidently be expected to come 
true. 25 cts. per pkt. 
New Mybrid Iceland Poppy 
3738 This beautiful strain of these charming hardy Poppies is 
being improved every year, and the stock which we offer 
this season will be found much finer than heretofore, con- 
taining a great number of lovely new shades of color. 15 
cts. per pkt.; 2 pkts., 25 cts. 
Giant Flowering Chinese Fringed 
Primula 
3791 This magnificent strain is quite distinct from the regular 
type, being of much more robust growth and producing 
immense trusses of extra large, finely fringed flowers in 
many new and novel colors; as a pot plant for the house 
or conservatory, this is unequalled.

4282 Newport Pink. A dis- 
; tinct new color in this fav- 
orite hardy plant, which 
originated in one of the 
far-famed gardens at New- 
New Wuite OrtenraLt Porry 
port, R. I. In color it is 3 s 
what florists call water- ee New Colors of 
melon-pink or salmony- tS ¥. Sr Stokesia 
rose. For mid-season mass- ‘28 @ Pa eon (Cornflower Asters) 
bedding it has no equal. 
Perfectly hardy. 
4281 Scarlet Beauty. A 
splendid companion to the 
above. The color is an 
intense rich, deep scarlet, 
and a most effective plant 
for the old-fashioned har- 
dy border, where this shade 
is very uncommon. 
Either of the above 15 cts.

4060 The blue Stokesia Cyanea, al- 
though a native of the United 
a States, was practically un- 
4 a . Ss known as a garden plant until 
Ce the year 1903, when we illus- 
trated it in colors on the cover 
of our Garden Book; and, as 
a result of our efforts, it is now 
one of the popular hardy per- 
ennials. Some years later, 2 
white-flowered variety was dis- 
covered, and now we are able 
to offer a mixture containing a number of rose shades, 
white and various shades of blue and purple as well.

VERBENA ‘‘LUCIFER” 
NEW SCARLET SAGE “AMERICA” OR 
“GLOBE OF FIRE” 
3936 We have in the last few years tested over a score of varieties of 
Scarlet Sage and believed that the sorts which we offer on page 107 
covered the most desirable. In this new variety, which was grown 
at our own Nursery, and which was easily the most brilliant bit of 
color among the acres of flowers grown there, we have what is un- 
doubtedly the earliest, freest and most continuous bloomer of all, 
and, what is still more important, the most uniform in habit of 
growth; the bushy plants do not grow over 15 inches high, with 
the spikes of brilliant scarlet flowers thrown well above the plant, 
making a total height of about 2 feet, and in the lines, several hun- 
dred feet in length, there was not a variation of an inch in the 
height of any plant; the importance of this uniformity will be ap- 
preciated by those who use Scarlet Sage for beds or borders. 
25 cts. per pkt.; 5 pkts. $1.00. 
New Mammoth Werbena “Lucifer” 
4357 A most valuable addition to the range of colors in this important 
bedding plant, being an even, intense deep cardinal-scarlet through- 
out; it is identical to our other Mammoth Verbenas in size of bloom, 
floriferousness and other good qualities. As a brilliant bed or bor- 
BASLE : der we feel sure this will be most satisfactory. 25 cts. per pkt.; 5
