New Beauties for Your 1926 Garden 



A few of the finer novelties in flowers for 1926. If you would have an up-to-date garden 

 at least some of the varieties on this page should be included. 



New Spencer Sweet Pea, 

 Mary Pickford 



The finest Sweet Pea ever introduced and 

 justly deserving its name, Mary Pickford, 

 "America's Sweetheart." 



Mary Pickford is a delicate combination of 

 light and dainty cream- pink with the slightest 

 trace of salmon. The flowers are perfectly 

 formed, gracefully waved, and evenly spaced on 

 the stem. As a numbered sample, this wonderful 

 new variety received an Award of Merit from 

 the National Sweet Pea Society. Your Sweet 

 Pea Collection is not complete without it. 

 Pkt. 25 cts. 



California Giant Aster 



A superb new race of Asters that surpass, by 

 far, any previously introduced. Plants strictly 

 branching type, bearing their blooms on long, 

 strong stems. The flowers themselves leave 

 nothing to be desired. They are the same type 

 as the Crego or Ostrich Feather Aster, with long, 

 twisted, and curled petals, full double, and, 

 when well grown, 5 to 6 inches in diameter. 

 Flowers are very substantial and may be shipped 

 long distances with very little damage. Last for 

 a long time as cut- flowers. 



790 Peach Blossom. Peach- blossom pink. 



791 Light Blue. Clear light lavender- blue. 



792 Deep Rose. Rich clear rose. 



793 Deep Purple. Royal purple. 



794 Supreme Mixed. A fine mixture with the 

 same robust growth and enormous flowers 

 of the type, containing all the above and 

 many other colors not sufficiently fixed to 

 offer separately. 



Each, pkt. 25 cts.; yioz. $1 

 799 Collection: One pkt. of each of the above 

 4 colors, 90 cts. 



New Giant Single Aster 



(Single Sinensis) 



A distinct and pleasing departure from the 

 double type. Single, giant, daisy- like flowers are 

 borne profusely on long, graceful stems and all 

 have yellow centers. They not only add addi- 

 tional charm to the flower-garden, but lend 

 themselves to many pretty effects when arranged 

 as cut- flowers. 



870 Lavender. Delicate lavender. 



871 Marshal Joffre. Bright red. 



872 White. Pure white. 



Each, pkt. 10 cts.; ^ioz. 50 cts. 



Extra-Early Double Cosmos 



When the late Double Cosmos were intro- 

 duced, they were enthusiastically received by all 

 flower-lovers, but, unfortunately, due to early 

 frosts, their season of bloom was comparatively 

 short. This new Extra-Early Double Cosmos 

 gives a much longer season of bloom with the 

 same double and semi-double flowers. 



1210 Crimson King. 1212 White Queen. 



1211 Pink Beauty. 1213 Mixed. 



Each, pkt. 20 cts.; I4OZ. $1 



Mary Pickford Spencer Sweet Pea 



1669 New Monster Morning Glory 

 Japanese Sunshine 



Unquestionably the finest Morning- Glory in 

 existence. Very vigorous growing and producing 

 the largest flowers of all Morning- Glories. Colors 

 range through all the best shades of pink. 

 Pkt. 25 cts.; oz. 75 cts. 



Dahlia-flowered Zinnias 



If you like Zinnias you will not be without this 

 variety; if you do not like Zinnias we feel sure 

 that you will like them if you will only give these 

 fine new varieties a trial. The plants are strong 

 and vigorous, thriving even under adverse con- 

 ditions. The flowers are full double (no hard 

 centers), borne on fairly long stems, and the 

 colorings leave nothing to be desired. 



Note.— For largest size blooms do not have 

 plants closer than i>2 feet. 



2353 Canary Bird. Light canan,'- yellow. 



2350 Dream. Deep lavender, shading purple. 



2351 Exquisite. Light rose blending to deep 

 rose at the center. 



2352 Golden State. Yellow changing to orange. 



2356 Old-Rose. Just as the name implies. 



2354 Polar Bear. Pure white. 



2355 Scarlet Flame. Bright scarlet with a 

 blending of orange. 



2357 Oriole. Immense gold and orange bicolor. 



2358 Crimson Monarch. Enormous; crimson- 

 scarlet. The largest of all Zinnias. 



Each, pkt. 25 cts.; jsoz. $1.25; Uoz. $2.25 



2359 Collection: One packet of each of the 



above 9 colors, $1.75.
