Tithonia Speciosa 



The Golden Flower of the Iucas 

 3025. One of the most striking- cut 

 flowers we have ever had the pleas- 

 ure of offering to our customers. 

 Stately, bushy plants, 4 to 6 feet 

 high, dark green dahlia-like foliage 

 bearing quantities of long stemmed 

 blooms. Flowers vary from orange 

 to orange-scarlet with raised bright 

 yellow centers. Bouquets of Tith- 

 onia in our window have been mis- 

 taken for single Dahlias. Pkt., 50c. 



Ageratum, Blue Ball 



578. Plants grow more uniform in 

 height than the other varieties of 

 Ageratum. Growth is compact and 

 ball shaped, about 6 inches high and 

 plants are covered with deep agera- 

 tum blue flowers. One of the best 

 subjects for borders or edging. Pkt., 

 25c. 



Tithonia Speciosa. 



Delphinium, Iceberg 



1514. A pure white Delphinium that comes fairly true 

 from seed. Plants are not so tall as the Gold Medal 

 Hybrids or the Wrexham strains, but produce good 

 sized spikes thickly covered with pure white blooms. 

 Seeds sown in early summer will produce flowering 

 plants the next year. Pkt., 50c. 



Hunnemannia, Sunlite 



1951. A Poppy that makes an excellent cut flower. The 

 extra band of petals is produced on the outside of 

 the tulip shaped flower. Bright canary yellow. 

 Plants grow about 18 inches tall. Pkt., 25c. 



Nicotiana Sanderae, Crimson King 



2355. Most Nicotianas are such rank growers that 

 their use has been limited. The variety Crimson 

 King is only 18 inches high, quite compact, and 

 bears quantities of dark velvety crimson flowers. 

 Very useful for borders and as cut flowers. Pkt., 25c. 



Ageratum, Blue Ball. 



Petunia, Pink Gem 



(Illustrated at left). 



2478. A superb novelty. The first of a 

 charming new race of miniature Pe- 

 tunias. Compact plants 6 to 8 inches 

 high, literally smothered with bright 

 pink blooms. Individual plants will 

 have as many as 25 blooms open at a 

 time. Beautiful effects may be had by 

 combining with blue Lobelia or Ager- 

 atum. Pkt., 25c; 3 pkts., 65c. 



Anchusa Myosotidiflora 



653. We think this is the most charming 

 of the Anchusas. Plants are compact 

 and grow about 18 inches tall. Flowers 

 are borne on short spikes about the fo- 

 liage and are readily mistaken for the 

 bloom of the true Forget-Me-Not. Seed
