DOUBLE COSMOS 



These new hybrids form bushy plants 5 to 6 feet high and 

 flower profusely during the autumn months. Only 40 to 50 per 

 cent, of the plants will bear double flowers, the balance produc- 

 ing large single blossoms, the reason being that the double 

 flowers are pistillate — having no stamens and consequently 

 bear no pollen — so to produce seed must depend upon staminate 

 singles for polination. The progeny therefore comes about 

 half doubles and half singles. Double Cosmos flowers aside 

 from their novelty and beauty are of lasting substance, both on 

 the plants and as cut flowers. The colors so far produced are 

 white and pink, which we offer in mixture. Price, 25c. per pkt.

 CENTAUREA IMPERIALIS s^eeT^an 



These beautiful giant-flowering "Sultans" produce long-stemmed, exquisitely fringed 

 blossoms 3 to 4 inches across, of graceful effect and are delightfully fragrant. The 

 colors vary, some having centers of a different color, as violet with white center, etc. 

 For bouquets and vases they are exceptionally beautiful. If cut scarcely opened they 

 will last for ten days in water. The plants are of the easiest culture, flowering freely 

 in the garden the first summer from seed sown in the spring. They are of strong, 

 bushy form, 2 to 3 feet high.

MID-SUMMER COSMOS ^Egw&iSfcT 



Unfortunately, large-flowering Cosmos do not bloom until late in the season. This 

 early-flowering strain begins blooming scatteringly in June, the quantity increasing 

 gradually until July, and from that time until frost the plants are [a mass of flowers. 

 The flowers average 3 inches across; the plants are dwarfer than the late-flowering 

 Cosmos, forming compact bushes only 4 feet high.
