Strumosa Suttoni. These are the varieties of 

 Nemesia which caused quite a sensation when 

 exhibited by us at the International Flower Show

 April. 



Nemesias can be grown at various seasons ot 

 the year; in the spring and winter for green- 

 house decoration and pot plants, and for sum- 

 mer beds and borders outdoors. For this purpose, 

 seed must be sown in cold frames in March and 

 transplanted to the open ground in May. Height, 

 12 to 15 inches.

CORONATION GOLD 



(Award of Merit All- American Selections) 

 3108 The most beautiful Yellow Pansy ever orig- 

 inated. The flowers are very large, clear rich 

 golden yellow in color and possess a delightful 

 spicy fragrance. The upper petals are attrac- 

 tively ruffled, which makes it undoubtedly one 

 of the most valuable Pansies for cut flower pur- 

 poses ever developed. Although a perennial, it 

 flowers the first year. It is an ideal variety for 

 the garden, and we believe will prove one of the 

 outstanding Pansies for greenhouse culture.
