COREOPSIS {Perennial) 



These long-lasting flowers are simply perfect, measuring 3 inches and over in diameter, and 

 are borne on stalks 15 to 18 inches in length. 



1992 El Dorado. Color, brilliant golden-yellow. This variety, although a hardy perennial, 

 will flower the same season from seed sown early; compact, bushy plants, about 2 feet 

 high, blooming abundantly during the summer and fall Pkt. 10c 



1993 New Double. This semi-double form of this hardy perennial is proving to be very 

 popular and valuable for cutting and for the hardy border: color bright yellow. Pkt. 15c. 



1994 Harvest Moon. One of the finest hardy garden plants grown. It flowers the first sea- 

 son from seed sown early. Harvest Moon is an improved variety of the lanceolaia grandi- 

 fiora type, producing immense, long stemmed rich yellow flowers, shaded with orange, and 

 flowering in profusion during the summer; unequalled for cutting; grows anywhere. (See 

 illustration.) Per 500 seeds. 50c; pkt. 10c 



1995 Mayfield Giant. This very fine perennial, of Australian origin, is a considerable ad- 

 vance on any strain yet introduced of this highly ornamental and very useful flower. It 

 produces a taller and more vigorous plant than the type, with longer and firmer stems and 

 larger individual blooms, of which the ray petals are broader and form a more perfect 

 flower. The color is intense yellow. Both for the border and for cutting we can strongly 

 recommend this excellent new strain Pkt. 25c
