NASTURTIUM (Annual) 



They flourish in almost any kind of garden soil, even if only moderately good 

 provided it is drained and no water collects in pools on it, and the place receives 

 the rays of the sun for part of the day. 



These very modest requirements complied with. Nasturtiums of all varieties 

 produce an endless succession of gorgeous blossoms from within a few weeks 

 of the time seed was sown until a hard frost hits the garden on the near approach 

 of winter. 



The varieties we offer below were selected by us after a long series of trials at 

 our seed-testing farm at Red Bank, N. J. Undoubtedly they are the best and 

 most distinct sorts.
