MISS EMMA V. WHITE 



-20 — Berne, Ind. — "I used your Cardinal Climber with 

 Madeira Vine on my porch with grand effect" — 

 — Mrs. S. Habegger. 



CANNA 



CALCEOLARIA GRANDIFLORA 



These are gorgeous plants for the greenhouse 

 or window, remarkable for their orchid-like blos- 

 soms. They come into flower eight months after 

 sowing, bearing hundreds of curious pocket- 

 like flowers, spotted and blotched and margined 

 in a most unique fashion, in such shades as yel- 

 low, maroon, crimson, white, etc. Greenhouse 

 biennials. Pkt., 125 seeds, 8c; 2 pkts., 14c. 



CACTUS 



Many like to experiment with Cacti, and rais- 

 ing seedlings is better than importing plants if 

 one desires to get a fine collection. All Cacti 

 are easy to grow, enduring the heat and dry- 

 ness of the living room better than other plants. 

 Mixed from a splendid collection. Pkt., 65 seeds, 



C THE CARDINAL CLIMBER 



A Splendid New Climber 



The vine quickly reaches a height of 30 ft. or 

 more. The blossoms are about 1 X A inches in di- 

 ameter, in clusters of 5 to 7 blooms each, and as 

 the name indicates are of a rich cardinal red. It 

 likes sun and good soil. If started in the open, 

 do not sow until settled warm weather, as the 

 seed will rot in cold wet ground. File each seed, 

 or slightly cut through the outer cohering, soak 

 in luke warm water over night, and sow in a 

 warm place. Pkt., 8 seeds, 8c; 2 pkts., 14c. 



CALENDULA or POT MARIGOLD 



Fine annuals for cutting. They bloom early 

 and long, especially in the cool fall days after 

 most annuals have gone to seed. The place of 

 short-lived plants may be filled by scattering 

 seeds of Calendulas in May or June. They come 

 in every shade of yellow or deep golden, double 

 and semi-double. Mixed. Pkt., 100 seeds 4c; 

 M oz., 10c. 



Loma Linda, Cal. — "I had success with most of 

 your seeds I believe every Cyclamen seed came 

 and I have 12 fine Cineraries and 17 Calceolarias, 

 also many perennials." — Mrs. Geneva Ford. 



Price per pkt., each, 15 

 seeds, 5c; any 3 pkts., 12c. 

 Bronzed-Leaved Canna. 



A mixture of dark or red- 

 leaved varieties, splendid 

 where foliage effect is desired. 

 Novelty Cannas. An or- 

 chid flowering mixture of the 

 Dwarf Crozy type, in striped, 

 spotted or variegated red and 

 yellow sorts. 



Red Cannas. A specially 

 selected strain of the most de- 

 sirable dwarf Crozy red sorts, 

 tearing extra large flowers, 

 rivalling the Gladiolus in size 

 and brilliance. 



Canna, Prize Mixed. A 

 splendid strain of the new 

 Dwarf Crozy type, saved from 

 the newest and best named 

 varieties; especially recom- 

 mended forits large, gladiolus- 

 like blooms, and beautiful 

 colors. Cannas are easily 

 raised from seed and bloom the first season. Oz., 25c. 

 Giant Canna, Mixed. Tall-growing varieties, 

 including both bronze and green-leafed sorts; oz. 25c 

 For Canna plants. See Plant Dept., p. 43. 

 Elgin, 111. — "Had genuine enjoyment from the two 

 pkts.. mixed perennials, so many flowers, both odd 

 and pretty." — Mrs J. S. Rudd.
