MARIGOLD HENDERSON'S PRIDE OF THE GARDEN 



These grand African Marigolds produce densely double flowers. 8 to 10 

 inches in circumference, and of the regularity and perfection of a Dahlia. 

 A highly meritorious feature is the compact, dwarf habit of the plants, 

 which form dense bushes only 15 to 18 inches high by 2 feet across. For 

 effective garden display during the summer and autumn months, nothing 

 can surpass the gorgeous masses of color of these grand varieties.

MYOSOTIS. or 



"Forget^Me^Nots' 



Roth Fischer. This splendid Forget-me-not 

 created a sensation last season, and took 

 first prizes at the shows in Berlin, Dresden, 

 Ghent and Mannheim. The plant is of 

 compact habit with glossy dark green 

 foliage, above which are carried on sturdy 

 stems large clusters of immense pure 

 Forget-me-not blue flowers, 1^2 inches 

 across, or larger than those of any other 

 known Myosotis. The plants of unusual 

 hacdiness, withstanding zero weather, are 

 in consequence especially valuable for spring 

 bedding effects. They also make fine pot 

 plants, forcing easily Pkt. 15c. 



Triumph. A robust-growing, large-flowering 

 Forget-me-not. It commences to bloom in from 

 6 to 8 weeks from seed-sowing and continues to 

 bloom until checked by frost. The individual 

 dowers are large and are borne in clusters on long 

 graceful stems, rendering them very useful for cutting 

 Color, bright turquoise-blue with yellow eye. . . Pkt. 10c 



The Best Mignonettes 



Red Goliath. One of the finest being of strong growth, 

 healthy and deep-rooting. The average spikes of flowers 

 aie immense, measuring 6 to 8 inches long by 2i-2 inches in 

 diameter, and are compactly filled with giant florets, meas- 

 uring '2 inch across and packed full, even in the centre, 

 with anthers, or three times as many as the older Mignon- 

 ettes contain, consequently this variety is correctly called 

 a double Mignonette. The color of the florets — fire-red — 

 is strengthened on account of the density of the florets and 

 spikes, thus presenting almost solid columns of brilliant 

 red, effectively contrasted against the healthy, rich green 

 foliage. The fragrance is delightfully rich and power- 

 ful. For cutting it is perfection, remaining fresh for 

 8 to 10 days in water. {See cut.) Per 1,000 



seeds. 50c.; Per U os. 81.00 Pkt. 15c. 



White Goliath. The double white-flowering 

 counterpart of the splendid "Red GoUath" 



offered above.. . . - Pkt. 15c. 



Machet's Perfection. This improved pop- 

 ular Mignonette produces broad, cone- 

 shaped spikes of very fragrant red flowers 

 on strong and graceful stems, dressed 

 with vigorous foliage, evenly branched 

 and of continuous - blooming habit 

 much the superior of its type; one of 

 the best for either garden or pot cul- 

 ture. Per 1,000 seeds. 30c.; Pkt. 10c. 

 White Machet or "Pearl." A white- 

 flowered variety of the popular 

 Machet Mignonette, of the same 

 stocky, robust growth, producing

 conical heads of deliciously fragrant 

 white flowers. Per 1,000 seeds,
