HENDERSON'S "GARDEN BEAUTIFUL" 



COLLECTIONS OF FLOWER SEEDS 



LOWER GARDENING is one of the most pleasurable and healthful of outdoor recreations, and 

 when one "gardens with seeds" a fascinating interest is engendered that progresses from anticipa- 

 tion with the seed sowing to joyous satisfaction as the plants unfurl their glorious blossoms, 

 reflecting beauty and refinement to their surroundings. 

 Many of our most beautiful garden flowers are raised from seeds. Considering their ease of culture, the quick results, gorgeous effect and low 

 St of flower seeds, they should be more eKtensively employed for garden decoration in this country. In the gardens of Europe immense quantities of 

 wer seeds are utilized, with which an endless variety of happy effects is produced. 



To aid in popularizing flower seeds, we have collated collections for different purposes. These collections are composed of only tried and choice 

 3ds studiously selected to furnish a varied, profuse and continuous display of flowers throughout the season, includ'ng some that are equally val- 

 ble as cut flowers for vases, etc. We offer these collections at lowest possible prices consistent with high quality.
