EVERYTHING FOR THE GARDEN— Flower Seeds 



Chinese Wool Flower 



(Celosia Child si) 



1772 This unique type of Celosia Plumosa forms — instead of pyramidal pan- 

 icles of bloom — large globular heads like balls of wool or chenille, and of rich 

 bright red color. The plants, 2 to 3 feet in height, branch freely, each branch 

 terminating with a flower-head. It continues in flower from early sum- 

 mer until frost, and is very effective for gardens, either massed or grown 

 as individuals. (See illustration.) Per 500 seeds, 80c; Pkt. 18c. 



Carnation, Hardy Garden 



1760 This is a very fine strain, particularly adapted for garden 

 planting. Seed sown in the spring will produce large and thrifty 

 clumps that will stand out over winter and bloom throughout the fol- 

 lowing summer and fall. All shades and markings are presented in 

 the mixture, and most of them will come double. (.See. illustration.) 



Finest Double Mixed. 



Extra fine strain. 



Per 500 seeds, TSc.i Pkt. 18c. 



Carnation, Marguerite, Giant Flowering 



These flower profusely in summer and autumn from seed sown in the spring. 

 The flowers of this wonderful strain often measure 3 inches across, and are usually 

 as double as double can be. The variety of colors includes white, blush, deep 

 pink, salmon, carmine, scarlet, dark crimson, maroon and many beautiful varie- 

 gated flowers. Most of them have lovely fringed petals and are delightfully fra- 

 grant. One great merit of these Carnations is that they commence to flower in 

 about twelve weeks' time from seed. Seed sown in the spring will produce luxuriant 

 plants that will be continuously full of bloom from August until killed by severe 

 frosts, or seeds may be sown during the summer for the winter-flowering plants.
