STOCK, Double Sweet fragrance is always an attraction to the 

 flower lover, and in this class of Gilliflowers the gardener 

 is assured of a delightful perfume. Combined with this 

 pleasing attribute go many other fine qualities. The plants 

 are of neat habit, carrying velvety light green or lustrous 

 bright green foliage and bearing handsome spikes of double 

 rosette-like blossoms on fine stems. Vivid tones and soft 

 shades of color to suit every taste are available for decorat- 

 ing the garden or for bouquets. Only single flowered Stocks 

 bear seeds, so no double strain can be reproduced without a 

 small percentage of singles. Our seeds will supply a very 

 large proportion of true doubles. 



Dwarf Ten Weeks [hA-12 in.] This early class forms 

 dwarf compact plants that are excellent for edgings or low 

 beds. They often do well in sections where plants of the 

 later types cannot be grown.

Beauty of Nice [hA-16 in.] A type developed on the French

Perpetual Branching [hA-20 in.] Sometimes called Dresden, 

 or "Cut-and-Come-Again". This variety is somewhat 

 later in season than Beauty of Nice, and in the North it 

 should be started very early. The plant branches near 

 the base, producing large flower spikes on long clean stems.

Giant Imperial [hA-2 ft.] Long stems and imposing 

 spikes of large flowers make this the outstanding variety 

 for florists. It is about as early as Beauty of Nice and 

 resembles it in habit, except that the plant is somewhat 

 less spreading and considerably taller. "Pure line" breeding 

 has made our strains unsurpassed in percentage of doubles. 

 Either for greenhouse or garden they are excellent.

Giant Winter [hhB-2ft.] This is a later blooming, branching 

 plant which produces huge spikes. For use in the open it 

 is valuable only in mild climates. In northern latitudes 

 where the season is short it must be taken inside at the 

 approach of killing frosts.

STEVIA [tP-2 ft.] To mix with more colorful blossoms in 

 bouquets, Stevia is one of the best of the small flowering 

 plants. Slender stalks carry toothed leaves of light green 

 and bear quantities of tiny clear white blossoms faintly 

 scented. Botanically this is "Piqueria Trinerva." Although 

 it is hardy in a mild climate, it flowers so promply after 

 sowing that it should be used as an annual.

SUNFLOWER (Helianthus) [hA] Not only do these flow- 

 ers bear a resemblance to the sun; they also need to be 

 bathed in sunlight if they are to thrive. Except in the mini- 

 ature type, each plant has a single robust stalk, sometimes 

 forked near the top, clothed with large heart-shaped leaves, 

 and bearing large circular flower heads. They are admirably 

 adapted for use as backgrounds or tall divisions. 



Single Red and Gold [5 ft.] These hybrids resemble the 

 Gaillardia in coloring and produce large single flowers with 

 deep red centers and petals in crimson and yellow. 



Single Stella [3 ft.] A bushy, branching plant with leaves 

 like the cucumber. It bears single flowers 3 inches across on 

 long stems. The yellow petals surround a small dark disc. 

 Each of the above: 3^ oz. 30c; pkt. 10c 



Double Chrysanthemum Flowered [6 ft] A tall stately 

 variety carrying large densely double bright golden-yellow 

 flowers.

 less quilled petals forming a solid hemispherical head of 

 bright yellow color.
