Stokesia The Hardy Cornflower 



A beautiful hardy perennial plant. As a single specimen or group in the 

 border or for beds or masses it is very attractive. It is of the easiest culture, 

 blooming the first year from seed, and succeeding in any open, sunny position. 

 The plants grow from 18 to 24 inches high, flowering from July till late in 

 October. The flowers, 4 to 5 inches across, on long stems, are valuable for 

 cutting. (See illustration.)

3783 "Red and Gold." The plants of Henderson's "Red and Gold" Sun- 

 flower grow strong, branching to a height of 7 to 9 feet, each stem pro- 

 ducing several flowers of large size. The central stem and main branches bear 

 the large flowers — 4 to 5 inches across. The coloring varies from golden-yellow 

 splashed with red to nearly all red, but the great majority will be Gaillardia 

 colored — that is a wide zone of red surrounds the purplish-black center, the 

 ends or tips of the petals being of a rich golden-yellow. (See illustration. )

 378S "Red Semi-Double and Collarette." The plahts are of the same 

 branching, free-flowering habits and easy culture as our "Red and Gold" 

 Sunflower and the large flowers, 4 to 6 inches across, have the same colorings- 

 reds and garnets tipped with gold and yellow. The seed we offer 

 has been saved exclusively from densely-double, semi-double 

 i and collarette flowering plants.
