GOLDEN GLEAM New Double, Sweet-Scented 



(Awarded a Gold Medal as one of the leading "All 

 American" varieties of flower seeds for 1933) 



3012 The ever-increasing popularity of this well-known novelty, which 

 was introduced last year, leads us to believe that the demand will 

 surpass that of last year. We feel that its popularity is due'in large 

 part to the many ways in which the plant can be used. As a bedding 

 plant it is unsurpassed. The neatly formed, vigorous growing plants, 

 covered with a mass of the large, golden yellow flowers, produce a 

 blaze of color in the garden. The flowers, borne on erect, stiff, 6-inch 

 stems, coupled with the great floriferousness of the plant, leave the 

 foliage practically hidden. When fully developed the plant sends out 

 short runners, also bearing numerous flowers, which add to the useful- 

 ness of the plant for the window box. In the greenhouse, plants may 

 also be forced, as sweet peas are, for early cut flower .sales. The 

 long stems lend themselves admirably to cut flower use, and the 

 sweet scented flowers impart a delightful fragrance to the room 

 in which they are used. 



The neat, compact habit and early appearance of flowers make 

 Golden Gleam an excellent pot plant subject. The runners can be 

 pinched back as soon as they appear, and a rounded mass of golden 

 flowers will be the result. (See color plate, page 67.)
