Dimorphotheca White Beauty 



2187 A very attractive and easily grown annual of compact 

 habit, growing about 8 or 10 inches. The flowers are more re- 

 fined than in most of the Daisy class, and being of a pure

 plant is also very free-flowering and we consider it deserves a 

 place in every garden. (See illustration.) Pkt. 25c.

 2462 Mixed Colors. Pkt. 50c. 



"/ have been decorating Queen 

 Anne Congregational Church for 

 nearly two years with the products 

 of your flower seeds and bulbs and 

 am often asked where I obtain 

 seeds for producing such beautiful 

 results, to which inquiries I am 

 always glad to respond 'Peter 

 Henderson's, New York.' My 

 Digitalis grew to a height of 8 or 

 9 feet feet this past summer and 

 my Sweet Peas climbed to the 

 roof of our cottage, requiring a 

 step-ladder tor cutting.
