Calendula, Orange Fantasy 



Calendula — 1569 Orange Fantasy ®

 an entirely new type. The outer petals are long and beautifully 

 twisted whereas the inner ones are much shorter and irregularly 

 arranged giving the flower a crested appearance. The individual 

 blooms measure 3j inches in diameter and are bronzy or coppery- 

 orange with deep mahogany red petal edges. Pkt. 25c; 5 pkts. 

 for $1.00. 



Celosia pyramidalis, Flame of Fire 



Celosia pyramidalis 

 1859 Flame of Fire 



Among the many novelties of recent years this Celosia stands out 

 as a very distinct and desirable annual. The plants grow about 

 18 inches in height, forming perfect little pyramids with each 

 branch ending in a heavy, large, round cone of a most brilliant and 

 intense rich crimson. The formation of the flower heads is entirely 

 distinct from all other Celosias. The fact that it blooms from 

 August until October is a feature that makes it particularly valu- 

 able. Wonderful for garden display, for cutting, and in pots. 

 Pkt. 25c; special pkt. 75c.

 1867 Jubilee Gem
