MIGNONETTE 



Red Goliath. One of the finest, being of strong 

 growth, healthy and deep-rooting. The average 

 spikes of flowers are immense, measuring 6 to 8 in- 

 ches long by 2' 2 inches in diameter, and are compactly 

 filled with giant iiorets, measuring J-2 inch across and 

 packed full, even in the centre, with anthers, or 

 three times as many as the older Mignonettes con- 

 tain, consequently this variety is correctly called a 

 double Mignonette. The color of the florets — fire- 

 red — IS strengthened on account ot the density of 

 the florets and spikes, thus presenting almost solid 

 columns of brilliant red, effectively contrasted 

 against the healthy, rich green foliage. The fra- 

 grance is delightfully rich and powerful. For cut- 

 ting It is perfection, remaining fresh for 8 to 10 days 

 m water. (See cut.) Per 1,000 seeds, 50c.; Per
