MlNNEAPOLIS, MINN 



HIT OR MISS" FLOWER GARDEN. 



This collection is made up of what I 

 have left over of last year's seeds that 

 upon testing were found to germinate, to- 

 gether with a large quantity of fresh seed. 

 Many seed dealers put these into their 

 regular packages and send them out as 

 fresh seed, but I sell these in this way for 

 what they are. A large proportion of 

 them will grow, and you will be both sur- 

 prised and delighted at the wonderful 

 array of blooms from a single 

 packet. Sift out the fine seed, 

 so that it may be planted un- 

 der different conditions from 

 the coarser seed. Per packet, 

 extra size, 3 cts.; oz., 10c. 



Curled and Crested 

 Zinnia. 



A splendid strain, with pet- 

 als daintily curled and crink- 

 led, giving a softness and 

 beauty most charming, and re- 

 lieving the flowers from much 

 of the ordinary stiffness and 

 coarseness. Mixed. Pkt., f|c. 



Liliput Zinnia. 



A new, extra dwarf variety. 

 The blossoms are small and 

 very double, thickly covering the plants 

 with their vivid scarlet or white, last- 

 ing till the latest frosts. Those who 

 have barred the Zinnia because of its 

 coarseness will be delighted with these 

 liliputian varieties. They are as showy 

 as a Geranium and make a splendid sub- 

 stitute for it in the window box or orna- 

 mental bed, at a trifling cost.

 gorgeous mass of color nor give a longer blooming 

 season than the Zinnia. This is a splendid double, 

 large-flowering strain. Mixed. Pkt., 4 cts.

WMtes, all curiously marked and spotted. Pkt., 3c
