Here's that 

 MARIGOLD 



Yellow Supreme 



Do you like the Guinea Gold Marigold which came 

 out a short time ago? Almost everyone does. You 

 will also be delighted with its blond cousin, Yellow 

 Supreme, which is making its debut this year. 



The flowers are very large, and their light golden- 

 yellow petals fairly glow and sparkle in the sunshine. 

 You will appreciate the pleasing fragrance of the 

 blossoms, too. 



The tall plants make a striking appearance in a 

 border by themselves. Or, try some of them in com- 

 bination with Guinea Gold and see how effective they 

 are. (For further description, see page 70)

NEW 



NASTURTIUMS 



Scarlet Gleam and 



Gleam Hybrids 



When Golden Gleam 

 Nasturtium was intro- 

 duced, many people 

 wondered whether 

 they would soon be 

 able to get seed of the 

 finenewflower in other 

 colors. 



And here they are! 



Scarlet Gleam is the 

 first new color suffi- 

 ciently true to warrant 

 being put on the mar- 

 ket. It has semi-double flowers of rich deep scarlet, 

 similar m size and shape to those of Golden Gleam. 

 It is similar- m habit, too, except that it is a trifle later. 



Gleam Hybrids come in hues of salmon, yellow, 

 primrose and red. They also include many shades

RUST 



RESISTANT 



SNAPDRAGON 



(Antirrhinum) 



For several years, 

 in some sections of 

 the country, an un- 

 sightly rust has been 

 destroying snap- 

 dragon plants just as 

 they were about to 

 blossom. 



We are now happy 

 to tell you that we 

 have seed to offer 

 which is about 75% 

 The stock from which 



I resistant against this blight 



I, our seed was grown was secured from the Uni 



versity of California where the rust resistant strain 



was developed. 



The mixture of rust resistant "snaps" we offer 

 this year contains deep rich colors you will like. 

 They are grown in exactly the same way as other 

 snapdragons. (For further description, see 

 page 53.)

you'll be enthusiastic 

 about the gayety, grace, 

 and earliness of Orange 



COSMOS 



Orange Flare 



In our 1934 flower trials at Oakview, Orange Flare 

 was in bloom during August, while the old-fashioned 

 Cosmos was cut down by frost in October before il: 

 came into bloom at all. 



When once you have grown this deep golden- 

 orange Cosmos, you will want it in your garden year 

 after year. (For further description, see page 61.)

White Queen (Dobbie's) 



White Cosmos is not new, but this one combines 

 extreme earliness with blossoms of largest size. White 

 Queen is the original Scotch strain, distinctly improved. 

 The plants are compact, bloom freely, and flower 

 even earlier than Early Mammoth Single. 



For a succession of bloom, the two varieties, Early 

 Mammoth Single anrl White Queen may well be planted 

 together. White Queen also combines wonderfully 

 with Orange Flare. If Orange Flare is started indoors, 

 and the plants set outside later when the seed of 

 White Queen is sown, the two will bloom together. (For 

 further description, see page 61.)
