OF COURSE you have already looked at the color 

 photograph on the cover. We hope you will go 

 back to it again and again^ thoroughly enjoying 

 the home scene with its vegetables and flowers, all of 

 which were grown from FERRY'S SEEDS. You who 

 are familiar with the lovely Heavenly Blue morning 

 glory pictured there need not be told how satisfac- 

 tory it is in every way. 



Now, we call your attention to several flower offer- 

 ings on the page opposite. First, our 1939 introduc- 

 tion in morning glories — Crimson Rambler in ruby 

 red with white throat. The blossoms are abundant. 

 It is a true Convolvulus, or ' twiner, and its vigorous 

 growth and climbing habits make it a leader among 

 all red morning glories. Crimson Rambler, like 

 Heavenly Blue, is particularly effective against the 

 side of a house, or on a fence or trellis. 



And, at last! A hollyhock that blooms the first year 

 and is truly beautiful. Indian Spring (see also op- 

 posite page) with its fresh, rose-pink, semi-double 

 flowers will bring June into your garden in Septem- 



ber. It grows about four feet tall and is very useful 

 for backgrounds. Indian Spring won the highest Silver 

 Medal Award in the All- America selections for 1 939. 



Cherry Queen (upper right) is one of the best of all 

 zinnias. The flowers, huge and fully double, are of 

 exhibition quality. But the most outstanding charac- 

 teristic of Cherry Queen is its color — lively, glowing 

 cherry red. This exceptional flower combines well 

 with almost all zinnia colors. 



In experimenting with mixtures of many different 

 shades and tints of zinnias, the blend named Indian 

 Summer (upper left) meets our fullest approval. Last 

 season it was also the favorite of 92.3 per cent of 

 the visitors at our Oakview Trial Grounds. The 

 colors are scarlet, orange, yellow, white, cherry, 

 and salmon-rose — as rich and, mellow as a maple 

 grove in autumn. 



On the following pages you will find many other 

 flower and vegetable varieties, both new and old, 

 to meet every home garden need. We ore justly 

 proud of the seeds we offer you. Ninety-seven per 

 cent of all the vegetable and flower seeds sold by

 our own seed farms, or under our direct supervision 

 from our own pedigreed strains.
