^ew Giant Early 



Flowering Cosmos. 



These new hybrids originated in California. 

 They bloom from one to two months sooner 

 than the ordinary kinds. 



Th-ese giant flowers are surpassingly beautiful, 

 measuring 414 to 5 inches across. Some are^ shaped 

 like single Camellias, but larger and more beauti- 

 ful; some of the crimson ones could almost be 

 taken for single Dahlias ; white ones have plaited 

 petals, prettily fringed. The petals are plain in 

 some flowers ; in others pinked, toothed or fringed, and 

 beautifully overlapping. Colors range from pure whiie 

 through shades of pink and red. The latter are dark 

 rich shades of red, shades heretofore unknown in Cosmos. 

 Some white ones are delicately flushed or flaked with 

 pink or mauve, and very beautiful flowers m pink and 

 mauve have a dark red ring round the eye. The 

 daintiest white, pink, and flushed, have laciniated petals, 

 fringed to the center of the flower, and resemble 

 Marguerites, but are more beautiful and esthetic. The' 

 giant white are especially handsome, with very large, 

 broad petals ; flowers of great substance, almost as 

 chaste and lovely as lilies. Packet, 200 seeds, all colors, 

 8c.; 4 packets for 2Sc.; ^ oz., ISc.
