FLOWER SEEDS 



The World's Choicest Nasturtiums ha 



Large-Flowered Tall or Trailing Varieties 



The Nasturtiums deserve every bit of their immense popularity, for they will 

 grow anywhere and produce an amazing quantity of brightly colored flowers for 

 cutting. The tall or trailing varieties grow quickly and are most useful for screening 

 unsightly fences and quickly covering waste spots. Gorgeous solid effects can be 

 obtained by planting the named varieties. The seed may be sown in the open 

 ground as soon as the soil can be put in shape for planting. They will commence to 

 bloom in June and continue to bloom profusely until hard frost, if the flowers are 

 kept cut. Growth 6 to 8 or 10 feet.
