EA.R^LY COSMOS. nSwERmG. 



Unfortunately, large-flowering Cosmos do not bloom until late in the season. 

 This new early-flowering strain begins to bloom scatteringly in June, the quantity 

 increasing gradually until August, and from that time until frost the plants are 

 a m.ass of flowers. The flowers are smaller and the plants are dwarfer than the 

 late-flowering Cosmos offered above, forming compact bushes only 4 feet high. 

 ' The colors are white, crimson and pink, which we offer only in Mixed. Colors.
