SPECIALTIES IN FLOWER SEED! 



^PHILADELPHIA^ 



New Extra Early Cosmos 



2074 Express Pink. An extra early single Cosmos flowering in from forty- 

 five to fifty days from the time seed is sown. The plant grows about two 

 and one-half to three feet high and is covered with medium sized bright 

 pink flowers. 15 cts. per pkt.; 50 cts. per \ oz. 



Double-flowering Cosmos 



It has taken a great deal of care and patience to 

 perfect this strain. The flowers vary considerably in 

 their degree of doubleness, some being absolutely 

 double, while others have a frill or collar surrounding 

 the double disc, and while we think this is the most 

 artistic, they are beautiful in either form, of high value 

 for cutting and garden decoration. We offer both the 

 Early and Late flowering strain, for points north of 

 Philadelphia, the early flowering is best.

 Lanceolata Grandiflora 



Double-flowering Cosmos 



Double-flowering Coreopsis 



Coreopsis Lanceolata Grandiflora Fl. PI. 



2072 Coreopsis Lanceolata has for a long time been a gem in the perennial 

 border and one never grows tired of the masses of golden yellow 

 blooms which it produces, which are decorative in the garden and 

 invaluable as cut flowers. This double and semi-double form is 

 just as easy to grow and the extra petalage adds a further charm 

 to the flower. 15 cts. per pkt.; 50 cts. per \ oz. 



New Coreopsis Grandiflora 



2073 Auricula Superba. Petals golden yellow, with a serrated band 

 of brownish red encircling the golden disc. Makes an excellent 

 cut flower. 25 cts. per pkt. 



(For general list of Coreopsis see page 80) 



Cynoglossum Amabile

2148 An annual recently introduced from China; of the easiest culture 

 forming strong plants about 18 inches high and producing through 

 the summer months sprays of intense blue Forget-me-not-like 

 flowers. A splendid addition to the comparatively short list of 

 real blue flowers. 15 cts. per pkt. ; 40 cts. per \ oz. 



2149 Amabile Pink. In growth and general appearance this resembles 

 the Cynoglossum Blue, only that the flowers are rich, deep pink and 

 are more striking than pink Forget-me-nots. In moderate climates 

 these plants are perennial. 25 cts. per pkt.; 75 cts. per \ oz.
