 (PRICE PER PACKET, 5 CENTS) 



Did you have them last Summer? If not, why not? 

 The Nasturtium, with four or five other ornamen- 

 tal plants, leads everything else in the garden. 

 Landreths' Nasturtiums for 1913 were a great 

 success, but we feel confident that they will be 

 even more satisfactory, as our stock contains some 

 new varieties. These flowers require next to no 

 care and thrive best in rather poor soil, enduring 

 heat and dry weather remarkably well. No 

 flower is as desirable for table decoration. Every 

 housewife prizes the seed pods on account of their 

 pungent, peppery taste, and feels her pickles 

 incomplete without them. The flowers are of all 

 colors, from deep chocolate to nearly white, and 

 blossom in greatest profusion until killed by frost. 

 They are very effective when planted in borders, 

 also well suited for vases and baskets. Do not let 

 a Summer pass without having a bed of these 

 refreshing flov/ers. You cannot but love them if 

 you know them. No more trouble to grow 

 Nasturtiums than to grow Lettuce or Peas or 

 Beans. They bloom from early summer until 

 killed by frost.
