Novelties and Specialties in Flower Seeds for 1908 



Sweet Pea, White Spe 



SWEET PEA 



White Spencer 



Enormous in size. The flowers of this new variety are ab- 

 solutely pure white, the standard decidedly waved," erinkled 

 and fluted; the wings are so folded that the 'keel is almost hid- 

 den. The flowers measure nearl y 2 inches across and are borne 

 3 and 4 to the stem. A well-fixed variety coming true to the 

 Countess Spencer type. Pkt. 25c. 



SWEET PEA— Primrose Spencer 



This is a fitting companion to White Spencer. The flowers 

 are well placed and borne 3 and 4 on long, thick stems. Both 

 standard and wings are decidedly waved and crinkled and 

 measure 1% inches across. The color is a pronounced primrose 

 yellow, richer and deeper than any other primrose-colored 

 variety. Pkt. 25c. 



VERBENA MAMMOTH 



Fairy Queen 



This charming novelty distinguished itself from all the other 

 varieties of Mammoth Verbenas by the extreme delicacy of the 

 coloring of its flowers, which are daintily tinted pink on white 

 ground. Pkt. 25c. 



COSMOS— LADY LENOX. The New Giant-Flowering Cosmos 



This striking novelty produces flowers of extraordinary size and beauty. It received the highest praise from all 

 who saw it at the floral exhibitions last Autumn. The plants grow to a height of 6 to 7 feet. The flower petals are 

 % gTrn oval, of splendid substance, and form a perfectly circular bloom 



1 ililX. which attains the enormous diameter of 6-7 inches. The coloris 



. a beautiful shell pink. Flowers may be cut with any length of 



Giant Comet — Triumph or Paris stcms u i> to 4 fect and wil1 last a long time in water. Pkt. 23c. 



Of pyramidal habit, this new Aster grows 2 to 2% 

 feet high and produces large flowers 4-Mi to 6 inches 

 across, with long pure white outer petals, in the cen- 

 ter of which the quilled disc florets form a bright gold 

 en wreath. A first class certificate of the French Hor- 

 ticultural Society was awarded to this novelty on 

 August 29th, 1907. Pkt. 35c. 



ASTER— Violet King 



This handsome Aster must be seen to be appreci- 

 ated. Of branching habit, the plants are vigorous in 

 growth and produce their graceful flowers on long, 

 stiff stems. The flower petals resemble the quilled 

 varieties but arc much larger and broader. The 

 bloom is round, full and very large, measuring freVni 

 4 to 5 inches in diameter. The color is soft violet- 

 lilac. Pkt. 10c. 



ASTER— Snowdrift 



The earliest white Aster in cultivation. The 

 recurved petals give the flowers an exceedingly f, 

 ful effect. Although Snowdrift blooms a few 

 ahead of any other sort, the (lowers are not 

 passed in size or beauty by any of the later 

 eties. Pkt. 25c. 



ASTER— Giant Hohenzollern 



This is without doubt the most attractive 

 largest flowering type of Asters at the present 

 The plants attain a height of 1V 2 to 2 feet and fr 

 to 6 inches across; the long petals arecurlcd. Pkt
