C. C. MORSE & CO-, SEED GROWERS AND DEALERS, SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, U. S, A. 
OUR COVER SUBJECTS All Reproduced in Colors True to Name 
BURPEE'S "DWARF-GIANT" TOMATO 
This is much the largest fruited of all Dwarf Tomatoes. The fruits are truly 
gigantic in size, and are uniformly large throughout the season. In fact, no 
other tomatoes, excepting only the Ponderosa, which is one of its parents, are 
so large and heavy. The color is a rich purple-crimson and the depth of color 
is maintained throughout the entire fruit. The skin, while thin and easily re- 
moved in peeling, is so strong as to perfectly protect the fruit when shipped to 
distant markets. 
"DWARF-GIANT" is the most meaty of all Tomatoes. The flesh is so firm 
and the tomatoes so heavy that they might be descibed "solid as a rock." 
It is the most nearly seedless of all tomatoes. The very few seeds are contained 
in extremely small cells close to the outer margin. The firm, fine-grained flesh 
extends to the very centre, with no trace whatever of a core. 
The seed is very scarce again this year and we can offer it only in sealed packets 
at 10c each ; }i Oz. 25c ; % Oz. 40c ; 1 Oz. $1.50. 
For other Tomatoes see page 41. 
GOLDEN SELF BLANCHING CELERY 
The finest and most popular Celery for twenty years. It is the 
best market Celery in existence and is grown by the great market 
gardeners in one thousand acre tracts in California. It is a rich, 
golden yellow, and blanches to a crisp texture and is of a very rich 
nutty flavor. 
Our reason for giving this old favorite the honor of our front cover, 
is to call especial attention to the fact that we are headquarters on 
the Pacific coast for the best and purest strains of imported seed of 
this celebrated Celery. 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 50c; M lb. £1.25; lb. $4.50. 
For other Celery see page 21. 
THE LYON ROSE 
One of the most glorious of the new roses. It seems to possess 
all the glowing tints of an autumn sunset and is of perfect shape 
and delightful fragrance. The color is an intense coral red, shaded 
chrome yellow, with shrimp pink at the edges of the petals. It 
was introduced by us for the first time on the Pacific Coast last sea- 
son and those who bought it have been most enthusiastic in their 
praise. 
Field grown plants $1.50 each. 
For other Roses see pages 81 to 87.

immense drooping, wavy, wings — the whole flower of immense 
size. They come four to the stem — good long stout stems, born 
on a strong vigorous vine. Immense size, distinct new shade, 
fragrant, long stems.
