CARTERS NEW ESCHSCHOLTZIA FOR 1913. 
THE RAJAH. 
We have again the pleasure of introducing to our customers a new Eschscholtzia, 
which we venture to say will be as well received as its numerous predecessors. 
The Rajah is another outcome of the various crossings which we have described 
with some detail in previous copies of our catalogue, and brings a new colour, which 
can best be described as a purplish carmine. 
No. 1598. Price per packet, is. 
Carters New Hybrids 
contain many shades and tints of colour not yet seen in Eschscholtzias, 
intervening between the pale rosea and the intense Mikado, and between the lemon 
Californica and the brilliant Carmine King, giving a play of colour at once interesting 
and brilliant. 
No. 1576. Price per packet, is. 
No 635. The Mikado. Award of Merit, R.H.S. 
The Mikado was the result of a cross between Mandarin , which we introduced in 1879, and 
Carmine King , of 1906. The blend of these two colours has produced a brilliant orange-crimson, 
suffused with the lustre of the Carmine King.
