G. C. WATSON. PHILADELPHIA, TRADE LIST, SPRING, 1902. 
Watson’s Reliable Flower Seeds. 
If you want “select strains” of the principal florists’ flower seeds give Watson’s a trial. 
Twenty-five years’ experience behind every order filled. It is not what the seed costs you, but 
what it will produce that counts. We go to extreme pains to get the very best regardless 
of cost. Our strains of Aster, Cyclamen, Petunia and other florist flowers are especially fine and 
will give the best results. Kinds right; prices right; no trash; and they are fresh and clean. 
Will appreciate trial order.

A*) 'Celosia Spicata is a good thing resurrected — it 
is one of the most charming of all the Celosias and 
might be fittingly called “ The Rainbow Celosia" on 
account of its charming variety of color. The flowers 
open fresh bright rose, changing gradually to a silvery 
white, anti having all the intermediate tints according 
to age. The elegant, long-stemmed flowers preserve 
their beauty even in unfavorable weather and are 
excellent for cutting. 1'hey can also be dried and 
treated as an ” Everlasting.” (See cut.)
