NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES FOR 1934 
CALENDULA CHRYSANTHA 
OR SUNSHINE 
Chrysantha is a new Calendula which is outstand¬ 
ing among all varieties known up to the present time. 
Many improvements have been made on Calendulas, 
but no other origination can begin to compare with 
this lovely new-comer from far-off Australia. The 
large flowers are an exquisite shade of clear buttercup 
yellow, with long loosely arranged petals, which 
droop to give the rounded appearance found in our 
favorite Chrysanthemums. Besides adding a bright 
golden splash of color to the garden, Chrysantha is a 
fine cutting variety, with long stiff stems, well adapted 
to combine with other flowers, such a blue delphin¬ 
ium, in bowls or vases. Pkt. 25c. 
CALENDULA GOLDEN RADIO 
The Calendula is becoming one of our most in¬ 
teresting plant families, with the wide variety of 
flower shapes and forms, plant types, and colors 
which are being developed each season. One of the 
most intriguing of the many forms is the type known 
as Radio, first appearing in the orange variety, and 
now Golden Radio has been developed as a companion 
form. The color is a bright golden yellow, in the 
characteristically quilled petals of the flower which 
comes true to both type and color. Pkt. 15c. 
CALENDULA BODGER’S PASTEL 
BEDDING MIXTURE 
Designed especially for the home garden, this mix¬ 
ture contains a balanced combination of the lighter 
shades of Calendulas in the dwarfer growing types. 
Many new shades of apricot, salmon, cream, and white 
are included as well as the better known orange and 
lemon shades. There is also a novel assortment of 
flower types. Especially adapted for border use, the 
stems are long enough to use the flowers for cutting 
also. Pkt. 15c. 
DELPHINIUM CLIVEDEN BEAUTY 
Cliveden Beauty is the same beautiful light blue as 
the Belladonna Delphinium but is a highly improved 
strain. The flowers are larger and the plant a more 
robust grower, very even in height, making a striking 
show in the garden or when used for cutting. Pkt. 15c 
DIMORPHOTHECA—(Star of the Veit, 
African Daisy) 
Most of us know the African Daisies and have ad¬ 
mired their bright blossoms which are among the 
earliest to come in the spring. In a border or massed 
bed they are delightful, but for a really gorgeous 
display of colors in contrast, plant them with bedding 
Petunias. The showiest effect is obtained by using 
mixed colors of African Daisies, and the dark shades 
bedding mixture of Petunias, sowing the seed broad¬ 
cast or setting out the plants informally, giving the 
appearance of being broadcast. The effect is startlingly 
beautiful and this bed or border will be the showiest 
spot in the garden. Dimorphothecas thrive in the 
hottest climates, so they can be grown in any part of 
the country, or in the hottest corner of the garden. 
Special Mixture, per pkt. 10c 
ESCHSCHOLTZIA RAMONA (Frilled 
California Poppies) 
Ramona type California Poppies are beautifully 
frilled and fluted, in the russet and pinkish shades, on 
neat growing plants which form a compact mass of 
flowers. They are very effective when used as a border 
or as a ground cover in the rose garden. 
Ramona Hybrids, pkt. 10c 
GAILLARDIA 
Burgundy. Shining wine-red flowers about 2^ in. 
in diameter, on long stiff stems, from June until 
fall. Blooms from seed the same year, if sown early, 
comes 60% to 70% true from seed. Pkt. 15c. 
GYPSOPHILA 
Pacifica. 4 ft. This variety is especially hardy as it 
withstood the severe frost of winter and extreme heat 
and dryness of summer. The seedlings form dense 
bushes and attain a height of 4 ft. the second year. 
The myriads of tiny pink blossoms appear on the 
slender spreading panicles. Flowers later than the 
Paniculata. Good for cutting. Pkt. 25c. 
HOLLYHOCK 
Double Triumph. Grows 4-5 ft. high and is of 
branching habit, all the stems being studded by pret¬ 
tily waved and fringed flowers which appear in an 
entirely new range of colors and combinations of 
colors. Pkt. 15c. 
HUNNEMANNIA SUN LITE 
Sunlite is a double flowered poppy which is dif¬ 
ferent. Its extra band of petals is produced on the 
outside, rather than the inside of the tulip shaped 
flowers, giving the impression of being open, even 
after the cuplike blossoms have closed for the night. 
The flowers are a bright canary yellow, and the foliage 
of the two-foot bush is a light gray-green. They like 
a sunny position in a well-drained border and flower 
freely in late summer. Pkt. 15c. 
LARKSPUR GIANT IMPERIAL 
BLUE BELL 
Blue Bell is a fine medium blue larkspur, deeper 
than sky blue, yet much lighter than lilac, a color 
up to this time lacking in the giant imperial type. 
The type is decidedly upright, with long basal branched 
flowering spikes, well adapted for cutting. Pkt. 15c. 
LARKSPUR GIANT IMPERIAL LOS 
ANGELES IMPROVED 
This is the same color as that popular stock flowered 
variety, Los Angeles, but in the vastly improved giant 
imperial type. It is the best of this type on the 
market. For greenhouse use, or where a tall, compact 
growing strain is wanted in the garden, this variety 
is preferable. The spikes are long and without side 
branches, making it an excellent kind for cutting. 
The color is a brilliant rose on salmon. Pkt. 15c. 
LARKSPUR STOCK FLOWERED 
ROSAMOND 
(Crop sold out, no seed available until next season) 
Rosamond is a pure rose color, a shade which has 
been entirely lacking in larkspurs up to this time. 
All other rose varieties have faded badly, but this 
one has that rare quality of holding the pure rose 
color until out of flower. It is very uniform in height, 
and comes into flower two weeks earlier than other 
stock flowered varieties. Pkt. 15c. 
LEPTOSYNE—Yellow Daisy 
Stillmani. An easily grown, attractive annual, par¬ 
ticularly valued because it blooms early and con¬ 
tinuously for many weeks. Beautiful daisy-like flowers 
of a pure golden yellow carried on plants growing 
20 in. tall. Pkt. 10c.
