Annual Pinks 
Annual Culture A 
We should think more garden lovers would 
grow Annual Pinks. They start blooming in 
such a short time after sowing and keep it up all 
summer. Sometimes, with slight protection, they 
will live over and flower again the next year. The 
plants are uniformly neat, about 8 inches high 
and make a continuous parade of lively colors. 
"/ bought a package of seed of your Pinks last 
spring. They are the best seed I've ever bought

Foxglove 
Hardy Biennial Culture E 
2725—Digitalis The Shirley. Clusters of tall 
spikes of Foxglove lend a stateliness to a gar¬ 
den better than any other flower we know. 
The spikes of bloom are 3 to 5 feet tall in pink, 
rose and white and as they open gradually up 
the stalk, it gives them a very long blooming 
period. If the spikes are cut off before the 
flowers go to seed, a second bloom is often 
obtained. We cannot imagine a garden with¬ 
out Foxglove as there is no other flower to take 
its place. 
Pkt. 10c; Lg. Pkt. 20c; Oz. 30c; Oz. $1.00. 
2725—Showing a view of our Foxglove growing 
for seed. Only the best ones are saved.

"Last year I bought a packet of Foxglove seed 
from you and started my plants. Every seed 
gretv, I guess, for I had so many plants. All 
but 4 or 5 lived through the winter and are dandy 
plants. A great many people have driven b\ 
just to see them."
