NOVELTIES 
BODGER ORIGINATIONS EXTRAORDINARY 
FOR 1934 
NASTURTIUM DOUBLE SCARLET GLEAM (Bodger) 
Ever since we introduced Golden Gleam in 1931, interest has run high in 
anticipation of new colors in the double, sweet scented Gleam type of nasturtium. 
In introducing Scarlet Gleam this year we are giving the first answer to this 
demand for additional colors. 
Those who have seen Scarlet Gleam growing, enthusiastically proclaim it 
even more intensely dazzling in color than the showy Golden Gleam. The 
flowers are a fiery orange scarlet, a color comparable to the brilliance of Scarlet 
Sage, or seeing a row of the plants one might visualize a showy border of scarlet 
Geraniums. The individual blooms are of an immense size, almost three inches 
across, much larger than any Nasturtium ever known. The sweet fragrance is 
more pronounced, and the double flowers more uniformly well formed. The 
foliage is the same lush green characteristic of Golden Gleam, and the contrast 
of the large, double, fiery orange scarlet flowers above their cool restful green 
leaves attracts and holds the eye at once, while the ease with which they can be 
grown under almost any conditions will make Scarlet Gleam the most popular 
all around annual. 
The plants are semi dwarf, throwing short runners from a well rounded free 
flowering bush, with long wiry stems bearing the numerous flowers well above 
the foliage, which gives the effect of a solid mass of color.

NASTURTIUM DOUBLE GLEAM HYBRIDS (Bodger) 
With the introduction of these Gleam Hybrids the flower world is enriched 
by an advance in the forward progress of the plant world. As the Dahlia 
Flowered Zinnias in 1924 tolled the death knell of the single Zinnia, Double 
Gleam Nasturtiums in 1934 are the fountain head from which will issue the 
flower of tomorrow in the Nasturtium family. The Hybrids are a collection of 
gorgeously colored, large, well formed flowers of such dazzling beauty that the 
mind hesitates to credit the evidence of the eyes. Colors certainly never dreamed 
of before in a double nasturtium abound in profusion—glorious flowers of 
salmon, golden yellow, orange scarlet, cerise, cream yellow, orange, crimson, and 
gold flushed scarlet combine with the foliage of fresh green. They thrive under 
almost any cultural conditions, and this factor, combined with the brilliance of 
their colors, assures Gleam Hybrids of a universal popularity. 
The plants are semi dwarf, throwing short runners from well rounded free 
flowering bushes. Stems are long, and bear the flowers well above the foliage 
of the plant. In the garden or for cutting no flower could be more lovely.
