Nasturtium 
One of the most popular of tender annuals which is valuable 
alike for bedding, borders and cutting. Few plants are more 
easily grown or remain longer in bloom. Flowers are in many 
brilliant shades ranging from creamy white through rose, light 
pink and scarlet together with yellow, orange, brown, maroon, 
etc., and many flowers are brilliantly spotted. Blooms abund¬ 
antly from early summer until late fall. 
Seed is usually sown outdoors as soon as the weather is set¬ 
tled. If desired can be started in the house and transplanted. 
A New Double Sweet Scented Nasturtium 
599 GOLDEN GLEAM. The plant forms a vigorous, large bush 
which throws out short runners, averaging eighteen inches. 
The double flowers commence to come as soon as the plant 
nears complete development and at the time it is in full 
bloom, the entire plant, including the runners, is a blaze of 
color. The large, golden-yellow flowers average 2 % to 3 
inches across. They are borne on erect, stiff stems 6 inches 
in length. Consequently, the flowers stand well above the 
foliage, an arrangement which adds immeasurably to the 
showy appearance of the plant. Very fragrant. Oz., 50c; pkt.,

many months. Sow the seed indoors early in March or outdoors
