summers. Fkt., 15c. 
"Wild Garden” Flower Seed 
Zinnia Crown o’ Gold 
765 MIXED. This new Zinnia derives its name and distinction 
from the fact that each petal of the flower is overlaid with a 
deep golden-yellow at the base, while carrying out the indi¬ 
vidual flower color at the tip. The effect is a very pleasing 
two-tone color harmony. The color range comprises the more 
popular shades, including old rose, cream, yellow, carmine 
and burnished red; the latter a new shade in Zinnias. Pkt, 
20c.

single flowers in red, white and blue shades. For bloom out¬

743 OCULATA COERULEA, BLUE BOUQUET. Of late years 
the Viscarias have advanced considerably in general favor 
as effective bedding plants. This novelty shows a develop¬ 
ment in the habit of the plant, which is of strikingly erect 
growth and has the appearance of an elegant bouquet, thus 
distinguishing it from the rather spreading nature of its 
tribe. The flowers are larger than those of the ordinary Vis¬ 
caria oculata coerulea and of a more beautiful shade of 
blue. Hardy annual. Blooms from July until frost. Height, 
12 to 18 inches. Fkt., 20c.
