4 MICHELL’S NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES IN FLOWER SEEDS 
NEW AFRICAN MARIGOLD 
Guinea Gold 
A very valuable novelty that has created a sensation as a most 
desirable cut flower; it is a distinct type, producing no singles 
whatsoever, the flowers coming 100% double and semi-double. 
In color, a clear orange flushed with gold; it is very loose petaled 
and lacks the odor of the regular African Marigold. Trade pkt., 
40c.; $1.50 per oz. 
Nasturtium, Golden Gleam 
NASTURTIUM 
GOLDEN GLEAM (Novelty) 
This new type is of semi-trailing habit and is a new develop¬ 
ment in Nasturtiums. The plant forms a vigorous large bush, 
which throws out short runners averaging 18 inches. The sweet 
scented, large double flowers are of a golden yellow color and 
average 2 to 3 inches across. They are borne on erect stiff stems 
6 inches in length and stand well above the foliage; splendid for 
cutting. For the florist who grows pot plants this variety is a good 
proposition and well grown plants in 3 inch pots will find a ready 
sale. The seed we offer is strictly originator’s stock. Trade pkt., 
15c.; 50c. per oz.; 34 lb., $1.50.
