MERIT LIST 
New Marigold Guinea Gold 
GUINEA GOLD. A distinctly different marigold which might 
well be called carnation-flowered. A feature of Guinea Gold is its 
graceful semi-double flowers of pure golden color. Plants produce 
no singles. The marigold odor is also less pronounced. The plant 
is of neat habit, erect, 2 to 2% feet tall, very free blooming, with 
good stems for cut flowers; the most popular novelty we have ever 
offered. Awarded first choice in 1932 by Seedmen’s 
Committee for best recent novelty. Price per %- oz., 
50c; per special pkt., 25c; pkt., 15c. 
Arctotis Hybrids. 
Another of the lovely flowers which have come to 
us from Africa. The hybrids come in a brilliant as¬ 
sortment of showy daisy-like flowers, pre¬ 
dominating in orange and bronzy-red shades, 
but also comprising many lovely shades of rose, 
cream, yellow and salmon. In the milder 
climates they may be classed as a perennial 
but in the northern latitudes they are better 
treated as an annual. They flower within six 
months from seed and bloom profusely through¬ 
out the hot summer season. Price per ^-oz., 
60c; pkt., 10c. 
Rock Hybrids Antirrhinum

compact bushes very suitable for rock and 
alpine gardens. Height, 8 inches, %-oz., 80c;

Pink Gem Petunia 
{Nana Compacta) 
GUINEA GOLD. This is the first of a charming new race of 
miniature Petunias. It forms a neat, compact 
plant five to six inches high, literally smothered with deep pink blooms. A plant eight inches in 
diameter will carry as many as twenty-five to thirty blooms in flower at one time. Individual 
blooms are two inches in diameter. This miniature Petunia will be indispensable for borders, 
window boxes, pots, rock gardens and for bedding. Planted with a dwarf blue Ageratum, the 
effect is most charming. V&-oz., $1.00; pkt., 25c. 
New Nana Compacta Mixed Petunia 
A new strain of Dwarf Compact Petunias. This is the first time it has been possible to offer a 
complete mixture with well-balanced color range in a Dwarf Compact Mixture of this type. Each 
plant forms a ball effect eight to ten inches high and about twelve inches in diameter. The group 
represents many years of careful selection. We believe there is a wide use for this improved strain, 
in pots, window boxes, borders, beds and rock gardens, %-oz., 60c; pkt., 15c.

er and will make a wonderful bedding plant, besides being indispensable for pots and borders, %-oz.,

(florists colors). Each at $1.25 per oz. Large pkt., 25c.; pkt., 10c.

pact, four to six inches high, literally covered with well-formed flowers of the Lilliput type. The
