MARIGOLD 
Marigolds are hardy annuals, in dwarf and tall varieties, growing from 6 inches 
to 3 feet high. The flowers are of various shades of yellow and brown. The tall 
varieties are excellent for tall bedding or background work, while the dwarf varie¬ 
ties are fine for borders. Marigolds do so well in our section you can almost call 
them native flowers. Easy to grow and every flower garden should have some.

PHLOX, DRUMMONDI GRANDIFLORA 
No flower does better in our section than the Phlox. It is undoubtedly the showiest and easiest 
of all annuals to raise. Seed can be sown in the open ground as soon as all danger of frost 
is past and in a few weeks your beds will be a blaze of glory. We offer the Grandiflora type

Nasturtiums 
One ounce sows 20 feet of single row. 
Did you have them last summer? If not, why not? The Nasturtiums, 
with four or five other ornamental plants, leads everything else in the garden. 
They surpass the Geranium in brilliancy. These flowers require next to no 
care and thrive best in rather poor soil, enduring heat and dry weather 
remarkably well. No flower is as desirable for table decoration. Every 
housewife prizes the seed pods on account of their pungent, peppery taste, 
and feels her pickles incomplete without them. The flowers are of all colors, 
from deep chocolate to nearly white, and blossom in greatest profusion until 
killed by frost. They are very effective when planted in borders, also well 
suited for vases and baskets. Do not let a summer pass without having a 
bed of these refreshing flowers. You cannot but love them if you know them. 
No more trouble to grow Nasturtiums than to grow Lettuce or Peas or Beans. 
They bloom from early summer until killed by frost. An excellent salad. 
DWARF MIXED. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; Yt lb., 50c; Yz lb., 75c; lb., $1.25. 
TALL MIXED. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; % lb., 70c. 
NASTURTIUM (Golden Gleam)—This plant forms a vigorous, large bush, 
which throws out short runners, averaging eighteen inches. The 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 semi-double flowers average two 
and one-half to three inches across. They 
are borne on erect, stiff stems six inches 
in length. Consequently the flowers stand 
well above the foliage, an arrangement which 
adds immeasurably to the showy appearance 
of the plant. 
When well grown these flowers have the 
appearance of a fully double flower, and are 
most attractive. An ordinary sized bouquet, 
when allowed to remain in a room for a 
short period of time will fill the room with 
musk-like fragrance. Heretofore Double 
Nasturtiums have been only propagated by 
cuttings. Pkt., 25c.
