No plant of late years is so popular or such a 
sensation as this fragrant pink. 
THREE GARDEN GEMS 
YOU SHOULD GROW 
DIANTHUS BEATRIX —A strong, compact 
grower; fine to use either as a border or in a 
bed. Last year our sales ran into thousands of 
plants, and this year finds the demand increas¬ 
ing. The plant is of easy culture and blooms 
almost constantly. The flower, which is salmon 
pink in color, has a spicy, carnation-like fra¬ 
grance, and is borne on stiff stems, lasting for 
days when cut. Ask to see them when visiting 
our salesrooms. Fine grown plants, just starting 
to bloom: 
2j/2" Pots, per dozen, $1.50 
PENTSTEMON —A fine new stock of these 
perennials are all ready for planting now. Four 
colors from which to make selections—Lavender, 
White, Pink, and Sierra Madre (red). These 
are most effective in the gardens, with their tall 
spikes of bell-shaped flower. Blooming almost 
constantly during the summer months, and often 
lasting late into the fall and early winter. These 
plants are very hardy and practically free from 
all pests. You should have these in your garden. 
Growing in 3" Pots (4 colors), dozen, $1.25 
COLEUS —These most decorative plants are 
one of the most colorful of all foliage plants. 
When used in the garden, their colorful leaves 
make a most brilliant effect. They can be used 
as individual plants or in larger gardens for 
mass effect. They also make very satisfactory 
pot plants, and are very effective to use in the 
semi-shaded parts of a patio or garden. We 
have a collection of these which is perhaps the 
finest in Southern California, having selected 
them for propagation for many seasons. These 
are grown in three sizes: 
2" Pots, per dozen, $1.00 
3" Pots, per dozen, $1.50 
4" Pots, per dozen, $2.50
