We are fortunate enough to secure exclu¬ 
sive sale of the seed from Sydney B. Mitch¬ 
ell’s own garden. His stock was obtained 
from John Nicholls of Scotland, and W. M. 
Christy of England, who, between them, 
raised most of the named forms given 
awards at the R. H. S. trial gardens at Wis- 
ley, England. In mixed colors. 50c pkt. 
ICELAND POPPIES (Nudicaule). You who 
are in the habit of visiting the beautiful 
Santa Maria Inn half-way between San 
Francisco and Los Angeles are no doubt 
familiar with the remarkable strain of these 
most effective cut-flowers developed by 
Frank J. McCoy, manager of the Inn. Mr. 
McCoy has built an international reputation 
for the Inn by filling it with exquisitely ar¬ 
ranged bouquets of the most gorgeous flow¬ 
ers obtainable. Most of these blooms he 
grows himself, and Iceland poppies have 
been his particular hobby. He has scoured 
the world for seeds, and has selected and 
re-selected until he has developed a strain 
that is unquestionably the finest in America 
and probably unexcelled anywhere. 
Iceland poppies, like gladiolus, may be 
planted in succession. Bloom approximately 
three months from the time they are 
planted. They are most hardy for early 
blooms, as they stand frost even when other 
plants wither and blacken. Very floriferous, 
with long stems, and most excellent cut- 
flowers. 
At its best sown in late fall, either where 
it will flower, or in boxes and transplanted 
when young. 
We offer exclusively: 
Santa Maria Inn strain of Orange and 
Gold, Frank J. McCoy re-selections (quan¬ 
tity limited, and subject to stock)—Imported 
originally from Australia, and ranked by 
ICELAND POPPIES 
Mr. McCoy as one of the finest strains ever 
purchased. Large flowers of orange and 
gold coloring, completely distinct from any 
other strain. 35c pkt.

LINARIA FAIRY BOUQUET—See Wildflower

LUPINES - HARTWEGGI GIANTS, Mixed.

they might easily be called “delphinium 
flowered.” Three to four feet tall, of base 
branching habit, and having four to six 
bloom spikes to the plant. Easily grown. 
Colors include dark blue, sky blue, rose, and 
white, mixed. Delivery Sept. 1. 25c pkt.

golden yellow nasturtium comes direct from 
the introducer. 15c pkt.
