TESTED AND RELIABLE SEEDS 
Tithonia Speciosa 
(MEXICAN SUNFLOWER) 
Tall growing plant usually grown as annual. Very 
desirable as background to borders. Flowers are sim¬ 
ilar to single Dahlias and are a striking orange red 
color. Sow seed in spring when soil is warm. (Pkt. 
15c). 
Vinca Rosea 
(PERIWINKLE) 
Tender annual. Ornamental free-growing plant 
which grows in bushy form and produces round, flat 
disk-like flowers about 2 inches across. Sow in the 
Fall and Spring months. Mixed White and Pink. 
(Pkt. 10c). 
Violet 
Cactus-Flowered Mixture 
Unusual and artistic Zinnias. The giant blooms are 
composed of quilled, tubular petals radiating from 
the center, giving them a close resemblance to the 
Cactus-flowered Dahlia. Highly decorative. (See 
illustration.) (Pkt. 15c). 
EARLY WONDER — The first of a new race of 
dwarf, early flowering Zinnias. When in full bloom 
the plants stand between 12 and 15 inches high, pro¬ 
ducing flowers similar to the Pumila type, borne on 
medium size, long stems, making it a very fine flower 
for cutting. The color is a fiery salmon-cerise pink. 
The stems start from the ground, have no laterals 
and very few leaves, and when growing in mass could 
be described as leafless, producing a solid block of 
flower which is most attractive and desirable for 
bedding. (Pkt. 20c). 
Perennial. Hardy perennial blooming freely through¬ 
out the Spring and Autumn, of easy culture and seed 
may be sown out-of-doors where the plants are to 
remain. The violet is the emblem of modesty. Plant 
in shady location. (Pkt. 25c). 
Violas 
(TUFTED PANSIES) 
Perennial. Height 6 inches. The plants are more 
hardy than pansies and of vigorous growth, forming 
deep-rooted compact tufted clumps. Planted in masses 
or lines they form perfect mats covered with myriads 
of flowers. Plant in shady location. (Pkt. 25c); (Vs oz. 
50c). 
Cornucopia Mixture

forms a small cornucopia, giving the flower the ap¬ 
pearance of a small pompon Dahlia. The colors are 
pink, rose, yellow and buff. (Pkt. 20c).
