Sweet Peas 
complete scale of all the soft distinct shades, 
such as white, yellow, flesh pink, rose pink, 
crimson, light blue and dark blue. The spicy 
fragrance of Stocks perfume the whole garden 
and the abundance of beautiful bloom adds 
greatly to its attraction. If you haven’t been 
growing stocks start this year and we believe 
you will not again be without them. 
Dwarf German 10 Weeks Stocks 
This is the earliest strain to come in bloom 
and while the plants are not so tall or flower 
stalks quite so long as Giant Perfection, they 
are very beautiful and desirable. We advise 
planting both varieties and you will have abun¬ 
dant bloom from early summer until freezing 
weather. 
Dwarf German Finest Mixed, Packet, 10c. 
Giant Perfection Stocks 
Few flowers can compare with this strain of 
stocks. The plants are strong and vigorous, flow¬ 
ers large and produced in abundance. Continues 
in bloom until hard frost. 
Finest Mixed, Packet, 10c. 
Verbena 
Very few plants will make such a gorgeous 
display during the summer months as Verbenas 
or furnish more flowers for cutting. Sow seed 
in open ground in May. They begin flowering 
in July and are a riot of bloom until after frost. 
The brilliant colors range through pink, scarlet, 
purple, white and variations.

Sweet Sultan 
Flowers in a way resemble Centaurea or Bach¬ 
elor Button, but very much larger and finer. One 
of the hardiest and most beautiful annuals. 
Very hardy and easily grown. No flower garden 
is complete without this beautiful annual. 
Ranges in color from pure white through pink 
to purple. 
Packet, 10c. 
Salvia or Scarlet Sage 
A standard bedding plant that keeps the gar¬ 
den bright until late autumn. This plant lends 
itself to many uses such as borders, window 
boxes and pot plants. Foliage is dark green, 
flowers borne on long spikes of brightest scar¬ 
let, fine for brilliant color effects. Height two 
feet. 
Bonfire, finest strain, Packet, 10c. 
Salpiglossis 
Only nature can paint its wonderful colors. 
The blossoms are tubed shaped, much like a Pe¬ 
tunia, but rivaling the latter in beautiful col¬ 
ors displayed. Each flower is veined with a glint 
of gold and is the only flower to our knowledge 
displaying this odd characteristic. Sow seed in 
open ground in spring. Blooms in early summer 
and continues until frost. Try this once and you 
will always sow it. 
Best special mixture, all colors and sorts. 
Packet, 10c; 3 packets 25c.

exceedingly fragrant and range through a most 
SWEET PEAS 
Perhaps no flower grown in this section gives 
greater satisfaction than the Sweet Pea. Our soil 
and climate conditions seem to be ideal and 
Sweet Peas flourish here and reach their great¬ 
est perfection and beauty. Sow as early in spring 
as possible, the earlier the better. Soil should be 
very rich and peas planted deep, 4 to 5 inches; 
the ground should be well mulched with well
