New Calendula Chrysantha 
New Annual Canterbury Bells 
ASTER—SUPER GIANT LOS ANGELES— Aster Los 
Angeles is the first of this giant race and how beautifully 
it upholds the romantic traditions of its namesake, the 
glamorous city of sunshine and flowers. The color is a 
serenely pure shell pink in flowers which are full pet- 
aled, deep, and unusually large, yet artistically graceful 
in the feathery effect of the interlacing petals. Loosely 
arranged in a tall pewter vase the long stemmed flowers 
lend a feeling of quiet dignity to any decorative arrange¬ 
ments. In the annual border or cut flower bed in the 
garden, they stand majestically above their fellow asters, 
and show up to best advantage when combined with a 
planting of the Blue Lace Flower, Didicus. Pkt. 25c, 
1/4 oz. $1.50. 
CALENDULA—Art Shades —Pastel bedding mixture. 
Contains delicate apricots, picotees, orange shades, 
cream tones and many other tints. Pkt. 15c, oz. 75c. 
CALENDULA—Sunshine or Chrysantha —Chrysantha is a 
new Calendula which is outstanding among all varieties 
known at the present time. Many improvements have 
been made on Calendulas, but no other origination can 
begin to compare with this lovely new comer from far 
off Australia. The large flowers are an exquisite shade 
of clear buttercup yellow, with long loosely arranged 
petals, which droop to give the rounded appearance 
found in our favorite Chrysanthemums. Besides adding a 
bright golden splash of color to the garden, Chrysantha 
is a fine cutting variety, with long stiff stems, well adapted 
to combine with other flowers such as Blue Delphinium, 
in bowls or vases. Pkt. 15c, oz. 75c. 
ANNUAL CANTERBURY BELLS— Few flowers are 
more popular in the Spring garden than Canterbury 
Bells, and we have always wished we might have them 
over a longer season. This is now possible, and without 
waiting a whole year for the first flower from seed. The 
new Annual Canterbury Bells make a plant that is loaded 
with flowers less than five months after the seed is sown, 
and by making successive plantings all through the early 
Spring we can have these lovely flowers all thru the 
summer and early fall. The colors are the same as in the 
perennial type, including the various shades of blue, pink, 
rose and white. Pkt. 25c, J /4 oz. $1.00. 
MARIGOLD—Guinea Gold —Bringing thoughts of Span¬ 
ish doubloons and buried riches, a treasure chest for your 
garden! And what a prize we have in this Marigold. 
Brighter than any treasure the pirates ever dreamed of, 
the masses of lovely blossoms cascade down the sides of 
the plant in a pyramid of flowing gold. Arranged in a 
jet black or cobalt blue bowl, Guinea Gold can scarcely 
be surpassed for decorative effect in any part of the 
house, especially as the characteristic Marigold odor has 
almost entirely disappeared. Pkt. 15c, oz. $1.80. 
MARIGOLD—Tagetes Signata Pumila (Golden Gleam)— 
This is the border Marigold which has been receiving 
so much publicity in the garden magazines lately, and 
you cannot afford to be without a border of it in your 
garden if you would be up on the latest in garden 
favorites. Dwarf and compact in habit, the plant is cov¬ 
ered with dozens of small single orange flowers through¬ 
out the summer. For long blooming period and brilliant 
coloring, Golden Gem has few equals as an edging plant. 
Pkt. 1 5c, oz. $2.40. 
PETUNIA—PINK GEM— This is the first of a charming 
new race of miniature Petunias. It forms a neat compact 
plant five to six inches high, literally smothered with deep 
pink blooms. A plant eight inches in diameter will carry 
as many as twenty-five to thirty blooms in flower at one 
time. Individual blooms are two inches in diameter. This 
miniature Petunia will be indispensable for borders, 
window boxes, pots, rock gardens and for bedding. 
Winner of Gold Medal in the 1934 All American 
selections. Pkt. 25c. 
ZINNIA—Lilliput Tom Thumb Mixture —Tom Thumb is 
without exception the very dwarfest Zinnia known. The 
plants are rounded and compact, 4 to 6 inches high, 
literally covered with well formed flowers of the lilliput 
type. The color mixture includes red, orange, yellow, 
pink, rose and other pastel shades. It is a fine border 
plant, especially for the hot dry sections of the country, 
and is the best Zinnia to use in pots or window boxes. 
Pkt. 10c, V 4 oz. 60c.
