CHARLOTTE M. HAINES, ROCKFORD, ILL., SEEDS GROWN BY A WOMAN 
HAINES BEAUTIFUL PETUNIAS 
Painted Daisies 
The Most Gaily Colored Flowers Grown 
NEW SINGLE HYBRIDS. Large, bright and 
showy, daisy-like flowers ranging in colors 
from white and light pink to deep red with 
bright yellow centers, blooms in spring and 
again in the fall. The flowers are invaluable 
for cut flowers being borne on long stems 
and lasting .a long time. The foliage is most 
elegant in its finely cut, fern-like form and 
fresh deep green color. Nothing surpasses 
these flowers for profusion of bloom during 
the season and being so easily grown they 
ought to have a place in every garden whether 
large or small; height 2 feet. Hardy peren¬ 
nial. Pkt. 10c; Vs oz. 36c; l/j oz. 98c. 
NEW DOUBLE HYBRIDS. Hardy perennial; 
large double beautiful flowers, resembling a 
refined China Aster. Height 1% ft. Pkt. 10c. 
Giants of California 
A California Variety of Great Beauty, 
Size and Luxuriance 
The flowers are of immense size, often 
measuring 5 to 6 inches across. The 
variety of colors, markings, veinings 
and blotchings distinguish them from 
all others. They are usually ruffled 
and fringed on the edges, and present 
a great variety of beautiful colors. 
With the exception of Haines In¬ 
vincible Petunia, this is the finest 
Petunia ever grown. Equally de¬ 
sirable in the house or grown in 
beds out of doors. Seed is very 
fine and care must be used not to 
plant the seed too deep. Pkt. 12c. 
Star of California 
Velvety Purple Shaded Crimson, 
with a Star-Shaped White Blotch 
This is an outstanding variety of the Bal¬ 
cony type, but with the size and beauty of the 
California Giants. For window boxes, hanging 
baskets, and vases, this is what you have beer 
waiting for. The stems are almost completely 
covered with rich purplish flowers, which are 
glorified with a sheen of crimson; but the crowning feature is 
the pure white star in the form of a blotch in the throat of each 
blossom. The branches are extra long, and hang over the edge 
of the box or vase, presenting a beautiful appearance. Pkt. 12c. 
Rose of Heaven 
Rose of Heaven 
Rich Brilliant Rose Color with an 
Inconspicuous White Throat 
. A clear rosy pink flower of good Giants of 
Size and very beautiful. The California 
throat is nearly the same color as 
the petals, very few having the white throats eo common in 
most pink Petunias. While not as large a flower as my won¬ 
derful Balcony Queen Petunias shown on page 19, they are 
much larger than the Rosy Morn, which we have all known 
and grown for many years. A bed of Rose of Heaven Pe¬ 
tunias is unusually attractive, and as they remain in bloom 
all summer, gives a delightful touch of color to a yard that 
might otherwise be dull and dreary. Pkt. 10c; % oz. 48c; 
72 oz. $1.40. 
Haines Mammoth Flowered Invincible 
The Largest and Most Beautiful Petunia Ever Grown 
An entirely new class—distinct from any others in the 
exquisite colorings, and in the general appearance of the 
flowers. These must be seen to be appreciated as all are 
fringed and fluted in every conceivable manner. This is 
without question the largest, prettiest and most wonderful 
Petunia ever grown. Equally desirable in pots in the house 
or grown in beds out of doors. Seed is very fine and care 
must be used not to plant the seed too deep. The colors 
are startlingly brilliant—some solid colors, but mostly a 
combination of colors never seen before in one flower All 
of my seed is hand picked, and selected from the largest 
and heaviest frilled flowers showing the finest colorings. 
Pkt. 15c; 4 Pkts. 50c. 
Three New Petunias 
One packet each of the three for only, 54c, postpaid. 
BLUE BEE. An outstanding variety and a wonderful 
variety to use in any location where Petunias are grown 
r lowers are of medium size and of a rich dark blue 
color. There are so few worth while blue flowers that 
my new Blue Bee will be a welcome addition especially 
s0 Popular "Blue Gardens.” Pkt. 12c; V. oz 44c 
DOUBLE ROSY MORN. Just what you have been waiting 
for. The true Rosy Morn color in a double flower Flow- 
THEODOSIA. So many have asked for this popular variety 
that I am now listing with my other “Better varieties ” 
Large flowers of rosy-pink with clearly defined golden center 
with minute stripes. Flowers are heavily frilled or ruffled 
Pkt. 20c; 3 pkts. 50c. 
Petunia Blue Bee 
Haines Fluffy Ruffles 
Fluffy Ruffles 
Beautiful Colors—Heavily Frilled and 
Ruffled—Large Size—Easy to Grow_ 
Sure to Bloom 
The originators of this wonderful strain 
of Petunias claim that the flowers will 
average 4 to 6 inches in diameter, but I 
am content in claiming a size of about 3 
inches. However, the flowers are so heavily 
frilled that a_ blossom 3 inches in diameter 
is often 20 inches or more in circumfer¬ 
ence. Fluffy Ruffles commences to bloom 
very early, and continues in flower all 
through the summer until frosts kill the 
plant to the ground. Easily cultivated. 
All you need is a good soil and sunny lo¬ 
cation. Pkt. 12c. 
Fancy Fringed Double 
My Double Petunias Have Made Me More Friends Than Any 
Other Flower I Grow 
A mixture of the best large flowering and fringed double 
Petunias. It embraces a wide range of colors and shows finer 
combmations than we have heretofore found in any double 
Petunias including delicate mauve, porcelain blue, white, gar- 
net and velvet shades. This carefully hybridized seed will
