New Cosmos 
Orange Flare 
See color illustration on 
second cover page 
Without doubt the finest Cosmos 
thus far presented to the gardeners of 
the world, receiving the first prize 
Gold Medal in the All-America Seed 
Selections for 1935. Plants come into 
bloom in ten to twelve weeks after the 
seed is sown, and are a mass of flaming 
golden yellow when in full flower. The 
stems are long and wiry, which makes 
Orange Flare extremely useful in 
many kinds of floral work. We 
strongly urge you to try this new 
Cosmos this year. Pkg. 25c.

THE FAMOUS 
Hollyhock 
Delphiniums 
Wrexham Strain 
The Wrexham Delphiniums, com¬ 
monly known as “Hollyhock” Del¬ 
phiniums, have become immensely 
popular, and for good reasons. The 
flowers are unusually large, and 
carried on long, stiff stems that often 
stand 8 feet tall; these stems are 
lined for nearly 3 feet with the lovely 
blooms which vary in color from 
soft blue and pale lavender to mid¬ 
night blue, with the “bee,” or 
center, in contrasting colors. The 
Wrexham Delphiniums were origi¬ 
nated by Mr. Watkin Samuel, of 
Wrexham, England. All of the seed 
we offer is European grown, and has 
been saved from selected plants, 
and from flowers of the most pro¬ 
nounced colors. Pkg. 45c; large 
pkg. $1.50. 
Annual 
Canterbury Bell 
A new variety of Annual Cam¬ 
panula which comes into flower in 
less than six months after sowing the 
seed—a much shorter time than other 
varieties. Thus you can have flowers 
at almost any time of the year, as the 
plants may be grown indoors. The 
plants are 2 feet or more in height, 
and usually carry seven or eight 
spikes of flowers. Customers who 
grew this Campanula last year were 
highly pleased with the results. 
Offered in mixture only, which will 
contain pink, rose, white, light blue, 
and dark blue. Pkg. 15c. 
Our Vegetable Seeds 
Will make your garden a source of profit 
Not that we expect you to become a 
market-gardener, but rather that you grow 
the smaller vegetables for summer use. 
Lettuce, radishes, beets, beans, onions, car¬ 
rots, peas, and others are adapted to home- 
gardens. The collection on page 36 is our 
choice of good varieties. We know you will 
like them, and the price is mighty reasonable. 
My Delphiniums are the talk of the 
neighborhood. The Virginia Stock was 
beautiful as well as all the other flowers I 
have received from you.—J. V. C., Penn 
Yan, New York. 
Calendula Chrysantha 
Butterfly Delphiniums 
Sunshine Calendula 
Calendula Chrysantha 
An All-America Selection of 1934, and pre¬ 
sented to our customers last year to their 
great satisfaction and pleasure. The flowers 
are double, much larger than those of the 
older forms of Calendula, are clear buttercup- 
yellow, and give a brilliant splash of color in 
the garden. In the arrangement of the petals 
the blooms resemble a chrysanthemum. Long* 
stiff stems make Sunshine useful as a cut- 
flower, showing at its best when arranged 
with delphiniums or other blue flowers. The 
plants are upright in habit, and bloom freely.
