These simple annuals are valuable for summer 
blooming. They produce a profusion of flowers which are 
excellent for cutting, having unsurpassed keeping qual¬ 
ities. Beautiful and of easy culture. Height 2 feet. 
Double Fringed Hybrids (Mixed). A very fine 
strain indeed, including all colors from light to dark.

hence the fringed appearance. This splendid mixture 
embraces many fine art shades. 
Single Varieties (Mixed). Known as Painted 
Daisies. Many handsome colors and combinations 
included, such as golden-yellow, ivory-white zoned 
sulphur-yellow at middle of blossom, wall-flower red 
with yellow zone about a central brown disc, etc.
