DOUBLE NASTURTIUM NOVELTIES 
FOR 1935 (Bodger) 
All American Gold Medal Winners 
We are glad to be able to offer for the 1935 season the follow¬ 
ing two sensational Double Nasturtiums. 'The stock seed is 
guaranteed to be grown by the originator and we are certain that 
this strain is the best that can be obtained from any source. This 
type is of semi-trailing habit and is a new development in Nas¬ 
turtiums. The plant forms a vigorous bush which throws out short 
runners averaging 18 inches. The flowers are very large and 
double and exceedingly sweet scented. Another feature is that 
the blooms stand well above the foliage and are excellent for 
cutting; well adapted for pot culture.

DWARF GIANT 
FRINGED PETUNIAS 
MICHELL’S 1935 INTRODUCTIONS 
We are pleased to offer for the 1935 season the following two 
splendid Novelty Petunias. After extensive trials and study of 
innumerable varieties these two have been selected as very out¬ 
standing. They are unique in coloring, flowers large and beautifully 
fringed; plants exceedingly dwarf. 
MICHELL’S “ROSALIND” 
Probably the most beautiful and striking coloring of all large 
flowering single Petunias. The large well fringed flowers are a 
brilliant carmine rose boldly striped with pure white. The mar¬ 
velous contrast of these two distinct colors makes this variety en¬ 
tirely outstanding. 
Pkt., 25c.; $1.25 per large pkt. 
MICHELL’S “VIOLET PRINCE” 
Another distinct color and companion to the above Novelty 
“Rosalind.” The flowers are just as large and fringed. The color 
is a velvety violet blue and purest white; this is something abso¬ 
lutely new. 
Pkt., 25c.; $1.25 per large pkt. 
Petunia, All Double Victorious 
LARGE FLOWERING 
DOUBLE PETUNIAS 
The latest development in Double Petunias is the new All- 
Double strain which produces 100% of Double Flowers. We offer 
the following three selected varieties in this strain and feel quite 
certain that they will prove a sensation. 
All Double Victorious Mixed. An extra dwarf giant mixed 
Petunia which produces 100% double flowered plants. The habit 
of growth is very dwarf and compact, the flowers large and fully 
double, in many brilliant and fancy colorings. Very free flower¬ 
ing; an exceptionally fine type for pot culture as the plants 
seldom grow more than 10 inches in height. Pkt., 50c.; $1.25 
per large pkt. 
Carmine Queen (World Beauty){All Double). An exceptionally 
fine dwarf type; the color a beautiful rosy carmine, flowers very 
double. Other characteristics same as above variety. Pkt., 
50c.; $3.00 per large pkt. 
White Queen (All Double). Pure white flowers, very double and 
beautifully fringed; extra dwarf and free flowering. Pkt., 50c.; 
$3.00 per large pkt. 
The above varieties are originations of Mr. T. Sakata. 
GIANT FLOWERING 
SINGLE PETUNIA 
MARTHA WASHINGTON 
1935 NOVELTY (Waller-Franklin) 
An All American Winner 
A new break in Petunias. Martha Washington is a ruffled or 
frilled dwarf compact type. The growth is about 9 inches high 
and the plants literally smothered with "blooms 3 inches in diameter. 
The coloring is a blush pink with the center veined a wine red, 
deepening at the base of the throat; the veining is so unique that 
the blooms resemble a Pelargonium, hence the name.

PERIWINKLE BLUE 
1935 NOVELTY (Macdonald)
