Nicholson’s High Quality Flower Seeds 
Make Your Flower Garden “Home” 
In this old world of ours, with its dangers and defeats, with its senseless hurry and worry—the garden is our refuge and strength. 
Gardening is a pleasant occupation to which one may devote his leisure hours by giving expression to his individuality. He can plan and 
plant his garden to suit himself. He can create and he can change; he may preserve or destroy. 
The flower garden with proper attention may be made to display its fullest glory throughout the growing season. It gives your home the 
“atmosphere”—that intangible something that gives beauty, dignity and pleasantness to the place—that causes one to love it and makes it 
‘HOME”.
