NASTURTIUMS 
1743— DOUBLE SCARLET GLEAM. This 
is the gleam nasturtium that has created such 
a sensation this past year. Blooms are a fiery 
orange scarlet, comparable to the brilliance of 
Scarlet Sage. The individual blooms are im¬ 
mense in size—2 or 3 inches across and larger 
than any known type of Nasturtium. The 
fragrance of the bloom is very pronounced and 
the foliage is lush green. The contrast of the
