NORTHRUP. KING 8c CO. ’ S 
Old Fashioned Garden 
This is a mixture of many varieties of 
annual flowers including the sorts so popu¬ 
lar in the old gardens of years ago. Beds 
or borders seeded to this mixture are al¬ 
ways a source of interest and many sur¬ 
prises. Includes both tall and dwarf varie¬ 
ties. 
Painted Tongue—Salpiglossis 2Yi ft. 
Many have called it the orchid of hardy 
annual flowers. It has individuality and 
colorings found in no other variety. The 
blooms are funnel-shaped, something like a 
petunia, only larger, and are borne on long 
stems. Several blooms are sometimes on 
one stem. The range of colors includes blue, 
brown, red, purple, rose and violet, and 
nearly every flower is veined with a glint 
of gold. The color veining in all the blooms 
is marvelous. Of easy culture, blooms dur¬ 
ing June, July, August. 
PANSY 
Orchid Flowered Mixture 
A type quite recently introduced, with 
petals beautifully ruffled and waved. Rare 
light shades. 
Parisian—Fine Mixture 
A very showy mixture of vigorous, com¬ 
pact growth. A fine bedding strain. 
Fine—All Colors Mixed 
A mixture of low price, and very satis¬ 
factory quality for bedding purposes. 
Giant Fancy—All Colors Mixed 
A mixture of large flowering sorts. 
N. K. & Co.’s Sterling 
This mixture is as fine as we are able 
to obtain. The blooms are unrivaled for 
diversity of coloring and marking. 
This hardy annual is a favorite every¬ 
where. The bright, smiling faces of pansies 
give cheer all through the late Spring, 
Summer and Fall. A moist, sunny location 
with rich, loamy soil is required for best 
results. Cool weather produces larger 
blooms. Some specialists claim the plants 
must be transplanted twice to get large 
flowers—once from a seed box to a bed and 
then to an open garden. 
Bugnot 
A superb, blotched sort with extra large 
flowers in brown-red and bronze shades. 
Phlox Drummondii 
Cassiers—3 and 5 Blotched 
A giant fancy sort, mostly delicate light 
shades with dark blotches. 
Germania or Masterpiece 
Curled and fluted. The border of each 
petal is much curled or ruffled, giving the 
flower the appearance of being double. Dark 
velvety shades predominate. 
Pinks or Dianthus 
Giant Trimardeau—Mixed 
This mixture has a complete color range 
but the more popular shades are the dark 
ones. Flowers well rounded and not quite 
so large as some of the other varieties. 
This is an excellent mixture for those who 
do not require the extra large blooms.
