FLOWER SEEDS—(Continued) 
DIANTHUS (Pinks) “HP”—Twelve to 16 in. 
the time-honored garden pinks with their 
single or double carnation-like flowers 
make excellent border plants for modern 
gardens. Gay blossoms on strong stems 
come in a variety of rich colors and their 
stripes and markings make them espe¬ 
cially attractive. They are of easy cul¬ 
ture. 
Single Mixed. Pkt. 10c. 
Double Mixed. Pkt. 10c. 
DIGITALIS (Foxglove) “HP”— Four to five 
ft. Much of' the quaint charm of an old 
fashioned garden is lost when Foxglove is 
left out of the picture created by such a 
display as grandmother used to picture 
with her garden. Their long spikes are 
crowded with large thimble-shaped blos¬ 
soms beautifully spotted on the exposed 
interior surfaces. They are ornamental 
subjects for naturalizing among shrubs 
or in the background of a hardy border. 
Pkt. Mixed 10c. 
Forget-me-not 
ESCHSCHOLTZIA (California Poppy) “HA”—Twelve in. To most 
of you this flower probably seems rather common. You’ll change 
your mind if you grow a bed of California Poppies of mixed 
colors ranging from yellow, through orange, cream and pink. 
Try them. Be surprised by the beauty of the new colors. Pkt. 
Mixed 10c. 
EVERLASTING FLOWERS—We offer a mixture of various flowers 
suitable for drying for winter blooms. Our mixture contains 
practically all the flowers suited to this purpose. Drying them 
is a simple matter. Cut before fully expanded, bunch like sweet 
peas and hang on a line in a warm, dark, dry room. They will 
dry thoroughly in ten days. Pkt. Mixed 15c. 
FORGET-ME-NOT (Myosotis) “HP”—Six to 8 in. While this charm¬ 
ing spring flower will grow in the open border, there is some 
partially shaded damp spot in almost every garden where it will 
flourish and be a joy. The variety we offer is abundant in its 
bloom, flowers covering the plant, excluding the foliage. The 
flowers, a clear Wedgwood blue with tiny yellowish eyes, are 
borne in profusion. Start early for flowers the first season or 
sow in summer for blooms the following spring. Pkt. 10c. 
FOUR O'CLOCK (Marvel of Peru) “TP”—Tall, 2 ft. Treated as 
an annual, this thrifty family produces plants suitable for grow¬ 
ing as a hedge or as a low screen along a fence. The flowers 
have an interesting habit—they open in the late afternoon, re¬ 
main expanded all night, and close again the next morning. 
Bloom from midsummer to frost. Pkt. Mixed 10c. 
GAILLARDIA (Blanket Flower) (Grandiflora Portola Hybrids) 
“HP”—Two ft. Tones of orange, yellow, red and maroon, often 
beautifully combined in a single blossom, make these flowering 
plants gay ornaments of the garden all summer long. The foliage 
of soft green combines well with the flowers. The blossoms are 
2 to 3 inches across. Portola is semi-double of magnificent size 
and broad overlapping petals golden tipped around glowing 
center of bronzy red. Pkt. 15c. Grandiflora Mixed. Pkt. 10c.
