NOVELTIES IN FLOWER SEEDS 
ALL-AMERICA SELECTIONS FOR 1936 
Aster—Super Qiant “El Monte” ( Special Mention). Pkt. 50c. 
Deep glowing crimson, composed of abundant quantities of daintily interlaced, plume-like 
petals. The flowers are extremely large and fluffy, and are borne on heavy non-lateral, 
basal-branched stems. It is an early bloomer and remains in flower over a long period. 
Cosmos “Sensation Mixed” ( Award of Merit). Pkt. 50c. 
An early giant flowered variety 4 to 6 feet tall. The flowers are pink and white, showing 
two shades of pink (no red available as yet) and are 4 to 6 inches across. For best 
show, leave plants 3 to 4 feet apart, and dis-bud for exceptional flowers on long cutting 
stems. 
♦ 
Marigold “Dixie Sunshine” ( Award of Merit). Pkt. 25c. 
This is an entirely new Chrysanthemum-flowered type of Marigold. It comes 100% fully 
double without the familiar Marigold odor. The brilliant golden yellow flower is actually 
a head of tiny five-petalled flowers. Tall bushy growth, rich green foliage, supporting 
masses of bright flowers on fine stems for cutting. Flowering later than Guinea Gold, 
it should be started quite early. 
Nasturtium—Dwarf “Qolden Globe” ( Award of Merit). Pkt. 15c; l A oz. 35c. 
Identical in color with the popular Golden Gleam. Uniformly dwarf and compact. Very 
free-flowering, and the well formed double flowers of deep golden yellow are delicately 
sweet scented. We predict a future for this introduction, the first of its type. 
Papaver Nudicaule Amurense (Special Mention). Pkt. 35c. 
This New Yellow Iceland Poppy is the largest flowered and longest stemmed yellow 
variety in existence. The very long flower stems are crowned with delicate bright yel¬ 
low flowers, excellent for cutting. 
Petunia “Flaming Velvet” (Gold Medal Winner). Pkt. 50c. 
A Gold Medal was awarded to this rich and brilliant, velvety blood-red or crimson flow¬ 
ered, hybrida variety. Outstanding for color, type and uniformity. 
Petunia—Grandif lor a Single Fringed

pact, half-dwarf, and free flowering. 
Petunia—Miniature “Rose Gem” (Award of Merit). Pkt. 50c. 
A charming addition to the Miniature group of Petunias. The plant is neat and com¬ 
pact, 6 to 8 inches high, and smothered with rich rose colored blooms about 2 inches * 
in diameter. 
Petunia “Rose King Improved” (Special Mention). Pkt. 25c. 
Free flowering with large flowers usually 3 inches in diameter, of a bright rose pink 
with a lovely golden throat. The plants grow to a height of about 14 inches and have 
a nice erect branching habit. Excellent cut flower as well as an ideal bedding Petunia.
