NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES FOR 1936 
AND PRECEDING YEARS 
ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon) 
California Giant Mixture—Rust Proof (Bodger) 
This is the strain of Rust Proof Antirrhinums you have been 
waiting for. Even and compact in habit, of the popular 
majestic type, the plants are from 20 to 24 inches in height, 
and bear long spikes of close spaced, extra large florets. It 
comprises a fine, full color range of popular colors including 
exquisite shades of pink, rose apricot, bronze, orange, light 
and deep yellow, scarlet, crimson and white. While not yet 
100% resistant, the percentage is well above 75%. We con¬ 
sider this strain an excellent all around type, equally fine for 
border, cutting and florist use. Since it has been inspected and 
approved by most critical authorities, we offer this Rust Proof 
California Giant Mixture with our full confidence. Pkt. 25c. 
ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon) 
Majus Grandiflorum Pinkie—Rust Proof (Bodger) 
(Grower’s Description) 
Pinkie, our first Rust Proof Antirrhinum introduction, is an 
excellent florist’s forcing variety. As it is a very early flower¬ 
ing strain, it is especially fine for greenhouse forcing, as well 
as for general garden use. It is of the popular Majus Grandi¬ 
florum type, tall and robust growing, producing numerous fine 
cutting spikes of large, well spaced florets of a delightful 
shade of pure clear rose. The color is very similar to Antirr¬ 
hinum Neirose. The strain comes about 90% resistant, and 
carries our recommendation. Pkt. 25c. 
CALENDULA APRICOT QUEEN 
CALENDULA 
Orange Shaggy—Gold Medal 1935 All America 
Selections (Grower’s Description) 
Calendulas in recent years have enjoyed a decided revival 
of interest. Many new shades have been introduced in 
the standard double form, and several new and interesting 
(lower types have been developed. One of the most interest¬ 
ing, and certainly the most distinct of these is the new 
laciniated type, Orange Shaggy. Deep orange shading 
lighter at the center, exceedingly graceful and informal 
in appearance, it is a striking contrast to the formal 
Calendulas in general use. The plants are free flowering, 
neat and compact, bearing long stems which make the 
fringy petaled flowers equally useful in the garden or 
for cutting. Pkt. 15c. 
CALENDULA 
Frilled Beauty (Grower’s Description) 
In line with the active program for improvement and 
innovations in the Calendula group, Frilled Beauty comes 
as one of the very finest new varieties. Although similar 
in appearance to Orange Shaggy, it is actually quite dis¬ 
tinct from it. The flowers are large and full, with good 
stiff petals which are semi-rounded in appearance, giving 
good body to the flower. Stems are long and fine for 
cutting, while the plant makes a strong heavy growth. 
The color is a deep orange. You will be entirely satisfied 
with Frilled Beauty. Pkt. 15c. 
Very much in the limelight at the present time, the 
valuable qualities of the Calendula are being exploited 
both for the market and in private gardens. Various 
breaks in color and form of flower have occurred, and 
what we here offer is a flat petalled variety of a bright 
apricot shade, deepening slightly towards the center. 
It is excellent for all the purposes to which a Calen¬ 
dula can be put. Pkt. 15c. 
CALENDULA JEWEL 
A real jewel in the Calendula group, the new 
variety Jewel is one of the finest introduced in the 
past few years. The flowers are deep orange in color, 
in a rounded shape, with good form and good depth of 
petal. The plants are semi-dwarf and free flowering, 
equally desirable for both bedding and cut flower 
use. Pkt. 10c.
