^A6ur NASTURTIUM Sweet Scented 
DOUBLE SCARLET GLEAM 
Those who have seen Scarlet Gleam, enthusiastically proclaim it even more 
dazzling in color than the showy Golden Gleam. The flowers are a fiery orange 
scarlet of extraordinary brilliancy. The individual blooms are of an immense 
size, almost three inches across, much larger than any Nasturtium ever known. 
The sweet fragrance is more pronounced, and the double flowers more uniformly 
well formed. The large, fiery scarlet flowers held well above the cool restful 
green leaves present an arresting contrast, while the ease with which the plant 
is grown under almost any condition insures a universal popularity. 
Price: Per Packet 10c; Large Packet 25c; Oz. 60c. 
J\6ur ZINNIA Fantasy 
MIXED 
Fantasy is the most fascinating new Zinnia type introduced to the flower 
world in many years. The very informal, shaggy appearing flowers are graceful 
and interesting in the extreme. The petals of the rounded blossoms are ray¬ 
like, curled and interwoven, giving a novel charm quite distinct from all other 
types of Zinnias. 
The colors are unusually bright and include shades of red, yellow, and orange. 
This new Zinnia is undoubtedly one of the most attractive novelties. 
Per Packet 20c; 3 Packets 50c. 
Nasturtium Scarlet Gleam 
J\€ur POPPY ICELAND 
SANTA MARIA INN HYBRIDS 
Visitors at the Santa Maria Inn in Santa Maria have been struck by the 
extraordinary size and beauty of the Iceland Poppies displayed there dur¬ 
ing the past two years. Mr. Frank McCoy, proprietor of the Inn, a 
horticulturist of note, is the originator of this truly remarkable strain. 
The flower stems are notably tall and wiry. The blossoms are more 
lasting and the plants carry on farther into the summer. 
The color range is the best we have seen in Iceland Poppies, including 
picotees, carmine, satin pink, orange, champagne, etc., and a truly gi¬ 
gantic pure white.
