Mr. Richard Diener, Oxnard, Calif. 
Dear Mr. Diener: I want to tell you just how much plea¬ 
sure I have gotten out of the Pansies that came from your 
Jumbo seeds. This fall they are bigger and better than they 
have ever been and my friends have asked where I got 
the seeds. Your seeds are better than any I have purchased 
elsewhere. 
Sincerely, 
MRS. P. M. COOMBS.

NEW CYNOGLOSSUM AMABILIS, 
IMPROVED 
"Chinese Forget-me-not" 
This new Cynoglossum resembles Myosotis Alpes- 
tris so closely that an expert cannot tell them apart, 
and it can be brought into flower any time during 
the year. It will commence to flower seven to eight 
weeks after sowing and brings a great amount of 
cut material and should be very valuable for raising 
on benches in greenhouses during the winter. Color 
and growth are perfect in every detail.
