Flower Seed t^ovelties for 1936 
Scabiosa Fischeri hp 
A fine new border plant from Manchuria, hardy and truly perennial, 
growing about 20 inches high, with handsome divided leaves and flower¬ 
ing well into the autumn. The flowers are about 2 l /2 inches in diameter, 
borne on long, stiff stems, and are of a rich deep violet-blue shade, unlike 
that of any other Scabious. This handsome plant will make an excellent 
addition to the herbaceous border, and furnish first-rate material for 
cutting. Award of Merit, R. H. S., 1935. Pkt. 35 cts.; 3 pkts. $1. 
Viola, Normandie hhp 
A remarkably handsome variety of the Gracilis type, bearing large 
self-colored flowers of a rich burgundy-red-purple. Some flowers pro¬ 
duced have been practically double in form, and we are sure this attrac¬ 
tive variety will prove very popular. Pkt. 35 cts.; 3 pkts. $1. 
Scabiosa Fischeri 
Zinnia, Scabious-Flowered Mixture ha 
There is nothing better for use in artistic flower arrangement. The 
blooms, somewhat less than medium size, resemble the annual scabiosa 
from which they get their name. The plants are free flowering, 2 x /i feet 
high, and provide a wealth of bloom throughout the summer and early fall. 
The mixture is particularly rich in shades of crimson, scarlet, orange, yel¬ 
low', and pink. Pkt. 50 cts.; fioz. SI.50. 
Two Outstanding Vegetable Novelties 
PEA, PARAMOUNT SUGAR. An entirely new type of Sugar Pea, having 
long, cylindrical, and elegantly curved pods with thick, fleshy walls. 
It is no extravagance to say that Paramount strikes a new note in good 
housekeeping, inasmuch as one uses both peas and pods. No waste! No 
difficulty as to disposal of a large bulk of useless pea shells. Both Peas and 
shells of Paramount are eaten and are equally delicious. Height 5 feet. 
Pkt. 60 cts.; 4 pkts. $2. 
TOMATO, HUNDREDFOLD. This new strain is the result of careful 
reselecting for several years and may be described as a short-jointed type 
of Market King, containing all the good points of that variety. Is a most 
abundant cropper, largely owing to the fact that it is exceptionally short- 
jointed, so that w r here most varieties produce six trusses of fruit, Hundred¬ 
fold will develop eight trusses on the same height of plant. The fruits 
are medium in size, uniform and perfect globular shape. Rich bright red, 
of excellent flavor, and first class in every respect. Pkt. 30 cts.; 4 pkts. $1.
