Haines Blue Bird Flower 
Always in Bloom—Beautiful Color—Easy to Grow 
(CENTAUREA) —The finest, of any of the Blue Flowers which are 
so beautiful in the flower garden. This new flower is easily 
grown from seed, and comes into bloom quickly, and will con¬ 
tinue to blossom all summer if the flowers are kept picked. This 
is an annual but will come up the following spring from self 
sown seed. Perfectly double and of a dark blue color, and I 
cannot recommend it too highly. There are so few flowers that 
are wonderfully blue, that my new Blue Bird Flower, will fill a 
place in many gardens which have always needed this color. 
Those of my customers who grew this flower last summer were 
delighted with it. Can be used as a boutonniere, and being a 
full double flower, it takes very few to make a nice bouquet. 
Grows about 3 feet high. Pkt. 10c; Vs oz. 30c; V 2 oz * 90 c -

time seed is planted, and continue in blossom 
all summer and fall. Flowers are of good 
mostly bright yellow with a crimson 
brown spotted center. Grows about
