vantage on trellises, walls, fences, etc. 
Nemophila, Insignis Blue 6 inches 
A hardy annual known also as “Baby 
Blue Eyes.” A native wild flower of Cali¬ 
fornia domesticated to be of excellent use 
as a border plant or for bedding. Plant is 
of spreading habit with bright green, 
hairy leaves, and covered with saucer¬ 
shaped blue flowers about 1 inch across. 
Should be planted in spring, in the loca¬ 
tion where the plants are to grow. 
Nigella (Love in the Mist or Devil in 
the Bush) 18 inches 
This peculiar, hardy annual gets its name 
from its odd blue blossom which is partly 
concealed in the dense feathery foliage. 
The plant grows in oval-bush form, and 
requires very little care in any garden. 
The seed pods are as curious looking as the 
blooms. 
Old Fashioned Garden 
This is a mixture of many varieties of 
annual flowers including the sorts so popu¬ 
lar in the old gardens of years ago. Beds 
or borders seeded to this mixture are al¬ 
ways a source of interest and many sur¬ 
prises. Includes both tall and dwarf varie¬ 
ties. 
Pinks or Dianthus 
Phlox Drummondii 
Painted Tongue—Salpiglossis 'l/i ft. 
Many have called it the orchid of hardy 
annual flowers. It has individuality and 
colorings found in no other variety. The 
blooms are funnel-shaped, something like a 
petunia, only larger, and are borne on long 
stems. Several blooms are sometimes on 
one stem. The range of colors includes blue, 
brown, red, purple, rose and violet, and 
nearly every flower is veined with a glint 
of gold. The color veining in all the blooms 
is marvelous. Of easy culture, blooms dur¬ 
ing June, July, August. 
PANSY 
This hardy annual is a favorite every¬ 
where. The bright, smiling faces of pansies 
give cheer all through the late Spring, 
Summer and Fall. A moist, sunny location 
with rich, loamy soil is required for best 
results. Cool weather produces larger 
blooms. Some specialists claim the plants 
must be transplanted twice to get large 
flowers—once from a seed box to a bed and 
then to an open garden. 
Fine—All Colors Mixed 
A mixture of low price, and very satis¬ 
factory quality for bedding purposes. 
Giant Fancy—All Colors Mixed 
A mixture of large flowering sorts. 
Giant Trimardeau—Mixed 
This mixture has a complete color range 
but the more popular shades are the dark 
ones. Flowers well rounded and not quite 
so large as some of the other varieties. 
This is an excellent mixture for those who 
do not require the extra large blooms.
