Calendulas 
ORANGE SHAGGY. The florets are long and deeply fringed or 
laciniated in this new type of Pot Marigold. Row after row of 
these long, fringed petals overlap each other in a rather irregular 
fashion, and build up a bloom with the shaggy appearance of some 
chrysanthemums, graceful and beautiful. The color is a deep 
orange, shading to a slightly lighter orange in the center. Tradle

CAMPFIRE (SENSATION). This type has been thoroughly tested 
under glass and has been accepted as the best forcing Calendula for 
that use. Blooms are flat and are undoubtedly larger than those of 
any other type previously introduced. The color is brilliant orange, 
with a scarlet sheen and a full yellow center. V 4 OZ. 25 cts., oz.

CHRYSANTHA. This is one of the best Calendulas for florists’ use. 
The stems are remarkably long, and the flowers resemble the 
chrysanthemum, from which it derives its name. The florets are 
long, wide, and drooping, giving the large, double, buttercup- 
yellow flowers a globular outline. V 4 OZ. 15 cts., oz. 50 cts.,

Centaurea cyanus, Jubilee Gem 
One of the most outstanding Annual Novelties to be introduced 
this season. It is a dwarf variety of Cornflower, making a compact 
plant literally covered with flowers which are of a vivid dark blue 
color. The plant grows about i foot high, making it ideal for pots or 
border work. Trade Pkt. 50 cts., 3 pkts. $1.25. 
Cheiranthus Allioni, Golden Bedder 
Siberian Wallflower 
We believe this will prove to be one of the most popular perennials 
ever introduced, for it has all the attributes of the original Siberian 
Wallflower. The color is deep golden yellow and the individual 
flowers are larger than our strain of Allioni. Every leading florist 
should grow some of this variety. Trade Pkt. 30 cts., 3 pkts. 85 cts. 
Cosmos, Early Orange Flare 
One of the most outstanding novelties introduced this season. 
Blooms in four months from sowing. Recommended highly for cut- 
flowers, and also for early sowing to produce potted plants for retail 
store trade. The color is the same vivid orange of the ordinary 
Klondyke, but the attractive light green foliage is much less abundant, 
giving a plant which is a mass of color, with long, wiry stems, well 
adapted for cutting. Trade Pkt. 15 cts., Y 4 OZ. 50 cts., oz. $1.50.

Cineraria 
California Super Giants 
Cineraria hybrida grandiflora nana 
The plants are compact in habit, 15 to 18 inches high, vigorous 
and exceptionally free flowering. Its huge flowers measure from 4 to 
6 inches across, with single petals i to inches wide, and although 
not as abundant as in the ordinary Grandiflora strains, are borne 
profusely in immense rounded trusses above the very attractive, 
clean, bold dark green foliage. 
Most remarkable is the basal branching habit of the plant, revolu¬ 
tionary departure in Cineraria development. The stems all come from 
the base of the plant, bearing flowers in flat-topped trusses, which 
resemble an umbel, thus entirely eliminating the objectionable 
pyramidal shape of ordinary strains, and rendering them especially 
valuable for market work and for conservatory decoration. 
In range of color, the strain is unchallenged. From exquisite 
pastel salmons, azure-blue, and snowy white, to the deepest blood-red 
and violet-blues, whether solid self-colors or high-lighted with con¬ 
trasting central zones, the mass of color is magnificent. 
Blue Shades. Exquisite colors from sky-blue to ultramarine, some 
with white zones. 
Crimson and Carmine Shades. Rich colorings in the deep red hues. 
Salmon Shades. Delicate tints from light to deep salmon and pink. 
Superb Mixture. All of the above shades combined in an evenly 
balanced blend with many additional and equally beautiful colors. 
Each, Trade Pkt. (about 500 seeds) $1, 3 pkts. $2.50 
Cremer’s Prize Strain. Conceded by many experienced Cineraria 
growers to be the greatest improvement in this important green¬ 
house annual developed in recent years. The flowers are large and 
the color-range exceptionally fine. Florets in most of the plants 
obtained from this strain are wide, and they overlap to form at¬ 
tractive heads. Its foliage is handsome, with smaller leaves than 
those of the old type; the plants are exceptionally resistant to 
wilt. Trade Pkt. $1.50, 3 pkts. $4. 
Chrysanthemum, Shasta Daisy 
Giant Double White. This strain is remarkable for its resemblance 
to the asters, and, no doubt, will replace them where it is impossible 
to grow them because of disease. The flowers average 5 inches 
in diameter on long, wiry, straight stems. Seedlings flower five 
months after sowing. Trade Pkt. 50 cts., 3 pkts. $1.25. 
Super-Delphiniums 
S. & W. Co.’s Super Gold Medal Hybrids 
Specialists in America and Europe vie with one another in the 
improvement of this wonderful and, without a doubt, “the most 
popular hardy perennial.” The varieties of yesterday are mere 
caricatures compared to the strain we are offering. The plants are 
of strong and vigorous habit and the spikes frequently attain the 
height of 5 feet. 
Wave Crest Blue Shades. A mixture of light blue shades. 
Delft Blue Shades. A selection of medium blue shades. 
Salon Blue Shades. A mixture of dark blue shades.
