NEW ENGLAND TORO COMPANY 
“All-American” Flower Seed 
Novelties 
Each year growers from all over the world are invited 
to send samples of their flower seed novelties to an 
American committee which grows them in many sec¬ 
tions, and then votes as to the desirability of each as 
shown by the trials. This gives a true index of the value 
of each novelty for American gardens before dissemina¬ 
tion. Here we are glad to present the winners of such 
tests— Gold Medal Winners. You can depend upon 
each as being eminently worth¬ 
while for your garden. 
COSMOS, Orange Flare 
Having been voted the Grand 
Champion in 1934, this is one 
of the most enthusiastically ad¬ 
mired novelties. The bushy 
plants grow 2-3 feet tall, bloom¬ 
ing in only four months from 
seed. Its medium-sized, single 
flowers are a vivid orange, on 
long, strong stems well suited 
for cutting. Its foliage 
is light green, Marigold¬ 
like. We do not hesitate 
to recommend it for gen¬ 
eral planting and wher¬ 
ever a mass of color is 
wanted. It should be 
included in every seed 
order. You will be de¬ 
lighted with it. 
Pkt. 25c. 
MARIGOLD 
Yellow Supreme 
The lemon-yellow 
counterpart of the fa¬ 
mous Carnation flowered 
“Guinea Gold.” Those who have seen it 
growing are enthusiastic over this beau¬ 
tiful, profuse, quite early blooming an¬ 
nual. The plants are remarkably healthy, 
vigorous and free branching, with foliage 
practically free from any objectionable 
Marigold odor. Its large, fluffy blooms 
possess a mild, honey fragrance—just 
grand as a long-standing cut flower, cal¬ 
culated to give gardeners a real thrill. There is 'a 
happy surprise in store for all who choose to grow 
this novelty which won a Gold Medal Award in the 
tests. Pkt. 25c., 1/16 oz. 35c. 
GUINEA GOLD. The first Carnation-flowered Mari¬ 
gold and tremendously popular. Bright orange. 
Pkt. 25c., t§ oz. 50c. 
NASTURTIUM, Scarlet Gleam 
An intensely dazzling color in this new race of 
sweet-scented, half-dwarf Nasturtiums that are hold¬ 
ing such a commanding position in the esteem of the 
gardening public. The plants are bushy, with a few 
short runners, and are so set with semi-double blossoms 
as to appear ablaze. For cutting or garden decoration, 
Scarlet Gleam has but few 
equals. Won a coveted Gold 
Medal Award for its showing 
in 1934 trials. Pkt. 25c. 
NASTURTIUM 
Glorious Gleam Hybrids 
Closely resembling the pop¬ 
ular Golden Gleam in habit 
of growth, but the colors range 
through glorious shades of 
salmon, yellow, cerise, maroon, 
and crimson as well as many 
spotted varieties. Won an 
Award of Merit. Pkt. 25c. 
NASTURTIUM 
Golden Gleam 
The first of this 
new race of fragrant, 
semi-double Nastur¬ 
tiums that many feel 
will entirely replace 
all others. Golden 
Gleam has already 
proven its worth and 
established itself in 
the best American 
gardens. Can be 
forced in the green¬ 
house or conserva¬ 
tory. If you have not 
already become 
acquainted with it, 
you should plant 
Golden Gleam this 
year. 
Pkt. 15c., oz. 50c. 
Because of its earliness. Orange Flare Cos¬ 
mos may be grown successfully even in our 
Northernmost gardens 
DOUBLE SHIRLEY POPPIES 
SWEET BRIAR. Wild Rose Pink has long been a “best 
seller ’ in Single Shirley Poppies—and rightfully popular. 
It's a pleasure, therefore, to offer its counterpart in a 
full double type, Begoniaiike, and of an exquisite shade 
of deep rose pink. Pkt. 25c. 
CALENDULA, Orange Shaggy 
Here is a new “break” in Calendulas—the most grace¬ 
ful and unique yet seen. Row after rownff long, deeply 
fringed or laciniated petals overlap each other in a 
rather irregular fashion, to present blooms with the 
shaggy appearance of some Chrysanthemums. They 
have a beauty and grace quite in contrast to the formal 
appearance of that old favorite, Orange King. The deep 
orange color of the blooms shades to a slightly lighter 
hue in the center—a delightful two-toned effect. The 
plants grow about 18 inches tall. Orange Shaggy will 
please all lovers of yellow flowers for many happy 
blends and contrasts are possible with it. Won a Gold 
Medal Award, Pkt. 25c.
