FLOWER SEEDS FOR FLORISTS 
OF EXTRA VALUE 
NEW MARIGOLD, Golden Eagle 
Very similar in habit, flower size and type to the well known 
Guinea Gold. The color, however, is a rich golden yellow, mid¬ 
way between Yellow Supreme and Guinea Gold. If you have 
grown these two, the value of this new color, especially for 
outdoor cutting, can be visualized 
and appreciated. 
Tr. pkt., 50c; 'A oz., $1.00; I oz., 
$3.50. 
MARIGOLD, Dwarf French 
Monarch Mixed 
While the Monarch strain is not 
quite so early flowering as the regu¬ 
lar dwarf French, the flowers are 
better rounded and decidedly more 
attractive. This is a choice strain for 
combination boxes. We suggest sow¬ 
ing early January. 
Tr. pkt., 20c; 1 oz., 75c. 
MARIGOLD, Fire Cross 
A dwarf French single that we 
prefer to Legion of Honor because of 
more compact habit, earlier and 
freer flowering. Light orange with 
brown center. 
Tr. pkt., 20c; 1 oz., 60c. 
PETUNIA, Celestial Rose 
Introduced by us to the American trade three years ago, it 
remains the choicest deep rose dwarf bedding variety. Color 
deeper than Rose of Heaven, that it decidedly improves. 
Tr. pkt., 35c; Vs oz., 75e; '/ 4 oz., $1.25; I oz., $4.00; 
2 ozs., $7.00. 
PETUNIA, Rose King 
Though belonging to the ordinary 
Hybrida class, this is an unusually 
attractive shade of deep rose-pink 
with gold throat. Though not com¬ 
pact, its vigorous growth and rich 
color gives it value for growing as 
young stock in flats and for bedding. 
Tr. pkt., 25c; V 4 oz., 75 c; I oz., 
$2.50. 
PRIMULA Malacoides, Bril¬ 
liancy 
Deep crimson or rose-red, the 
darkest shade in this class. It adds 
an attractive variation to Baby 
Primulas. 
Tr. pkt., $1.00; 6 pkts., $5.00. 
Sedum Reflexum, "Chameleon" 
MATRICARIA, Ball's Double White 
(Feverfew). For cutting we find this clearly improves the 
regular kind propagated through cuttings. Flowers are smaller, 
more solidly double, and harder. Comes 95% true to type from 
seed we offer. Seed crop frequently a failure—for this reason we 
suggest working up a stock through cuttings. 
Offered only in trade packets at 35c each. 
MYOSOTIS, Ball's Early 
Extra early flowering compared with Blue Bird that is gen¬ 
erally used for cutting. In deep soil of a cool house this makes 
good stems. Its rich dark blue color and early flowering make 
it the preferred cut flower variety. Also valuable 
for outdoors, but winter protection is necessary in 
our climate. 
Tr. pkt., 35c; 'A oz., 75e. 
PETUNIA, Ball's Dwarf Giant No. 1 
This is the finest available Superbissima Giant 
strain. True dwarf Giants to the extent of 75% 
to 80%. A valuable class for flowering in 3- and 
4-inch pots. 
V 2 Tr. pkt., 75c; Tr. pkt., $1.25; 1/64 oz., 
$2.25; 1/32 oz., $4.00; 1/16 oz., $7.00. 
PETUNIA, Ball's Single Fringed No. 1 
A strain of fringed Grandifloras, largely attrac¬ 
tive light rose-pink shades. This is an extra strong 
growing and extra free flowering strain. Because 
of this it is especially valuable in sections where 
summers are hot and dry. 
Tr. pkt., 50c; 1/32 oz., $1.00; 1/16 oz., $1.75; 
Vs oz., $2.75; 'A oz„ $5.00. 
PETUNIA, Black Prince 
This is a rich velvety red color classed as a 
Balcony, but its vigorous growth and color makes 
it strikingly fine for bedding. Comes practically 
100% true to color and has done so since its intro¬ 
duction three years ago. The variety Flaming Vel¬ 
vet sent out last year is identical to Black Prince 
except that it does not come as true to color. 
Tr. pkt., 35e; 1/16 oz., 60c; Va oz., $1.00. 
SALVIA Splendens, Firebrand 
We find our European strain of this the most desirable we 
have ever tested. About 6 inches more dwarf than our good 
strain of America, very uniform in height and extra early 
flowering. 
Tr. pkt., 50c; 'A oz., 85 c; 1 oz., $3.00; 4 ozs., $9.00. 
SCHIZANTHUS, Giant Blotched 
Our strain of this comes to us from the originator, Blackmore 
and Langdon, of Eng'and. A true Giant type with a large dark 
blotch in the center of each flower. We also find it 2 to 3 weeks 
earlier flowering than other strains. 
Tr. pkt., 50c; 1/16 oz., $1.00. 
SEDUM Reflexum, "Chameleon" 
The most distinctive new Sedum, we noted in 
Europe the past season. Growth starts green, 
gradually taking on some salmon or apricot shad¬ 
ing as the season advances. Reproduces about 
50% true to this coloring from seed. Further 
propagation is through divisions from the true 
seedlings. Bright canary-yellow flowers in July 
and August to a height of 8 to 10 inches. A valu¬ 
able addition to rock garden plants. 
Tr. pkts., only 50c. 
STOCK, Non-Branching Ball's Pink 
An entirely new color in the Non-Branching 
class. It can best be described as identical to Bis¬ 
marck Rose. Strictly non-branching with doubles 
around 65%. Stock limited. 
Tr. pkts., only $1.00. 
STOCK, Santa Maria 
This extra strong growing white belongs to a 
new class known as Giants of California. Santo 
Maria is outstanding for long-stemmed growth, 
purity of color, and good percentage of doubles. 
Tr. pkt., 35c; 'A oz., $1.00; 1 oz., $3.00. 
VERBENA, Venosa 
We are sure no retail grower should miss this 
heliotrope-blue Verbena because of its rich effect 
for bedding and its use for cutting. 
Tr. pkt., 25c; 'A oz., 40c; 1 oz., $1.25. 
Stock, Ball's Pink
