The ALL AMERICA VARIETIES for 1937 
New Collarette Marigold Crown 
Of Gold 
A new kind of Marigold with a Chry-

ting. Pkt. 25c.

overlaying petal with a meticulous precision

flowers are large, borne on long stems, and 
make beautiful bouquets. 30 inches. Very 
free flowering. Pkt., 15c; oz., 25c; *4

Poppy Nudicaule— 
Amurense Yellow 
This new, very large-flowered 
bright buttercup yellow Iceland 
Poppy is an excellent running 
mate to The Emperor and The 
Empress, listed on page 26 of 
this book, although it differs 
somewhat from other Nudicaule 
types in that the leaves are 
glaucous, heavily covered with 
short hairs. The stems are un¬ 
usually long and wiry, 24 inches 
or longer, and the flowers will 
keep as long as 10 days when 
cut. It blooms slightly later 
than the Nudicaule varieties, is 
much more heat and drought 
resistant than any other Poppy, 
and comes 100 per cent true to 
color. The flowers are freely 
produced, making it a very 
showy subject in the garden as 
well as a profitable variety for 
the cut flower trade. Pkt. 25c. 
Cornflower—Jubilee 
Gem 
Jubilee Gem is a dwarf var¬ 
iety of Cornflower making a 
compact plant literally covered 
with flowers. It has foliage dis¬ 
tinct from all other Corn¬ 
flowers, forming a tufted mass 
of bright green, contrasting 
well with the dark but vivid 
double blue flowers. The plant 
grows about 12 inches high. As 
an edging plant, a border plant, 
or for ground work in formal 
beds, it will be found admir¬ 
able; it is a fine cut flower. 
Pkt. 25c. 
Poppy Nudicaule Amurense Yellow 
Zinnia Fantasy Star Dust 
Verbena Hybrida— 
Grandiflora Crimson 
Glow 
In all the rather long list of 
Hybrida Grandiflora Verbena 
varieties there has been none in 
a crimson shade until this pres¬ 
ent introduction, Crimson Glow, 
which now provides this very 
necessary shade to round out 
the color range. The flowers 
are pure, self-colored, glowing 
crimson, wholly without even a 
small light eye. The individual 
florets are of good size, al¬ 
though as a characteristic of 
the reds in Verbena, they are 
not as large as some other 
colors, such as pink and laven¬ 
der. The flower heads are free¬ 
ly produced on plants which are 
neat and semi-compact in habit. 
Pkt. 25c. 
Zinnia Fantasy—Star 
Dust 
Fantasy is one of those types 
which you either definitely do 
or do not like. To those who 
definitely do like this informal 
Zinnia, Star Dust will be wel¬ 
comed with enthusiasm. It has 
the same shaggy-petaled, me¬ 
dium-sized flower as the mix¬ 
ture—a delicate, graceful 
bloom. The color is a rich deep 
golden yellow, one of the vi¬ 
brant shades closely associated 
with Zinnias, while the very 
free flowering, 2V2 to 3 foot 
plants are early blooming, 
coming into flower about 45 to 
50 days from the time of plant¬ 
ing. Pkt. 25c.
