it will be welcomed by the better plant fanciers. All who have seen 
it are greatly impressed by its unusual green coloring and many would 
derive pleasure from growing it. We have seed available of the green 
Puya Alpestris, and of the blue form, Puya Alpestrls Coerulea. 
(Note: May we call your attention to the fact that this is not a 
Yucca. The common name Green Irish Yucca is applied to it since the 
flower spikes somewhat resemble the well known Yucca.) 
I know you will be interested in the new Morning Glory Scarlett O’Hara. 
This is really an Ipomea, a true annual which does not reseed or be¬ 
come a pest. It flowers readily from seed in about 2. months, produc¬ 
ing quantities of brilliant crimson flowers which remain open through¬ 
out the entire day. This is a remarkable characteristic, and one 
which I know will add greatly to Scarlett O’Hara’s popularity. As seed 
supplies are limited, you will be wise to place your order at once. 
See page 14. 
On the subject of Ipomeas, I should like to say just a few words about 
Ipomea Clarke’s Earliest Heavenly Blue Morning Glory. While in the 
warmer climates the flowers of this variety ordinarily close by noon or 
by early afternoon, in such cool sections as Lompoc they remain open 
during the entire day. When the flowers close they do not open again 
the next day, but have finished their blooming, and a fresh supply 
takes their place the next morning. See page 40 for fuller descrip¬ 
tion of Clarke’s Earliest Heavenly Blue Morning Glory. 
On page 16, you will find listed Marigold California Double Golden 
Dawn and Moonbeam. These two Marigolds, although we do not illustrate 
them with a picture, should not be overlooked. They very closely re¬ 
semble the Guinea Gold or Carnation Flowered type, that is, the flow¬ 
ers are medium-sized and of loose formation, and the plants are ex¬ 
tremely free blooming. These two varieties are very early flowering, 
and produce a mass of color which lasts for several weeks. Visitors to 
our ranches were very much impressed, both with Golden Dawn and Moon¬ 
beam and I know you will be well repaid if you list them in your 1938 
catalog. 
Petunia enthusiasts have a very grand treat in store for them when they 
grow some of our new Giants of California Supreme Florist Strain. 
Visiting seedsmen who have inspected our planting of this variety have 
been extravagant in their praise of this fine new florist strain. The 
flowers are five to six inches in diameter, with broad shallow throats 
in a color range covering the vibrant rose and pink shades. See page 8 
for illustration and full description of this variety. 
Your florist customers will be particularly interested in our new flor¬ 
ist strain of our well known Calendula Campfire, or as the florists 
know it better. Sensation. It is described and illustrated on page 24. 
Two new Cosmos Sensation varieties. Pinkie, rose pink and Purity, pure 
white, are of equal Interest to cut flower growers and amateurs. Our 
new Wilt Resistant Light Blue Giants of California Aster is also of
