GAILLARDIAS 
W E consider the Gaillardia the most beautiful and 
desirable hardy plant in cultivation, and believe 
our strain to be the finest extant, and we offer 
these plants for less than they have ever been sold for, 
either in this country or Europe. The Gaillardia is, of 
course, simply invaluable as a cut flower, on account of 
its being so lasting when gathered and so brilliant and 
beautiful. The gay blossoms are obtainable in perpetual 
profusion from June to November, and the greater the 
drought and scarcity of other flowers the more the 
utility of the perennial Gaillardia is demonstrated. Some 
of the varieties of this improved strain measure fully 
five inches in diameter. 
Improved Giant Hybrids. Since we have always been most 
enthusiastic in recommending the older types of Gaillardia, we 
hardly know how to explain our appreciation of this new 
strain. Emphatically it is an improvement, no doubt what- 
ever about that. The flowers are larger and there are more 
of them, in the loveliest shades of orange, red and yellow. 
Like the older types they bloom perpetually from June to 
November and do not seem to mind drought and other 
adverse weather conditions, but continue to bloom when 
other plants curl up and quit. 3 for 75c; $2.50 per doz. 
Oculata. A new tall Gaillardia producing flower stems 2/2 
feet high crowned with the loveliest flowers colored bright 
golden yellow with deep rich maroon-red centers. 3 for 
90c; $3.00 per doz. 
The King. This new variety produces truly enormous flowers, the 
largest Gaillardia flowers in existence. These tremendous flow¬ 
ers, measuring around 4 inches in diameter, are two-colored- 
centers of brilliant sparkling red, with edges of yellow and 
orange. 3 for $1.00; $3.25 per doz.
