PENTSTEMON Cut-Flower Strain 
MINIATURE HYBRIDS MIXED 
Because of its long and continuous flowering habit the Pent- 
stemon has long been one of the most popular flowers in our 
gardens. 1 he New Miniature Hybrids are splendid for this 
purpose, lending themselves to bedding and border use, where 
their uniform growth and variety of colors make a wonderful dis¬ 
play. It is, however, in the way they retain their flowers after 
cutting that they are far superior to all former types, making their 
tall, graceful spikes closely set wtih brilliant, tubular flowers most 
useful and attractive for cut-flower decoration in the home. 
Per Packet 15c; Yt oz. $1.00.

J&UT ZINNIA Mammoth 
CROWN O' GOLD MIXED 
This, to us, is the most artistic of all the mammoth flowered 
^ufORNiA - Zinnias. The novel bicolor effect has delighted all who 
"QyFlF have seen it. Each flower is in fact two-toned, the base of 
each petal being marked with a heightened or deeper shade 
than the flower itself. This contrast lends greater richness and 
variety to the splendid range of colors in the strain. The flowers 
are large, double, and well formed, on good cutting stems generously 
produced on plants which reach a height of 2J4 to 3 feet. For a 
richer zinnia border plant Crown O’ Gold Zinnias. Per Pkt. 20c; 
Ys oz. 50c. 
DESERT GOLD 
Petals golden yellow, deeper at base. Packet 20c. 
GODETIA Cut-Flower Strain 
SUPERB SINGLE MIXED 
Nothing more dainty can be imagined than the satiny lustre 
wttirity t ^ iese new Godetia flowers. The delicate petals and bright 
W|F shades resemble those of the Azalea, yet in spite of their 
* apparent airy texture they are very resistant, holding up 
splendidly after cutting. Their popularity with commercial growers 
of cut flowers has been immediate, a short trial having convinced 
them that they are one of the most beautiful as well as one of the 
most practical cut flowers introduced in years. And they are even 
more useful in the garden, doing well in almost any soil or location 
and giving fine results in soils so poor as to be practically useless 
for any other type of flower. Be sure to include them in your gar¬ 
den, you will be more than pleased. 
Per Packet 15c; % oz. 50c.
