Morning Glories 
(Ipomoea) 
(hA-C). 12 feet. The luxurious rapid growth of this class 
of climbers recommends them for use as screens over porches 
and arbors. Their foliage is dense, of varying shades of green, 
and the leaves of certain sorts are of great size. The flowers 
resemble those of the Morning Glory, but are usually much 
larger, and in a broad range of delicate colorings. To hasten 
the germination, soak the seed for several hours before plant¬ 
ing. 
BONA NOX (Evening Glory). A stout, twining variety with 
broad, smoolh leaves and delightful violet-hued flowers 
that remain open during the evening. Pkt., 10c. 
GRANDIFLORA ALBA (Moonflower). A vine that surpasses 
all others of its class in size and beauty of flowers. These 
are extremely large, pure white, and sweet scented. The 
flowers open each evening, to bloom until morning. Pkt., 
10c. 
HEAVENLY BLUE (Early Flowering Sky-Blue). This remark¬ 
able vine grows rapidly and supplies a quantity of huge, 
dark green, glossy leaves. The blossoms are clear sky-blue 
with cream colored throats. Pkt., 10c. 
IMPERIALS LARGE FLOWERED MIXED (Japanese Morning 
Glory). One of the handsomest of all Morning Glories. The 
plant grows very quickly and supplies handsome foliage 
which is only surpassed by the beauty of the flowers. These 
attain a large size and appear in a wide range of radiant 
colors and with odd markings. Pkt., 10c. 
SETOSA (Brazilian Morning Glory). Clusters of pretty blue or 
purple flowers appear on this large growing vine. Each 
blossom bears a pink star in its center. Pkt., 10c. 
Nasturtium - Tropaeolum 
(hhA). When some visitor, returning from Peru, introduced 
Nasturtiums to gardeners he conferred a great blessing, for 
today it is one of our foremost flowering plants. It starts to 
bloom at an early stage, and for length of blossoming period 
it has no equal providing the flowers are picked before seed 
is formed. The odd-shaped flowers with their open throats 
and trailing spurs are well liked for cutting. The circular 
leaves should be used with the blossoms in bouquets. With 
the exception of blue, the color range is complete. 
TALL VARIETIES (Trailing). Five feet. These climbing or 
running sorts are chiefly of the "Lobbianum" class which 
produces flowers of better form and larger than the com¬ 
mon tall or "Majus" varieties. They are admirably adapted 
to covering a fence or trellis or to droop over a retaining 
wall. Trailing Mixed. Pkt., 5e. Tall Mixed. Pkt., 5c. 
DWARF VARIETIES. Twelve inch. These low-growing bushy 
kinds are often called "Tom Thumb." They form sym¬ 
metrical plants of uniform stature well suited for edgings 
or borders. Mixed. Pkt., 5c. 
Golden Gleam Nasturtiums 
GOLDEN GLEAM. Three 
feet. This was the 
first double or semi¬ 
double Nasturtium to 
come true from seed. 
The fragrant golden 
yellow blossoms, car¬ 
ried on long stems, 
are attractive as cut 
flowers, and the some¬ 
what trailing plants are 
ornamental in any gar¬ 
den. You will be aston¬ 
ished at the wealth of 
blossoms the plants 
produce. Several thou¬ 
sand from one packet 
of seed have been re¬ 
ported by some of our 
customers. Pkt., 10c. 
SCARLET GLEAM. Three 
feet. This new flower is 
the sister of Golden 
Gleam. Its semi-double 
blossoms are similar in 
■ size and shape to the 
popular golden Nastur¬ 
tium. Its color is bril¬ 
liant scarlet. Pkt., 10c. 
GLEAM HYBRIDS. Three 
feet. Hues of salmon, 
rose, yellow, primrose, 
and red are some of the colors of these new semi-double 
nasturtiums. They are bright, free blooming, and very 
pretty. Pkt., 10c. 
Nicotiana 
(hhA). 2 feet. You will have rare perfume in the garden 
both morning and evening as well as fine decoration in the 
border if you plant this airy member of the Tobacco family. 
The graceful stems, slightly branching, rise above the leaves 
of vivid green and bear clusters of gay blossoms. The flowers 
are like long horns with five flaring lobes. 
AFFINIS HYBRIDS. A variety of colors including white, laven¬ 
der, purple, rose and red. Pkt., 10c. 
Nigella 
LOVE-IN-A-MIST. (hA). Eighteen inch. Soft feathery foliage 
which partly conceals the blossoms has surrounded this 
plant with a bit of mystery. The petals form a rosette with 
toothed edges, in the center of which is a dome-shaped 
pistil with stamens crooked fantastically above it and a 
wreath of mossy green fibers around it. The plant will grow 
from seed sown in the open ground. 
DAMASCENA (Miss Jekyll). A lovely variety with cornflower- 
blue, coquettish flowers on long stems. Pkt., 10c.

mauve-colored flowers resembling those of single Stocks.

Pinks - Dianthus 
The time-honored garden pinks with their single or double 
carnation-like flowers make excellent border plants for mod¬ 
ern gardens. Gay blossoms on strong stems come in a variety 
of rich colors, and their stripes and markings make them 
especially attractive. They are of easy culture and quite 
suitable for cutting.
