ANNUAL PLATYCODON 
POPPIES 
Yellow Supreme 
• MARIGOLD YELLOW 
SUPREME 
Gold Medal Winner 1935 
All America Selections 
Heralded as a companion to the pop¬ 
ular Guinea Gold, Yellow Supreme does 
in many respects resemble it. It is very 
free flowering, compact and somewhat 
pyramidal in habit, two to two and a 
half feet tall, bearing loosely ruffled, car¬ 
nation flowered blossoms. The color is 
a creamy lemon yellow, and the flowers 
are somewhat larger than Guinea Gold. 
Pkt., 8c; oz., 20c. 
• GUINEA GOLD 
The golden orange flowers are not 
shaped like ordinary African Marigolds; 
they are more like Carnations, with their 
petals loosely placed and waved. 
Bushy, blossom covered plants are 
ideal for borders, and many florists have 
already pronounced Guinea Gold the 
best Marigold for cutting. Pkt., 7c; 
J4 oz., 15c. 
• AFRICAN ORANGE 
ALLDOUBLE 
• DWARF OR TOM THUMB 
These are dwarf, compact plants, and like all 
Tom Thumbs, succeed on light, well-drained soil, 
The Tom Thumb Nasturtiums are much freer 
bloomers than any of the other varieties and are 
excellent for border plaints. 
Tom Thumb Mixed—This mixture is com¬ 
posed of all of the best Tom Thumbs and is re¬ 
markable both for brilliancy of color and perfec¬ 
tion of individual flowers. The low price at 
which we are offering this seed brings it within 
the reach of everyone, and it should be planted 
liberally. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; 14 lb., 25c; lb., 75c.

fifty per cent double is considered good — sixty
