ANNUAL FLOWER NOVELTIES 
CORNFLOWER, JUBILEE GEM 
Award of Merit, All-America Selections, 1937 
Jubilee Gem is a dwarf variety of Cornflower making a compact plant literally 
covered with flowers. The plant is about 12 inches in height. Easy to grow, it is 
"everyone's” flower and is adaptable for almost any purpose to which a plant 
may be put. As an edging plant, a border plant, or for ground work in formal 
beds of Roses, etc., it will be found admirable; it is a fine cut flower and, above 
all, it may be sown outside in the autumn for spring flowering, or in the spring 
for summer flowering. Pkt. 25c. 
MARIGOLD, DWARF ROYAL SCOT, ALLDOUBLE

dwarf and double. Its growth is dwarf and bushy, every plant of a uniform shape 
and height of about 10 to 12 in. Color is a rich mahogany and gold in uniform 
stripes. It is a splendid plant for borders and blooms for a long period from mid¬ 
summer until frost. Pkt. 25c.

MARIGOLD DIXIE SUNSHINE 
Award of Merit, All-America Selections, 1936 
From the Land of Dixie to the gardens of the world comes this most charming 
Marigold. The large ball-shaped flowers are ingeniously composed of dozens of 
tiny five-petaled florets, gracefully interlocking, daintily fringed in effect. Bril¬ 
liant golden yellow, 100% fully double, and but faintly scented. Whether in the 
garden, on tall, bushy plants literally smothered with blooms, or when arranged 
for home decoration, the strong stemmed flowers are a constant joy until frost.

LARKSPUR, GIANT IMPERIAL, WHITE KING 
Special Mention, All-America Selections, 1937 
White King is without any question the finest Giant Imperial Larkspur developed 
since Carmine King. The flowers are a pure, glistening white with rounded 
broad petals. The florets are extremely large and fully double, measuring as 
much as 2 inches across and are evenly and closely spaced on the stem. This gives 
a very heavy Hollyhock-like cutting spike from 24 to 30 inches long. The plants 
are tall, well over 5 feet. White King is very early blooming, coming into flower 
more than a week earlier than other Giant Imperial varieties. Pkt. 25c. 
LARKSPUR, GIANT IMPERIAL, CORAL KING 
In Coral King is a new color never before seen in Larkspurs—blush pink, with a 
strong suffusion of coral which deepens and gets richer as the flowers mature. 
The florets are very large and fully double, with rounded petals. There is a 
magnificent length of Hollyhock-like flowering spike, averaging from 24 to 30 
inches. The plants are from 5 to 5% feet tall under our conditions, and are of 
the true Giant Imperial type, branching from the base. Pkt. 25c. 
COSMOS, SENSATION, FINEST MIXED 
Award of Merit, All-Americia Selections, 1936 
For the short time it has been on the market Cosmos Sensation has earned for 
itself a remarkably permanent position in the garden world. The flowers are 
mammoth in size, 4 to 5 inches in diameter, with broad, heavy fluted petals 
carrted on very long strong stems. It is extremely early flowering, blooming in 
10 weeks from the time of seeding. The mixture contains white, and shades of 
rose and pink. Pkt. 15c. 
MARIGOLD, YELLOW SUPREME 
Gold Medal, All-America Selections, 1935 
Yellow Supreme has more than lived up to its reputation as a companion to the 
popular Guinea Gold. The color is a delightful light lemon yellow, and the flowers 
are of medium size, loosely ruffled or carnation flowered in formation. The plants 
are 2 to 2% feet tall, compact and pyramidal in habit and very free blooming. 
Yellow Supreme has proven itself very popular, both as a garden subject and 
for cutting. Pkt. 15c. 
MARIGOLD GIGANTEA SUNSET GIANTS 
(A New Bodger Marigold) 
Marigold Sunset Giants are the largest ever known in the Marigold group, aver¬ 
aging 5 to 7% inches. A plant of Sunset Giants is one of the showiest spots in 
any garden. Instead of the usual Marigold odor these flowers have a definitely 
sweet fragrance. The flowers are loosely formed, very full centered, with broad 
heavy petals gracefully overlapping to make a flower of great depth. Sunset 
Giants is a mixture ranging from deep orange through golden orange, deep 
golden yellow, light yellow, lemon yellow, and a delightful new shade of primrose.
