FIRST ALL YELLOW PETUNIA 
1091. DAINTY LADY PETUNIA. 
_ Last year we offered for the first time 
~ this new color in Petunias. The sulphur 
yellow flowers delicately fringed, are 
produced on neat compact plants. It is 
excellent for bedding or window boxes. 
-, Ten years were required to produce this 
-- / Petunia and each year the strain is com- 
i ing a brighter yellow. Last year some 
j of our customers reported poor success 
/ with this variety. While Dainty Lady, 
I i:i our trials was quite satisfactory, it 
/ did produce about 5 per cent blooms of 
/ a purple color. The plants of this color 
were, very' hardy and robust. To intro¬ 
duce this Petunia, we made a price of 
10c for fifty seeds as we wanted as 
many of our customers as possible, to 
try it. In most instances where we re¬ 
ceived complaints, the customer re¬ 
ceived a stand of only one or two plants. 
The purple being the hardiest, evidently 
survived poor growing conditions. The 
seed of Dainty Lady is very tender and 
care must be taken' to follow carefully 
instructions given on the packet. It is our opinion that a 
larger packet of seed will offset the difficulty experienced 
last season and we are increasing the size of our packets 
to 500 seeds. With larger quantities of seed, better stands 
will be obtained. Pkt., 30c; 2 pkts., 50c; Vi oz., $42.00; V 2 
oz., $81.00; oz., $160.00.

H. A. Another new variety of the 
recently-introduced Nana Compacta 
or ruffled dwarf Petunia. The plant 
is about nine inches high and forms 
a perfect ball literally smothered 
with beautiful frilled blooms about 
three inches in diameter. A remark¬ 
able feature of this variety is its 
unique color, which resembles a 
Martha Washington pelargonium. The 
frilled flower is a beautiful blush 
pink and the center portion is 
strongly veined a rich wine red 
deepening in the throat to a dark

A NEW COLOR SHADE 
OF SALPIGLOSSiS 
1146. PRIMROSE. (Usually 
called Painted Tongue.) Salpiglossis 
was judged the most popular flower 
in the Horticulture Garden in the 
Century of Progress in 1934 at Chi¬ 
cago. An old-fashioned flower and 
one of the best for cutting. We 
think Primrose is one of the finest 
varieties. The blooms are large and 
bell shaped with a throat of true 
orange shading to golden yellow on 
the flare part of the bloom. Pkt., 
5c; Vi oz., 30c; V 2 oz., 55c; oz.,

A FLAMING RED PETUNIA 
THAT HOLDS COLOR IN 
HOT WEATHER 
1092. GENERAL DODDS. The 
finest flaming red Petunia of the 
Hybrida or bedding type. Unlike 
other red Petunias, this strain will 
holds its brilliant color through the 
hottest weather. Our stock is the fin¬ 
est strain that we have ever seen, 
coming 100% perfect in color in 
trials this year. It is our opinion 
that this variety will displace Flam¬ 
ing Velvet, last season’s Gold Medal 
winner. We were very disappointed 
with Flaming Velvet because of the 
variation in color, and we are not 
listing it this year. We advise all 
our customers to use this variety in 
its place. Pkt., 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; Vi
