ANNUAL AND PERENNIAL FLOWER SEEDS 
LINARIA, Miniature Snapdragon 
This interesting species bears flowers which resemble 
miniature Snapdragons ending in single elongated spurs. It 
includes both trailing and erect growing varieties which are 
little known but worthy of greater attention. 
Fairy Bouquet. This is an erect sort with finely cut foliage 
and with blossoms clustered on upright spikes. The colors 
which are varied embrace many shades of crimson, orange, 
and blue. The plant is in flower within two months. 
LINUM, Crimson Flax 
Grandiflorum rubruin. An old favorite with large, rich crim¬ 
son blooms borne profusely on plants growing 18 to 24 inches 
tall. Though the flowers last only one day. new ones appear 
every morning. 
LOBELIA 
A dainty and continuous blooming annual of compact 
growth, remarkable for its profusion of beautiful blue flow¬ 
ers. Unexcelled for edging, ribbon beds, hanging baskets or 
window boxes. Height about 6 inches. 
Compaeta, Crystal Palace. Erect and very free blooming. 
Best dark blue for edging. Fine for pots. 
LUPINE, Sun Dials 
Thrive in almost any situation. Sow where they are to 
bloom in May, and as plants grow, thin out to 1 foot apart. 
The annual varieties bloom freely from June until Septem¬ 
ber, and the perennials make a fine addition to the hardy 
border. 
Hartwegii, Annual, Mixed. 2 feet high. All shades and 
colors. Gorgeous. 
Polyphyllus, Perennial, Mixed. 3 feet high. Long spikes of 
blossoms in Spring and early Summer. Hardy. 
LYCHNIS, Rose Campion 
Chalcedonica. Maltese or Jerusalem Cross, flaming scarlet, 
large ball-like flower heads. 
MARIGOLD 
Late in the season when many other growing things are 
past their prime, these plants supply an abundance of deco¬ 
rative blossoms. Their tones of orange and yellow blend 
well when the flowers are arranged loosely in bowls and 
vases. The bright green foliage is finely cut, and the stems 
are stout. Tall Marigolds give charm to the border, while 
the dwarfs are valuable for bedding and make ideal edging 
plants.

Yellow Supreme. See page 3. 
Mexican Dwarf Orange. Distinctly new and different in flower 
form. It comes from Mexico, the original home of all our 
garden Marigolds. The plants are semi-dwarf in habit, grow¬ 
ing 15 to 18 inches high, freely branched, and bearing quan¬ 
tities of large, unique semi-tubular petaled flowers of bright 
orange. 
AFRICAN TALL DOUBLE (Tagetes erecta). Very large 
globular flowers composed of compact tubular or quilled 
petals. The stems should be cut carefully to avoid the some¬ 
what disagreeable odor when bruised. 2 y 2 feet. 
Orange Prince. Rich, deep orange. 
Mixed. 
GUINEA GOLD (African). Carnation-like petals and un¬ 
usually brilliant golden color makes this flower outstanding 
among Marigolds. It lacks much of the pungent odor of 
other Marigolds. The plant blooms very freely, and prac¬ 
tically all of the flowers are double. 2 feet 
FRENCH DOUBLE DWARF. This Marigold is more florifer- 
ous than the African, but bears smaller flowers. As a rule, 
instead of being quilled the petals are flat and overlapping. 
They are often two-toned, which adds to their beauty. 
Double Mixed. 
FRENCH DWARF SINGLE. This variety is quite similar 
in habit and usefulness to the dwarf double sorts except that 
each blossom has a single row of petals of rich golden yellow, 
beautifully blotched at the center with a clean edged spot 
of velvety garnet. 
Mixed. 
Dwarf French, Double, Monarch Strain. Award of Merit, All- 
America Selections, 1934. An excellent variety for low bor¬ 
ders. A very compact type, with large double flowers, in a 
wide range of colors, in combination of orange, bronze, yellow 
and mahogany. Finest Mixed. 
MARIGOLD FRENCH DOUBLE HARMONY 
Dwarf French Double Harmony. Although it has never been 
entered in the All-America Trials, Harmony is in a class with 
gold medal winners, and would undoubtedly have been a win¬ 
ner had it ever been entered. The flowers are quite different 
from any other Marigold, Scabiosa-like in formation with 
tubular deep orange center petals flanked by broad velvety 
dark maroon-brown guard petals. The plants are dwarf and 
very early. 
MARVEL OF PERU (See Four-o'clock) 
MIGNONETTE, Reseda Odorata Grandiflora 
This old-fashioned flower still enjoys the greatest popular¬ 
ity. Grown for its sweet perfume, which is most pronounced 
when grown in a light sandy soil. 
Giant Machet. Compact plants with large reddish spike. 
Dark green savoy-leaved foliage. 
Giant White. Large and massive spikes with white fluffy 
flowers. 
Finest Mixed. Includes only large flowering varieties of 
sweet scented Mignonette. 
MORNING GLORY (See Ipomoea) 
MOSS ROSE (See Portulaca) 
NASTURTIUM 
Few garden annuals respond with as little care as the 
Nasturtium. For ease of culture, duration of bloom, brilliancy 
of coloring and general excellency, they are unexcelled. All 
they need is a moderately good soil, in a well drained, sunny 
position and from within a few weeks from the time they are 
sown until hard frost comes, there is an endless profusion 
of their gorgeous blossoms. 
Dwarf Double Golden Globe. See page 2. 
Glorious Gleam Hybrids. Award of Merit, All-America Selec¬ 
tions, 1935. Glorious Gleam Hybrids are delightfully sweet 
scented, beautifully double. The semi-dwarf plants throw 
short runners from well rounded free flowering bushes. The 
color range includes a brilliant blend of salmon, golden yellow, 
orange scarlet, cerise, cream, orange, maroon and crimson 
shades, and many spotted varieties. Finest Mixed. 
Dwarf Double Gem Mixture. Novelty introduction, 1935. Our 
Gem Mixture, composed of an evenly balanced range of cheer¬ 
ful colors on dwarf, compact gem-like plants, is the ideal an¬ 
nual for border and edging use. The plants are truly dwarf 
and compact, totally without runners. 
GOLDEN GLEAM (Novelty). This new type is of semi-trail¬ 
ing habit and is a new development in Nasturtiums. The 
plant forms a vigorous large bush which throws out short 
runners, averaging 18 inches. The sweet scented, large 
double flowers are of a golden yellow color and average 2 to 
3 inches across. 
TALL OR CLIMBING NASTURTIUMS. For covering trel 
lises, fences, arbors, piazzas, trailing from vases, over rock- 
work, etc., nothing can equal the gorgeous effect produced
