greatly improved strain of this fine everlasting 
flower. Freely bears, extremely large, double 
flowers, at least twice the size of the ordinary 
strain, on 12 to 18 inch stems. The color 
range is especially rich in shades of salmon, 
apricot, pink, rose, and cerise, with white and 
creamy tones to balance the pastel mixture.

lasting can be dried for winter bouquets.

AGERATUM (Floss Flower) 
Blue Cap. Undoubtedly the most outstand' 
ing Ageratum. Small, compact foliage, com' 
pletely covered from midsummer until frost 
with large, deep, rich blue flowers, gives this 
plant a domedike appearance. Its height of 
about 6 in. makes it ideal for edging and excep' 
tionally fine for pot culture. Pkts. 25c and 10c 
Improved Blue Ball. The most dwarf of all 
Ageratums. Compact and even growth of the 
4 inch plants, and the almost complete smother' 
ing of the broad, green foliage with large rich 
blue flowers, over a long period, makes this a 
very outstanding variety. Pkts. 3 5c and 15c 
Blue Ball. Large, mid'blue, flossy heads in 
cushiondike formation, are supported over a 
long season of bloom, on compact plants. The 
finest strain of tall Blue Ball. Reselected, 8 
in. Pkts. 25c and 10c 
ALYSSUM (Sweet Alyssum) 
Little Dorrit. Compactum. Perfect, dwarf, 
compact bushes, 3 to 4 in. high. A mass of 
miniature white flowers. A gem for edgings 
and beds. Pkts. 25c and 10c 
Snowcloth. Procumbent. Each plant a flat 
mass of white without green center, 15 to 18 
in. in diameter. Very select. Pkts. 25c and 10c 
Lilac Queen. A very superior and distinct 
strain of this new annual variety of extra deep 
lavenderdilac color; 6 inch. Pkts. 25c and 10c. 
On orders of $i or more, not including spe¬ 
cial offers or collections, select any io or 15 c 
pkt. of floiver seed. This is my treat. A.P. 
ANCHUSA (Cape Forget-Me-Not) 
Capensis Bluebird. Special mention A.A.S. 
193 5. One of the few truly blue flowers and 
is among the first three blue annuals in garden 
merit. Graceful sprays of vivid indigo blue 
Forget'Me'Not'Like blooms, form a luxuriant 
bouquet at the top of a compact plant, 18 in. 
tall. In beds or borders they produce brilliant 
effects from early summer until late fall. Urn 
usually fine for cut flowers. Pkts. 25c and 10c 
ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon) 
New Rust Proof Maximum — Mixed. This 
new strain of giant, large flowering, Snapdragon 
is now 75 to 95% absolutely immune to rust 
which has caused so many failures in growing 
Snaps. Development of this strain brings us 
plants more vigorous, with larger blooms, and 
better color than the nomresistant type. Base 
branching in habit, having 12 to 18 long, strong 
spikes on which the blossoms are gracefully 
spaced. The broad foliage is clean and healthy, 
free from rust. This mixture contains all the 
colors that have been introduced in the non' 
resistant types and many new shades. This 
superior strain is highly recommended. Height, 
2^2'3 ft. Pkts. 50c, 25c, and 10c 
Super Majestic Rust Proof—Superb Mixture. 
Another one of the outstanding accomplish' 
ments in the development of new rust proof 
snapdragons. In this case the very popular 
Majestic type was not only bred for resistancy 
to rust, but the size and length of the flower 
spike was increased which results in a slightly 
taller plant, I /2 to 2 ft. high. This new group 
is recommended for cut flowers, for bedding 
and all other purposes in a garden. This srn 
perb mixture contains a fine range of color, 
and includes many rare and new colors in 
snapdragons that have not yet been introduced. 
Pkts. 60c, 35c and 15c
