Three King Larkspurs 
WHITE KING. This new Larkspur, which 
received a special mention in the 1937 All-America 
Seed .Selections, is, without question, the finest 
white Larkspur ever produced. The blooms are 
unusually large, about 2 inches in diameter, fully 
double, closely spaced on the long, tapering spikes, 
and in color are a pure glistening white. The 5-foot 
plants are of true Imperial, base-branching type 
and bloom about a week ahead of others of this 
.class. Pkt. 50 cts.

pression is pale, delicate coral-pink with a salmon 
tint—something new in Larkspurs. Plants are com¬ 
pact, 5 feet or over in height, producing 2 to 23^- 
foot spikes of these lovely flowers. Pkt. 50 cts. 
BLUE KING. Another of the King strain of 
Super Larkspurs, with the same large double 
flowers but of an exquisite shade of blue. Pkt.

Nasturtium/ Dwarf Double/ 
Golden Globe (annual) 
/^\An outstanding sport of the well-known 
Nasturtium Golden Gleam, retaining the char¬ 
acteristic sweet scent and semi-double golden 
yellow flower, but forming a more compact, true 
dwarf, globe-shaped form. We believe this to be the 
beginning of a new race of meritorious double dwarf 
Nasturtiums. Pkt. 50 cts., 5 pkts. $2. 
Nasturtium/ Dwarf Double Gem, Mixed 
ANNUAL 
A truly dwarf, compact strain of sweet-scented 
double Nasturtiums. Plants are entirely without 
runners. If planted in poor soil, the compact, globe- 
shaped plants produce a mass of bloom. The large, 
fully double flowers present an excellent color-range 
including shades of yellow, orange, scarlet, crimson, 
salmon, cerise, cream, and maroon. Both light and 
dark foliage plants appear in this mixture. Pkt. 
25 cts., 3d>oz- $1.25.

PERENNIAL

with close, bushy foliage that is almost entirely 
hidden by the mass of blooms which are bright yel¬ 
low with a deep little zone. Pkt. 75 cts., 3 pkts. $2.
