SUNFLOWER 
Henderson’s New Hybrid 
These gorgeous floral creations have been bred by the raiser of our original "Red 
Sunflower." When a horticultural break of this kind occurs among plants that 
can only be propagated by seeds, it sometimes takes several years to "true up” to 
any selected type by the only recourse, selection. Therefore variations may be 
expected even among the forms we now catalogue, while some of these "off types” 
may come "too much” yellow. Yet all will be showy and desirable—with the 
possibility of some unique and beautiful freak appearing, thus adding to the pleasur¬ 
able interest in watching Henderson’s New Hybrid Sunflowers grow. 
3776 “Albino.” Our "Red Sunflower” expert has, by hybridization, created this 
new type, a "Near White.” The large single flowers— 4 to 6 inches across— 
are of a light-cream or yellowish-white and have broad, overlapping petals 
and small dark centers. The plants grow about 6 feet tall, are of upright 
branching habit . Per Y oz., 50c; Pkt. 10c. 
3779 “Lilliput Hybrids.” An improved race of the "Cucumerifolius” or dwarf bush 
Sunflowers, forming sturdy, branching plants 3 to 4 feet high, and producing 
freely and continuously from early summer until frost, long-stemmed flowers 
of perfect form, 3 to 4 inches across. The colors vary from cream-white 
through various shades of yellow from primrose to deep golden, including a 
good percentage of plants bearing flowers zoned, tipped or ringed with red, 
rose, purple, etc .. Per 100 seeds, 25c; Pkt. 10c. 
3782 “Old Rose and Primrose.” This new type has been produced by crossing a 
red Sunflower on the cream or primrose-colored garden variety. The resultant 
hybrid plants are of distinctive branching growth;—almost candelabra-like— 
attaining a height of about 5 feet. The numerous side branches each terminate 
with a Sunflower 5 to 6 inches across, of light primrose-yellow, broadly zoned 
around the disc with wine-rose. Per Y oz., 50c; Pkt. 10c. 
3783 “Red and Gold.” The plants of Henderson’s "Red and Gold” Sunflower 
grow strong, sturdy and branching to a height of 7 to 9 feet, producing several 
large flowers of refined form. The coloring varies from golden-yellow splashed 
with red to nearly all red, but the great majority will be Gaillardia colored — 
that is a wide zone of red surrounds the purplish-black center, the ends or tips 
of the petals being of a rich golden-yellow color; this combination is very rich 
and effective. (See engraving.) . Per Yi oz., 50c; Pkt. 10c. 
3786 “Semi-Double and Collarette.” The plants are of the same branching, free- 
flowering habits and easy culture as our “Red and Gold” Sunflower and the 
large flovvers 4 to G inches across, have the same colorings—reds and garnets 
tipped with gold and yellow. The seeds we offer have been saved exclusively 
/rom densely double, semi-double and collarette flowering plants.
