Eschscholtzias are among our most beautiful and 
popular annuals, being of the easiest culture and giving 
great satisfaction. Prom spring-sown seeds thev flower 
profusely until late in the autumn, making them in¬ 
valuable for bedding. The flowers of these new giants 
are of immense size, from 4 to 5 inches in diameter. They 
are beautifully and variously formed; some are flat and 
wide, some saucer-shaped, others very deep with flaring 
wavy edges. These magnificent flowers call forth the 
most enthusiastic admiration from beholders; the colors 
are intense and shining yellows. In some an orange 
blotch almost suffuses the whole flower, in others it runs 
into the yellow in fine penciled lines, others again have 
an orange centre with a margin of clear yellow. {See cut.)

QIANT HARDY HYBRID — 
v — GAILLARDI AS. 
The flowers are extraordinarily large, often 4 to 5 inches 
across, and very highly colored in great diversity of varia¬ 
tions and blendings, including such combinations as dazzling 
scarlet with gold edge, blood-crimson with yellow edge, yel¬ 
low with orange disk, golden with scarlet border, pure yel¬ 
low, fiery crimson and many others. These magnificent 
Gaillardias are hardy perennials, less coarse and more com¬ 
pact in growth than the older kinds and they produce a 
constant succession of flowers all summer and fall; when 
grown in large groups they are gorgeously effective. As 
cut flowers they are almost unrivaled; the immense and 
brilliant flowers, on long, self-supporting stems, “vase” 
handsomely, and they last in water for days.
