These are the latest developments in this favorite autumn-flowering annual; 
the flowers are giants, often 4 to 5 inches across. The petals are broad and 
nverlapping. and of splendid substance. For cutting this is one of the finest 
flowers grown. The long stems and feathery foliage lend themselves to graceful 
arrangements. The plants, 5 to 6 feet high, are of symmetrical, pyramidal form.

early cosmos. FLOWERING. 
Unfortunately, large-flowering Cosmos do not bloom until late in the season. 
This new early-flowering strain begins to bloom scatteringly in June, the quantity 
increasing gradually^ until August, and from that time until frost the plants are 
a mass of flow'ers. The flowers are smaller and the plants are dw'arfer than the 
late-flowering Cosmos offered above, 
forming compact bushes only 4 
feet high. The colors are 
white, crimson and pink, 
which we offer only in 
Mixed Colors.
