possibilities for forcing 
Petunia, All-Double Orchid Beauty. (New) 
ing on white ground. New and attractive shade in All-Doubles. 
% tr. pkts. only, (300 seeds), $1.25. 
Petunia, Ball Dwarf Giant No. 1. The most uniformly dwarf giant 
strain available. 
y 2 tr. pkt., 75c; tr. pkt., $1.25; 1/64 oz., $2.25; 1/32 oz., $4.00; 
1/16 oz., $7.00. 
Petunia, Dwarf Elk's Pride. Introduced by us last season and 
should be used in place of the original 
stock because of more dwarf habit. About 
two-thirds as tall as original Elk’s Pride, 
otherwise identical to that well known 
velvety purple. 
Tr. pkt., 50c; 1/64 oz., $1.00; 1/32 oz., 
$1.75. 
Petunia, White Queen. Extra large, ruf¬ 
fled, clear white. Quite outstanding for 
size, being fully 50% larger than White 
Cloud. Medium dwarf. We find this the 
finest white for either bedding or pots. 
Tr. pkts. only, 60c. 
Poppy, (Oriental), Olympia. (New). 
Highly attractive, light scarlet with sal¬ 
mon shading. 40-50% of this variety will 
come double flowering. This, combined 
with its original color, gives it outstand¬ 
ing value among hardy perennials. 
Tr. pkts. only, 60c. 
Primula Malacoides, "Brilliancy." This is 
a deep rose Erikssoni strain. Flowers 
open light, deepening as they fully de¬ 
velop. Well liked for any purpose, espe¬ 
cially combinations. 
Tr. pkt., $1.00; 6 pkts. $5.00. 
Salvia, Firebrand. Early flowering, fairly 
dwarf, and exceptionally uniform habit 
describes our strain of Firebrand Salvia. 
Crop usually short. Order early. 
Tr. pkt,, 50c; % oz., 85c; 1 oz., $3.00. 
Matricaria, Ball Strain. Another Ball introduction that most growers prefer to the 
ordinary Feverfew for cutting because the flowers are harder and stand handling better. 
Flowers semi-anemone type. A January sowing will flower outdoors in July. Produces 
5-10% rogues. Very uncertain in producing seed. We suggest propagating from cut¬ 
tings of most desirable type. 
% tr. pkt., 30c; tr. pkt., 50c; % oz., $1.00. 
Myosotis, Ball's Early. An extra early flowering strain of the Blue Bird type and color. 
Should be used exclusively for cutting and valuable for pots or bedding. 
Tr. pkt., 35c; % oz., 85c; 1 oz., $2.85. 
Nierembergia Hippomanica. 
Light lavender-blue flowers 
freely and continuously pro¬ 
duced throughout our very hot 
mid-west summers. Uniformly 
dwarf compact growth, making 
it ideal and attractive for bor¬ 
der work. A perennial that will 
winter over with some protec¬ 
tion where winters are not 
severe. (See cut at right). 
Tr. pkt., of 1000 seeds, 50c; 
1/32 oz., $1.75. Seed is very 
small and shouldn’t be cov¬ 
ered. 
Petunia, Admiral. Our supply 
of Admiral is exclusively from 
the German originator, and our 
trials show it 98% true, one 
rogue showing in 50 plants. 
Very uniformly dwarf, fairly 
dark blue, and medium size. 
Flowers attractively ruffled. 
Stock limited. 
Tr. pkt., 75c; 1/32 oz., $1.75; 
1/16 oz., $3.00. 
Irregular lilac shad- Scabiosa, Giant Hybrids. (Annual). A well-balanced mixture of 
all the brightest colors in this class. Long-stemmed and valuable 
for summer cutting. 
Tr. pkt., 15c; 1 oz., 50c. 
Schizanthus, Ball Brilliant Blend. Most strains of Schizanthus are 
inclined to be weak in color variation. Our Brilliant Blend is not 
a strain but our balanced mixture containing every choice, strong 
color available. Excellent for cutting. 
Tr. pkt., 35c; % oz., 75c; % oz., $1.15. 
Our trial ground line of this past summer was 
continuously in flower at height of 4-6 in. 
Petunia White Queen 
Exact photo as was, one plant from our last 
spring's greenhouse trials 
Snapdragon, Early Sunlite. Pleasing golden 
orange and extra early flowering. This is 
our selection from the variety New Deal, 
that it improves in greater uniformity of 
color and habit. Earliest flowering forc¬ 
ing variety. 
Tr. pkt., $1.00; 3 pkts., $2.50; 5 pkts., 
$3.50. 
Stock, Non-Branching Ball's Blue No. 3. 
Sent out by us several years ago, this deep

or, it is identical to Lilac Lavender, from 
which we selected it. True non-branching 
and around 65% double. 
% tr. pkt., 60c; tr. pkt., $1.00; % oz., 
$2.25; 1 oz., $8.00. 
Stock, Non-Branching Ball's Rose Pink 
No. 14. (New). A shade deeper than 
Bismarck Rose. We believe this will be 
preferred to our Ball’s Pink No. 11, that 
is a shade lighter. True non-branching 
habit, and around 60% double. Flowers 
closely set on long stems. 
% tr. pkt., 60c; tr. pkt., $1.00; % oz., 
$2.25; 1 oz, $8.00.

med and stronger growth than Bismarck
