A WORD TO THE WISE 
This year, when interest is going to be so sharply focused on the 
marvelous new perennial Russell Lupins, we would like to put in a 
good word for the Annual Lupins that are deserving of much more 
attention than they get. Annual Lupins are easy to grow, they are 
very lovely in the garden, they are invaluable for cutting, and you 
should know them better. Here is a new one ! Try it! It’s a beauty! 
ANNUAL LUPIN, ATTRACTION 
This veiy pleasing Annual Lupin has flowers of a soft shade of 
pure rose-pink. The centers of the flower standards carry a golden 
yellow shading. Blooms are very sweet-scented, and contrast 
admirably with the typically Lupin-like foliage. Pkt. 25c. 
SCABIOSA 
SALMON BEAUTY 
However it was that Scabiosa 
ever came by the name of Mourn¬ 
ing Bride is a question. “Blushing 
Bride” would be a truly appro¬ 
priate name for this new and ex¬ 
traordinarily fine variety, for it 
creates cheerfulness, gaiety, and 
sparkle wherever it goes. The 
plants, the stems and foliage, and 
the flowers are all “tops.” Try it.

SCABIOSA 
ROSETTE 
This entirely new variety among 
Scabiosas gives us a beautiful 
shade of deep coral-rose. The 
flowers are extra large and the 
stems are long and stiff. This 
glorious, glowing new color will 
undoubtedly make Rosette a most 
popular flower. Pkt. 25 c. 
MABIGOLD 
TOM THUMB, GOLDEN 
CROWN 
Here we have an “ace,” for it 
is a reliably dwarf form of Guinea 
Gold, its distinguished parent. 
The value of Golden Crown for 
the front section of a flower-bed 
can hardly be overrated. Height, 
10 inches. The illustration below 
indicates compact plant-habit.

MABIGOLD 
SIGNATA PUMILA, GOLD DUST 
The illustration, directly below, shows the very 
compact plant-habit of this superlative annual 
which is ideally suited for bordering the flower 
garden. The plants have beautiful, fern-like 
foliage, literally smothered throughout the entire 
season with two-toned, golden yellow flowers. 
We suggest massing our Velvety Violet Petunia 
directly behind a bordering of Gold Dust. The 
resulting color effect will prove very, very won¬ 
derful. Height, 6 to 8 inches. Pkt. 25c. 
Marigold, Tom Thumb,
