FLOWER SEED NOVELTIES for 1938 
POPPY 
DOUBLE ORIENTAL, OLYMPIA, hp. 
This is the first double, large-flowering, perennial Poppy to be produced 
from seed. Although for the present only 40 to 50 per cent of the seedlings 
come double, I do not hesitate to recommend this novelty. Growers can 
easily and quickly propagate the plants with double flowers, and amateurs 
will be equally delighted with doubles or singles. The further advantage 
of this novelty is in its early flowering season, which alone is sufficient to 
distinguish it from other types of Oriental varieties. From the middle of 
May the large scarlet flowers on the 30-inch stems are very attractive in 
the perennial borders and also as grown in separate groups. Pkt. 50 cts.; 
3 pkts. SI. 25. 
Olympia Poppy 
SALVIA, NEW DWARF GEM. HHA. 
This new Salvia is of Tom Thumb dimensions and of 
compact habit, not exceeding 6 to 8 inches in height. It is 
early, very free-flowering, and produces enormous spikes 
of flowers, 4 to 5 inches long, of a most vivid scarlet color. 
An excellent variety for bedding purposes and for borders. 
Pkt. 50 cts. 
SALVIA PATENS, MAUVE QUEEN 
HHA. 
The great popularity of the beautiful Salvia patens 
makes it certain that there will be a very wide demand 
for this novelty. It is of exactly the same habit and growth 
as Patens, but the flowers are a beautiful heliotrope-mauve. 
Mauve Queen comes perfectly true from seed, and we 
specially recommend it as a variety of outstanding merit. 
Pkt. 50 cts.

singly and in pairs, are large, very broad, of a good mid¬
