GIANT COLUMN, NON-BRANCHING DOUBLE EXCELSIOR 
This new type produces one enormous spike 2 to 3 feet in height and 
is especially adapted for greenhouse culture, as the plants can be grown 
close together. We have discontinued listing the other separate colors 
in this type, due to its being practically impossible to obtain seed that 
will prove satisfactory and give a high percentage of doubles. Those 
listed are, in the opinion of most florist growers, the only reliable colors 
to grow.

Tahoka Daisy 
A beautiful free-flowering annual with fern-like foliage. The daisy¬ 
like flowers are a beautiful lavender-blue color and grow on good long 
stems, which make them splendid for cutting. Seed sown inside in April 
will commence to flower the latter part of June. For good germination, 
we suggest putting the seed in a refrigerator for a week or ten days.
