BEAUTIFUL AND POPULAR SCABIOSA 
SPLENDID CUT FLOWER 
Among the PARK favorites, the new and lovely SWEET SCABIOSA 
stands high. The plants grow 2 1 /2'-3' tall and become a waving mass of 
exquisite flowers, borne aloft on long strong stems and exhibiting a great 
diversity of colors if planted in mixture; or one may have a fine bed of the 
lovely choice and distinct varieties. When started from seeds in Autumn, the
