Four King Larkspurs 
WHITE KING. This new Larkspur, which received 
a special mention in the 1937 All-America Seed Selec¬ 
tions, is, without question, the finest white Larkspur 
ever produced. The blooms are unusually large, about 
2 inches in diameter, fully double, closely spaced on 
the long, tapering spikes, and in color are a pure glisten¬ 
ing white. Pkt. 50 cts. 
CORAL KING. Novelty, 1937. The color impres¬ 
sion is pale, delicate coral-pink with a salmon tint 
something new in Larkspurs. Pkt. 50 cts. 
BLUE KING. Another of the King strain of Super 
Larkspurs, with the same large double flowers but of 
an exquisite shade of blue. Pkt. 50 cts. 
ROSE KING. Like the others of this famous family 
except that the large double flowers are an exquisite 
shade of rose. Pkt. 50 cts. 
COLLECTION: 1 pkt. each of King Larkspurs, $1.50 
Gypsophila cerastioides. See page 13 
Marigold, African, Gigantea 
The greatest improvement in African 
Marigolds in years. Great flowers, averaging 
over 5 inches in diameter, are freely produced 
on strong-growing plants with heavy foliage. 
The flowers are more loosely built than the 
ordinary African type, but are still quite firm 
with broad, heavy petals. A remarkable 
feature is that instead of the typical Marigold 
odor, blooms of Gigantea have a sweet fra¬ 
grance. The colors are golden orange, and 
various shades of yellow, lemon, and primrose. 
Pkt. 35 cts. 
French Marigold, Alldouble, 
Dwarf Royal Scot 
Special Mention, 1937 All-America Selec¬ 
tions. This spectacular little French Marigold 
received a well-deserved mention in this 
year’s All-America Selections. It is the small 
Marigold that every gardener has been look¬ 
ing for, as the flowers are all double and the 
plants are all uniform in their 10-inch growth. 
The color is rich mahogany and gold in uni¬ 
form stripes. A grand little Marigold. Illus¬ 
trated in color on page 22. Pkt. 35 cts. 
Marigold, Collarette, Yellow Crown 
A development from last year’s odorless 
novelty. Crown of Gold. The plants are 
stronger growing with larger flowers. Color is 
pure canary-yellow, a shade which is so useful 
for decorative purposes, and as both flowers 
and foliage are odorless, it is an ideal cut- 
flower. Pkt. 35 cts. 
White King Larkspurs 
French Marigold, Flaming Fire 
A French Marigold which is as fickle as a 
whim. The color varies from day to day and 
at times on the same plant there will be flow¬ 
ers ot brilliant orange, others mahogany-red, 
and still others will be a combination of 
orange and mahogany. Pkt. 25 cts.
