Hunnemannia, Sunlite 
Nicotiana affinis 
Crimson Bedder 
Every garden should have a quantity of fragrant 
Flowering Tobacco, as it is not only pleasing to the 
eye but whenever there is any dampness in the air 
the sweet scent of the flowers perfumes the entire 
garden with its jasmine scent. Crimson Bedder is 
an accommodating variety, keeping itself down to 
15 inches high and just about covers itself with 
deep crimson flowers from midsummer until frost. 
The Nicotianas are easy to grow, and do well in 
most any good soil. For early blooming, sow the 
seed in flats inside, transplanting to the garden as 
soon as the weather becomes warm. Pkt. 25 cts. 
Hunnemannia, Sunlite 
Award of Merit, 1934. The Tulip Poppies are all 
lovely and easy to grow, but we think that Sunlite is 
the best one yet. The golden yellow flowers are semi-double, 
have great substance, and, having long stems, are superb 
cut-flowers in addition to their garden value. Pkt. 25 cts. 
Tahoka Daisy 
Nicotiana affinis, Crimson Bedder 
Tahoka Daisy 
Machaeranthera tanacetifolia 
A beautiful native of Mexico and our 
own Southwest, which blooms all the time 
from mid-June until late autumn. The 
flowers are lovely Daisies of a rich shade 
of violet-blue-lavender, with two or three 
rows of petals surrounding a large yellow 
cushion. Plants grow about 20 inches tall 
and are very bushy, each branch ending 
in a flower. The foliage is fern-like, with 
a shredded appearance, and looks as if it 
ought to belong to a poppy. 
Its flowers make a fine show in the gar¬ 
den and are excellent for cutting. The 
Tahoka Daisy is really a winter annual 
and can be sown in open ground in late 
autumn; for spring planting, sow outside 
as soon as frost is out of the ground, so the 
seedlings can get a good start before hot 
weather arrives. The finest annual for 
cut-flowers in years. Pkt. 50 cts.
