RED JAPS. Auten Originations 
These 19 varieties far surpass all the red Japs ever sent 
from Japan. They are 100 per cent U. S. A. Most of them 
are very brilliant, practically free from fading; others are 
rich with clear purple. 
Dragon’s Nest. Medium red, typical Jap except that 
many blooms have a large tuft in the center. 
Very brilliant for garden effect, comparable in 
that respect to Nippon Brilliant. 2.00 
Dress Parade. Light red Jap, lighter center. One 
of first Japs to bloom, fine vigorous plant. 2.00 
Dr. Jekyll. Plays a dual role. A late, brilliant dark 
red Jap, with center flushed distinctly lighter. At 
the same time there may be tufts or well built 
semi-double blooms. Plant habit and garden 
effect is extra good making a blaze of color late 
in season. 1.50 
Goblin. Bright red, center petaloids tipped and 
streaked lighter. Midseason. A free bloomer, 
tall stiff stems. 1.50

white. Medium height, stiff stems. 1.50 
Nippon Beauty. Rich deep red, with some yellow 
edges on center petaloids. Blooms stay good in 
hottest weather. Late. A strong grower and free 
bloomer. Substance and total effect combine to 
make it the best in its color range. It never fails 
to win approval. 5.00 
Nippon Brilliant. Medium dark red, almost scarlet, 
very clear and enduring, with contrasting yellow 
on center petaloids. Late, on tall stiff stems. 
This is now being hailed as the finest red Jap 
in commerce, seeming to surpass even Nippon 
Beauty. As the two are quite distinct there need 
be no rivalry. 12.00

late', fine plant. An outstanding dark red at a
