Cuphea Firefly 
HIS COLORFUL lit¬ 
tle border or edging 
plant has definitely 
made a place for itself 
in the garden scheme. 
Dwarf, compact, neat in 
habit, showy and color¬ 
ful, Cuphea Firefly is in¬ 
deed a joy for garden 
lovers. The flowers are 
small and delicately 
formed, butterfly-like in 
appearance, fiery ce¬ 
rise red in color, and are 
freely produced on com¬ 
pact plants which reach 
a height of about 10 
inches. The general ef¬ 
fect of a plant when in 
full bloom is that of a 
brightly decorated little 
Christmas bush. Firefly is excellent as an edging or border plant, is colorful for 
window boxes or flower pots, and adds a welcome touch of color to the rockery. 
It is a tender annual, flowering readily in 12 to 14 weeks from seed, and blooms 
profusely for several weeks. In a mass or tucked in among other plants, Cuphea 
is a delight.

Delphinium Blackmore and Langdon 
Mildew Resistant Strain 
T HE FAMOUS Blackmore and Langdon Gold Medal Delphiniums need no in¬ 
troduction to any seedsman. The fact that there is now available a strain 
resistant to mildew may however be news to some. Although not all the seed¬ 
lings will be 100% immune to the disease, repeated trials have proved it a defi¬ 
nitely resistant strain. It has proved itself perfectly resistant when growing along 
side other plants which have become badly infected. Besides this, the strain is 
extremely hardy and well suited for growing in the colder climates and has 
shown strong resistance to all types of weather conditions. Practically all Del¬ 
phinium colors are included in the mixture, although the lighter shades of blue 
will predominate. Although seed supplies are limited, we are very glad to an¬ 
nounce that we are in a position to supply seed in bulk, as long as the supply 
lasts, as well as in the originators' packets. All seed is imported direct from the 
originators and is the very finest money can buy.
