FLORISTS' STOCKS 
GIANT COLUMN (Non-Branching Double Excelsior) 
This new type produces one enormous spike 2 to 3 feet in height and 
is especially adapted for greenhouse culture, as the plants can be 
grown close together. We have discontinued listing the other separate 
colors in this type, due to its being practically impossible to obtain 
seed that will prove satisfactory and give a high percentage of doubles. 
Those listed are, in the opinion of most florist growers, the only reliable 
colors to grow.

GIANTS OF CALIFORNIA 
'Indicates Most Popular Colors and Shades 
This magnificent new group is so marked in improvement that we 
believe they will head the list in florists' forcing Stocks in the very 
near future. Giants of California are very early flowering, with a high 
percentage of double mammoth flowers and have the branching habit 
of the Bismarck. If planted close they will nearly attain the height of 
the Column Stock, approximately 2 V 2 to 3 feet. We can with con¬ 
fidence recommend this strain to the florist grower.
