Marigold—Crown of Gold WHITE KING is without any question one of the finest 
Centaurea—Jubilee Gem 
Verbena Hybrida Grandiflora 
Crimson Glow 
VERBENA Crimson Glow is the fin¬ 
est and deepest red shade available in 
this popular garden flower. Rich, glow¬ 
ing crimson, the flowers are a solid 
mass of color, making a striking bed or 
border in the garden. Unlike other red 
Verbena varieties, there is no contrast¬ 
ing lighter eye to detract from the color 
tone. Individual florets are of good size, 
about an inch in diameter, carried in 
full clusters.

New Morning Glory Scarlet 
O'Hara 
(See Front Cover) 
(1938 All America Gold Medal) 
An early Morning Glory, the blooms 
measure from three to four inches in 
diameter and are a vivid scarlet, but 
lacking the harshness usually found in 
this color. Although not readily seen, 
there is just enough orange hidden in 
the color make-up to give the impres¬ 
sion that the blooms are of soft velvet. 
The grand feature of this new Morning 
Glory is that it is very early. The first 
flowers will begin to appear in about 
sixty-five days from seed. A prolific 
bloomer and the blooms remain open all 
day, even in the warmest weather.

(Below)—Larkspur 
Giant Imperial White King 
Giant Imperial Larkspur devel¬ 
oped. The flowers are pure glis¬ 
tening white with rounded broad 
petals. The florets are extremely 
large and fully double, measuring 
as much as 2 inches across, and 
are evenly and closely spaced on 
the stem. This gives a very heavy 
Hollyhock-like cutting spike from 
24 to 30 inches long. The plants 
are tall, of the true Giant Im¬ 
perial basal branching type, and 
very early blooming, coming into 
flower more than a week earlier 
than other Giant Imperial varie¬ 
ties. For cut flower use. White 
King cannot be surpassed.

Marigold—Crown of Gold 
All-America Gold Medal 
Winner—The Best New 
Flower in 1937 
The only Marigold in cultiva¬ 
tion with entirely odorless foliage; 
delightfully sweet-scented flowers 
on long stems. A distinctly new 
type flower. Unusual and attrac¬ 
tive—the crown or top part of the 
flower resembles a Chrysanthemum 
in formation and is made up of 
long, beautifully incurved disc pet¬ 
als. The crown and collar of big, 
broad petals which surround it are 
of a bright, pleasing shade of clear 
golden orange. The crown of the 
flower measures 2J4 inches across. 
Plants grow 2 feet tall. They are 
early flowering and bloom pro¬ 
fusely all summer long. "Crown of 
Gold” is lovely in the garden and 
wonderful as a cut-flower.

Centaurea—Jubilee Gem 
1937 All-America Award of Merit 
A gem in the true sense of the word, sure 
to be wanted where blue flowers are needed. 
The plants are of neat, dwarf, compact 
growth, about 1 foot tall, and literally cov¬ 
ered with vivid blue, double blooms of un¬ 
usual purity. Fine for edgings, borders, rock 
gardens and pots.
