Petunia, Hollywood Star 
This lovely new Petunia is a charming shade of rich rose with an amber 
throat. This petunia is unique in the form of its flower which consists of 
a five-pointed star, this is a very fine garden variety as it is early and free- 
blooming and the strong vigorous plants being smothered with blooms.

Petunia, Rose Crepe de Chine 
For form and habit this new petunia belongs in the miniature or Gem 
class, but for texture of petals it belongs in a class of its own. The petals 
remind us of Crepe 
de Chine which the 
dictionary defines as 
soft gauzy material 
crinkled-like crepe. 
The medium size 
flowers are also 
waved. The color is 
a fine rich rose. Fkt.,

Salmon Supreme Petunia 
Petunia, “Salmon Supreme" 
A new color in petunias, and one that has been long wanted. The 
flowers, when first opening, are of a rich coral-salmon, changing as they 
mature to a glistening soft salmon-pink with a lighter throat. The 
flowers are about 2 inches across and are deeply 5-lobed. The plants pre¬ 
sent a very tidy appearance and have a nicely rounded form which is 
retained throughout the season. They have a uniform height of about 
1 foot and a spread of about 1 V 2 feet. All flowers elevated above the 
light fresh green foliage which harmonizes beautifully. The refined 
shape of the plants together with the very desirable color of the flowers 
make Salmon Supreme an ideal petunia for borders, edgings or beds. 
Award of Merit, 1937 All-America Selections. Fkt., 25c each.

Nolana "Blue Ensign" 
Scabiosa Imperial Giants "Blue Moon" 
Scabiosa, Blue Moon 
This new novelty belongs to the Imperial Giant type, with 
large deep lavender-blue flowers, a reminder of Blue Cockade 
but with 3 to 4-ft. columner plants; long, wiry basil branching, 
erectly held stems. This is of the bee hive-shape, deep and wide, 
covered with petals and without the pincushion top, an excellent 
cut flower variety. Honorable Mention 1938 All America Selec¬ 
tions. Fkt., 25c. 
Scabiosa, Royal Cockade 
The conical form, accompanied by an unusual and attractive 
depth of flower, assured Blue Cockade an earlier introduction, a 
special popularity. Royal Cockade similar in shape, has an 
even more distinct cone formation, and the individual florets and 
flowers are larger. In color, this novelty is an attractive shade 
of salvia blue. Royal Cockade will prove an excellent cut flower 
as well as a good garden variety. Fkt., 25c. 
Scabiosa, Rose Cockade 
In form and shape it is similar to the above Cockade variety. 
The color is a most alluring shade of bright rosy lilac. Fkt., 25c.

flowers have an exceptionally attractive cone-shaped formation.

Verbena, Blue Sentinel

with medium-size florets and trusses. Habit of growth, color 
and flowering are uniformly true. Plants 10 to 12 inches high, 
awarded a bronze medal 1938 All America Selection. Fkt., 25c. 
Verbena, Brilliant 
The color is a rich, deep, flame-rose, with a medium-size white 
eye. The white eye helps to bring out the intense flame color 
in the rose. This is one of the richest colored verbenas since the 
introduction of the popular variety Luminosa, and quite an im¬ 
provement over the pink verbenas now grown. Seed shows a 
tendency to germinate more freely than most other verbenas. 
Fkt., 20c; 3 for 50c.
