BEGONIA 
MULTIFLORA 
FL. PL. 
“COPPERY GOLD” 
Many flowers are like tiny roses, 
which are nominally very effective 
when opening. The combination of 
colors is wonderful: the foundation 
of old gold or golden yellow merges 
into copper red or coppery salmon 
and is usually tinged with carmine. 
The seedlings produce about 80% 
doubles; they bloom profusely and 
uninterruptedly from July onwards 
until the frost comes.

COSMOS “IMPROVED SENSATION” 
Introduced hy A. B. C. 
The Sensation type of Cosmos is today the favorite for cut-flower use, 
because of their immense size flowers, being over 4 to 5 inches in diame¬ 
ter and borne on strong stems 3 to 4 feet in length. The broad heavy fluted 
flower petals which slightly overlap give a very full single flower. Flowers 
are produced from 8 to 10 weeks after seed is sown. Since the introduction 
of "Sensation" a few years ago by A. B. C., this exceptionally early strain 
is recognized as the trade's outstanding Cosmos for cutting and garden 
decoration.

CENTAUREA IMPERIALIS 
“LAVENDER BEAUTY ’ 
Flowers of a soft feathery texture, colored light lavender with a creamy 
white center—that is a fitting description of "Centaurea Lavender Beauty." 
Its flowers are larger than other Imperialis type Centaurea and reach a 
size of 3 to 3 V2 inches. Heavy lateral branches give excellent cut flower 
possibilities and this delicately beautiful color will soon be a great 
favorite. Tr. Pkt.. . . 25c Vs oz... . 50c V4 oz.... 85c Oz.. . . $3.00 
NEW COSMOS 
“ DOUBLE SENSATION MIXED” 
Here is an extra Early Sensation Cosmos in a beautiful new double form.

also similar to the single Sensation in height and other habit character¬ 
istics. Two forms of double flowers are found in this new Sensa¬ 
tion group and both will average between AV 2 and 5 inches 
across—-the regular double crested and the newer and novel 
fluted types. Fine for cutting. Mixed colors.
