AGERATUM "MIDGET BLUE" 
Awarded Silver Medal, All-America Council 
A very fine dwarf (2-3 inches high) Ageratum with delicate fine foliage, which is practically 
smothered with small true Ageratum Blue flowers. Really the first Ageratum that will come 
uniformly dwarf and true to color from seed. Ageratum Midget Blue was awarded a Silver Medal 
in last year's All-America Trials, but due to insufficient seed being available the introduction was 
withheld until this season.

TWO OUTSTANDING 
NEW BEGONIAS 
"RED PEARL" and "ROSE 
PEARL" 
Truly pearls in the dwarf class 
of Begonias. Grow about 6 to 7 
inches high with small bronze 
foliage. Of unusual compact 
growth and such rich-branching 
habit that the profusion of blooms 
gives the appearance of an im¬ 
mense umbel of flowers. For 
beds, borders and especially 
valuable for pots, both for 
Mothers' Day and Winter-flower¬ 
ing. Resulting from a cross by 
one of the leading Begonia spe¬ 
cialists in Germany, only this 
originator's seed can be depend¬ 
ed upon to come true.
