SALPIGLOSSIS 
Giant Flowered Type 
This new Dwarf strain of Salpiglossis grows 
two feet high, has flowers that measure 
from two to three inches across, has a 
brighter color range and is very attractive 
because of the uniform height when in 
bloom. The uniform height is about one 
foot less than the ordinary variety. This gives the flowers 
a much larger appearance. They are all strong growers and 
produce thick, bushy, symmetrical plants. We predict a great 
future for this dwarf type of Salpiglossis.

PORTULACA—Moss Rose or Sun Rose 
This hardy annual grows about six inches high, and really 
is a gem in the garden. Will thrive in a dry sunny spot 
where most other flowering plants will not thrive. We have 
a new type that is upright instead of spreading. You will find 
it in the following listing. Flowers are double, 1 Vz inches in 
diameter and a mixture of all colors of the rainbow. They 
make a dazzling display of color throughout the fall. 
The dainty cup-like flowers spread rapidly, forming a gay 
carpet from July to October. Broadcast the seed on ground 
that is moist (not wet) and press into soil with flat board.
