Dwarf Cup Flower 
NIEREMBERGIA HIPPOMANICA 
(Pictured in color on inside front cover) 
Last year many people took our word for the beauty of 
this little flower. This year they will take their neighbors', 
and as in most cases where they saw them, they will boost 
them as enthusiastically as we did. They are not difficult 
to germinate if treated the same as pansies. 
Flowers are lavender-blue with touch of yellow at center. 
Plants are compact 6 to 8 inches tall and spread about 8 
to 10 inches. Foliage is attractive but little noticed because 
of the HUNDREDS of flowers in bloom at one time. Use for 
bedding, for borders, window boxes, or in flower pots. 
Culture same as pansies. Pkt., 25c; 5 pkts., $1.00.
