McCullough'S seeds 
v-ynogiossum, l-irmamenT 
Ageratum, Midget Blue 
A very dwarf Ageratum growing 2 to 3 inches high with deli¬ 
cate, fine foliage, which is practically smothered with small, true 
Ageratum-blue flowers. Awarded a Silver Medal in the 1939 
All-America trials. Fkt., 25c. 
Alyssum, Violet Queen 
The white flowering Sweet Alyssum, with its honey-like odor, 
has long been an indispensable garden favorite, more especially 
the dwarf, compact forms, which are of such charming effects as 
edgings in the makeup of summer borders. From the original 
white form some colored varieties have been developed, but none 
of a very decided shade. The flowers of this new variety are a 
very bright violet tint, and we have no doubt that Violet Queen 
will be found of much value as a pleasant alternative to the old 
favorite white-flowering variety. Fkt., 25c. 
Antirrhinum (Snapdragon) 
Large Flowered Rust-Resistant, Rosalie 
This exciting color is entirely new in Snapdragons. It is a rich 
deep rose with an underlying tone of topaz or amber, giving it a 
richness which makes it stand out conspicuously among all others. 
The entire flower is the same color which greatly intensifies the 
depth and richness of color. The plants are base-branching and 
produce from 6 to 8 huge, long flowering spikes. Awarded a 
Bronze Medal in the 1939 All-America Trials. Fkt., 25c. 
Aquilegia (Columbine) 
Longissima Hybrids 
The introduction some years ago of the Yellow Columbine 
Longissima, with its increased length of spurs, often 4 inches 
long, greatly enhance its attractions. Now we offer the new 
hybrids which contain all the beautiful hues, in red, blue, white, 
rose, etc. Fkt., 35c. 
Aster, Giant Harmony Mixture 
A new cut flower type in Asters. Similar in habit to the Giants 
of California, plants are 2 to 2 '/^ feet tall, with very long basal 
branching stems, bearing 4- to 4i,4->nch blooms. These large 
flowers have full-double cjuiUed rounded centers, which open bright 
gold, surrounded by several rows of broad short guard petals. 
Colors include lovely shades of light and deep blue, flesh, peach 
blossom, silvery rose, purple and white. Available in a mixture 
only. Fkt., 20c. 
Aster, Wilt-Resistant Early Giant 
Light Blue 
This wilt-resistant variety is worthy of recommendation and it 
is a beautiful large lacy flower, largest type of aster, like a glori¬ 
fied giant Crego aster. It is earlier blooming than other giants, 
on three-foot branching plants, with good stems and has curled 
and interlaced petals in abundance to form 6-inch flowers of 
splendid cutting and keeping qualities. Color light blue, very 
popular for cut flowers and is light enough for garden attention 
in the border. Awarded Silver Medal, 1938 All-America Selections. 
Fkt., 20c. 
Seed ^ 04 jeWei 
Calandrinia, Amaranth 
This beautiful sun-loving plant thrives in hot dry weather, blooming exposed 
to the full sunshine when other plants may be suffering. It is especially valu¬ 
able for summer flowering on warm borders and rockeries. Grows some 3 inches 
high, very compact. The vivid crimson-purple flowers make a rich display from 
.July onwaids into September. Hardy annual. Fkt., 30c. 
Cornflower, Lilac Lady 
Few new annuals have created as much interest as cornflower Jubilee Gem 
introduced some three years ago. In Lilac Lady we offer a counterpart in hab.t, 
with flowers of an attractive shade of bright lilac-mauve. The color will find 
favor for all purposes to which Jubilee Gem has adapted itself. As an edging 
plant, or for clumps in borders, it is admirably suited. Lilac Lady also makes 
a fine pot plant. Fkt., 25c. 
Cynoglossum, Firmament 
We believe this novelty will rapidly become very popular for it has all the 
essentials of a good garden plant. Firmament is as easy to grow as any hardy 
annual. It is compact and free flowering. Flowers resemble those of forget- 
me-nots and are bright indigo-blue in color. Hardy annual, height 1 to 1% ft. 
Awarded Bronze Medal, 1938 All-America Selections. Fkt., 25c.

diameter of individual flowers with very heavy glistening texture, pyramidal

bee. Individual flowers 2 to 2i,4 inches in diameter. The growth has all the 
desirable characteristics, making it an ideal cut and show flower. Fkt., 50o.

carried at the tips of the stems, rather than on the side of the stems, making a 
show of color rather than of foliage. The plants are 8 to 10 inches in height, 
very compact and literally covered with their double flowers.
