A FRAGRANT GARDEN 
Who can afford to forego the pleasure of beginning a Fragrant Garden, with its magic perfumes 
which permeate the atmosphere with their exotic charm? At the very thoughts of such a garden, one 
catches a vision of a medley of blossoms emitting delightful scents wafted softly by balmy mid-summer 
breezes and made colorful by a flock of dainty gay butterflies and busy bees that will pause momentarily 
at each blossom to drink deeply of the hidden sweetness within. 
We are listing some flowers here that will be valued for both fragrance and beauty, arvd each will 
be a worth-while addition to your garden. Regular pkt. 5c; Jumbo pkt. 10c. 
SWEET ALYSSUM. A splendid little annual, valued 
as an edging plant, that will thrive under almost 
any conditions and produce scented clusters of 
bloom throughout the season. See page 26. 
CLEMATIS PANICULATA is a vine of exceptional 
beauty. Sow seeds in early Spring, and in three 
years they will become strong plants covered 
with dense, pretty foliage and a sheet of lovely 
star-like blossoms, making the air redolent with 
their sweet perfume. A splendid vine for a porch 
trellis or summer house. 
DIANTHUS PLUMARIUS. The Grass Pinks or Clove- 
scented Pinks need no introduction, as all of us 
remember these spicy blossoms of old-fashioned 
gardens. They are "must-haves" for every flow¬ 
er-lover. See page 62. 
VERBENAS will be most satisfactory plants as they 
are readily grown from seeds and come quickly 
into bloom. The bright, showy flowers are borne 
in abundance the entire season and yield their 
pungent sweetness generously to add to this 
pleasure garden. On page 46, you will find the 
finest varieties of Verbenas listed and we call 
your special attention to the compact erect type, 
a splendid new addition, in lovely colors. 
A ROSE has no rivals and will always reign as 
"Oueen of the Garden." No other flower gives as 
much beauty and lasting fragrance or will with¬ 
stand hardships so well. We urge you to have at 
least one rose bush in your garden and refer you 
to the choice named varieties we list on page 24. 
HESPERIS MATRONALIS. The lovely and delight¬ 
fully fragrant Sweet Rocket or Dame's Violet will 
bloom along with Perennial Phlox, and will prove 
to be a valuable plant for the garden. 
MIGNONETTE starts readily from seeds sown at 
intervals during Spring and early Summer. The 
flowers are not showy, but their delightful per¬ 
fume will fill the garden the entire season. An 
ounce of the seeds may be bought for only 10c, 
and they may be sown in odd places throughout 
the garden to give an abundance of fragrant 
bloom. 
Seeds of the compact varieties, sown in sum¬ 
mer, will give plants that may be potted for 
winter flowers. 
PETUNIAS will grace any garden. They are more 
easily grown, will bear more neglect, and will 
give more beauty and sweetness than almost any 
other flower. The common compact hybrids should 
be planted in masses or borders, and their wealth 
of bloom and perfume will be enjoyed until heavy 
frests. See page 14. 
SWEET PEAS are valued highly as cut-flowers, since 
they come into bloom so early and possess an un¬ 
surpassed wealth of color and fragrance to en¬ 
hance the charm of your garden. See page 18. 
TWILIGHT GEMS 
In the quiet of the evening, the exquisite perfume 
of a fragrant garden will be most delightful. For a 
showy, sweet-scented evening flower bed, plant a 
clump of Nicotiana Alfinis Hybrida Grandiflora and 
surround it with a ring of Matthiola Bicomis (the 
Evening-scented Stock) and Nycterinia Selaginoides. 
The Datura is a fascinating group of plants bearing 
large trumpet-shaped blossoms which open, as if by 
magic, in late evening and pour forth their wealth of 
heavy fragrance into the garden. See page 33. 
Hebenstretia Comota is a rare, sweet annual 
which fills the garden with a delicious nutty scent 
on warm summer evenings. The flowers are white 
with blotches of bright orange-scarlet, and are pro- 
duerd upon long spikes. 
All of these flowers will yield a continuous dis¬ 
play throughout the season, and keep the evening 
and night air redolent with their delightful perfume. 
MID-WINTER FRAGRANCE 
When the outside world is bleak and stripped of 
its summer verdure, your windows may be filled 
v/ith the beauty and fragrance of many lovely 
plants. 
CARNATIONS are perfect pot plants for winter 
blossoms. The improved strains we offer will 
bloom in six months from seeds, and will produce 
gorgeous, big sweet blossoms in the most beauti¬ 
ful colors. See page 30. 
FREESIAS are as easily raised from seeds as Zinnias, 
and if sown in Spring will produce plants that 
will bloom the following Winter. Their delightful 
fragrance is unsurpassed by any other flower. 
See page 68. 
PARISIAN WALLFLOWERS make splendid Winter¬ 
blooming plants in a window where they will be 
kept cool and moist. The flowers are produced in 
showy,sconfed spikes of various bright colors and 
develop continuously, giving a fine display 
throughout the winter months. 
STOCKS. Seeds of these splendid annuals will 
produce fine plants to pot for Winter blossoms. 
Give them rich, porous soil, plenty of water and 
good drainage. The bloom-spikes are bright, 
colorful and deliciously fragrant. 
BULBS —Bulbs such as Hyacinths, Narcissus, Daffo¬ 
dils and Tulips, which we offer in the Fall, are 
"must-haves" for a Winter window garden. These 
are all quickly and very easily grov/n and are 
valued for their beauty and sweetness.
