827. AGERATUM MIDGET BLUE.

produce dwarf Aperatums true to 
uaine from .seed. However, we are 
ideased to offer this season Agerafum 
Midjret Ulue whi(di will come prac¬ 
tically true to form and color from 
seed. The idants are very dwarf, not 
ov(‘r two to three inches in heiy;ht 
and smothered with small true .Isrei’- 
atum blue flowers. Tlie foliage is 
delicate and fine. 'I’liis variety was

1123. OLDS’ ALL DOUBLE MIXED SHIRLEY POPPY. H. A. Of all the 
new flowers we believe that the Olds' All Double Shirley Poppies are the most 
oinstaMdinfr introduction of the season. Note the front cover. The bushy plants 
gro^y about 28 inches in height and flower early in the 
summer with the richest display of color imaginable. 
Scarlet, carmine, crimson, dark and light pink, salmon 
shades, white, pink and white edged, scarlet on white 
ground, and pink on white grounds, as well as a bright 
cerise color. There are over 100 various color combina¬ 
tions in our growing this season. The airy-silky sheen 
of Shirley Poppies is particular to all shades. Formerly 
the best results obtained with the beautiful Ranunculi 
flowered poppies were 70 to 80 per cent double. This 
strain that we offer comes practically 100 per cent dou¬ 
ble from seed. Neither the' illustration on our front 
cover nor the description given here can begin to do 
justice to these beautiful flowers. We urge our customers 
to be sure to order a packet of this seed. Blooms are in 
general a good one-third larger than the old-fashioned 
strains of Shirley Poppies and are excellent for . cut 
flowers if cut in the bud. In order to introduce our new 
variety to you, we have priced this variety, which' ordi¬ 
narily would be priced at 35c, at the low price of 10c 
per packet. Seed stock is necessarily limited and we 
advise our customers to order at once so as not to be 
disappointed. Pkt., lOc; V 4 oz., 50c; 1/2 oz., 90c; oz.,

Po^etie 
ADDS A NEW COLOR TO 
THE SCABIOSAS 
1158. SCABIOSA GRANDIFLORA ROSETTE. 
H. A. This is the result of many years selection and 
painstaking care by plant breeders. Rosette is a 
beautiful shade of deep rose heavily suffused with 
salmon. The flowers are extra large’ and the stems 
are long and stiff. It will prove a most popular 
flower for the garden and also for the florist for cut¬ 
ting. The glowing new color will undoubtedly make 
Rosette a leader among the Scabiosa. Pkt., 'l5c; 2 
pkts., 25c; 1/4 oz., 70c; 1/2 oz., $1.25; oz., $2.40. 
839. ANTIRRINUM ROSALIE. H. A. We offer 
here a brand new color in Antirrinums. It is a rich 
deep rose with an underlying tone of to])az or amber, 
giving it a richness which makes it stand out conspic¬ 
uously among all other colors. As the tube and lips 
are the same color, the depth and richness of the 
flower is intensified. Flowers are base branching ])ro- 
ducing from six to eight long flowering spikes on 
which the florets are decidedly well arranged. This 
all ])urpose Snapdragon should be in 
every garden. Bronze medal award 
in All-America trials this year. Pkt., 
20 c; 2 pkts., 35c; Vs oz.,’$2.50; 1/4 
oz., $4.50; 1/2 oz., $8.50; oz., $16.00. 
NEW ADD GAYNESS TO GARDENS 
1087. PETUNIA MINIATURE RUFFLED BETSY ROSS. H. A. Not since the introduc¬ 
tion of Petunia ^lartha \\'ashington has a new color combination been found in this tyjie of 
Petunia. The color of Betsy Ross is red and white, the white blending to golden ancl tlie red 
blending to very deep red in the throat. The blooms are actually 21/2 inches in diameter, 
well ruffled with good open throat. The color combination of these flowers gives the indi¬ 
vidual plant as well as the row of plants a decidedly gay effect. This variety is excellent 
for bedding as well as for front row borders. We predict that it will prove a'very popular- 
pot plant. The i)lants are uniformly of a very dwarf growth with the foliage completely cov¬ 
ered with ruffled blooms. You will want some of these in your garden. Pkt., 25c; 2 pkts., 
40c; 1/32 oz., $4.25; 1/16 oz., $8.25; Vs oz., $16.00; 1/4 oz., $30.00.
