Illustrated in Natural Color on Front Cover 
These new Hybrids consist of many new and distinct 
types of Marigolds, varying in size of bloom from two 
tO' four inches in diameter. Some of these types have 
petals which are very quilled and incurved and which 
remind one of miniature American Beauty Asters in 
orange and yellow. The beautiful colors are most fasci¬ 
nating and can best be described as containing all 
shades of orange and yellow. The plants are about three 
feet high, supporting masses of flowers on fine stems 
for cutting. Pkt., 10c; 3 for 25c.

high with sparse foliage with stems of good length for cut¬ 
ting. Pkt., 10c; 3 for 25c.

rite. 
Cfa/ua&ti. 
Amateur and professional horticulturists 
are achieving amazing results in plant 
growth and survival through experimental 
treatment with pure crystalline Vitamin 
B-l. Vitamin B-l is not a fertilizer, nor is 
it any other form of plant food. Rather, it 
must be classified as a root reinvigorator 
which enables the plant to gain the great¬ 
est possible benefit from the soil in which 
it is planted. One bottle makes 2,000 gal¬ 
lons of solution. $1.00 per bottle, postpaid.

KOCHIA TRICHOPHYLLA)

MACHET. Dwarf and vigorous in growth

Annuals are those flowers that attain their 
full growth, bloom and die the first year. 
Among these are the Asters, Balsam, Cos¬ 
mos, Zinnias, Mignonettes, Sweet Peas, Nas¬ 
turtiums, Morning Glories and other brilliant 
and fragrant sorts. 
Biennials produced from seed generally 
flower the first and second year and then 
die, the life of the plant being two seasons. 
Perennials usually do not flower the first 
year, unless started early in the season. 
Perennials live and blossom year after year. 
These sorts constitute the "Hardy Flowers," 
such as Hollyhocks, Sweet William, etc.
