TITHONIA 
3480—Speciosa Mexican Sunflower—The flowers are 
large and remind one of an immense single Zinnia; 
color, dazzling orange-scarlet. It forms a large shrubby 
plant, flowers for a long period and is especially de¬ 
sirable for planting among shrubs. Pkt. 15c. 
TORENIA

ally covered with the lovely, richly-colored snapdragon¬

across, with a black-purple

VERBENAS 
Verbenas are free flowering annuals of low spread¬ 
ing growth. If the flowers are kept cut, the plants will 
bloom much more freely. Plants grown from seed are 
not only cheaper than those grown from cuttings, but 
are more vigorous. 
Mammoth Strain—This is without doubt the finest 
strain in existence. 
3520—Blue Shades. 
3524—Helen Willmott—Salmon-rose, white eye.

ROYAL BOUQUET 
MIXED

type is excellent for cutting. 
The plants are definitely up¬ 
right in habit, several 10 to 
12-inch stalks to a plant, 
each bearing full clusters of 
the large starry eyed flowers 
at the tip. The colors com¬ 
prise a full range of the 
brighter shades. Pkt. 10c. 
VERBENA

3552—VERBENA HYBRIDA COMPACTA 
TYPE (Edging Verbenas) 
These are distinct from all other types of Verbena, 
very compact, dwarf, and free flowering. The color 
range is very wide, in bright shades. They are excel¬ 
lent for the annual rock garden. Mixed, pkt. 10c. 
*VIOLA CORNUTA 
(Tufted Pansy) 
There are few bedding plants so dependable, color¬ 
ful and persistent in blooming over a long period as 
the tufted pansy. While the individual flowers are 
smaller than the regular pansy, they are produced 
in such profusion that the beds are a sheet of bloom 
through the entire season.' 
3560—Apricot—A beautiful rich apricot shade, 
tinted orange toward the center. Pkt. 25c. 
3564—Arkwright Ruby—Bright ruby crimson shaded

3584— White Perfection—Large pure white. Pkt. 15c 
3585— Cornuta, Mixed Colors—Colorful blend of the 
above and others. Pkt. 15c. 
3587— 1 ‘VIOLET (Viola Odorata) 
(Sweet Violet) 
No garden is complete without a nice bed of violets. 
They bloom ahead of other flowers, and their fragrance 
is delightful. They will thrive in shady places and 
therefore can be planted where other plants will not do 
well. A violet bed around the foot of a big shade tree 
is very attractive. Provide good rich soil and after you 
once get a bed established you can get any number of 
plants by dividing the roots. Hardy perennial. Pkt. 10c 
VIRGINIAN STOCK 
French Forget-me-nots are fast growing. They are 
in flower with such early blossoming varieties as alys- 
sum, pansies, violas, and linarias. As they come before 
the nemesias, they could very well be used in the space 
to be filled later on by them. 
3590—Mixed Colors—Pkt. 10c.
