Novelties and Specialties in Flower Seeds 
AGERATUM, MIDGET BLUE 
There is a real satisfaction in being able to offer a very 
fine dwarf (2 to 3 inches high) Ageratum, with delicate fine 
foliage, which is practically smothered with small. true 
Ageratum blue flowers. This is really the first dwarf Agera- 
tum we have found that will come uniformly dwarf and true 
to color from seed. Packet 50c. 
ALYSSUM MARITIMUM NANUM, 
VIOLET QUEEN 
The white-flowering Sweet Alyssum has long been an in- 
dispensable garden favorite, more especially the dwarf, com- 
pact forms, which are of such charming effect as edgings 
in the make-up of summer borders. From the original white 
form some colored varieties have been developed, but none 
of a very decided shade. The flowers of our new variety, 
however, have a character peculiarly their own, being of a 
very pretty 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 varieties.
