Novel Calendulas - Pot Marigolds 
PALE MOON. The lightest colored Calendula to date, and, there- 
fore, of supreme importance to the commercial florist. Light 
cream or primrose in color, the fully double 2-inch flowers are per- 
fect in shape, while the compact habit of the plant saves much 
greenhouse room. Ideal, also, for growing outdoors and a bed of 
Pale Moon will be striking in any garden. It is invaluable for cut 
bloom. Height, 8 inches. Pkt. 15 cts., 44oz. 50 cts., oz. $1.50. 
YELLOW COLOSSAL. The largest Calendula in cultivation, with 
flowers 414 inches across, double and clear, very light, bright 
yellow. Blooms are borne in large numbers on compact, 18-inch 
high plants. Pkt. 15 cts., oz. 50 cts., oz. $1.50. 
Calendulas are annuals of the simplest culture 
Bidens Riedelli. The single daisy-like flowers are 3 inches 
across and copper-red in color; they are on long, wiry stems, and are 
excellent for cutting. The plant grows 3 feet high and is effective 
as a border subject. Annual. Pkt. 25 cts., 5 pkts. $1. 

Calandrinia, Amaranth. For the driest, hottest place in 
your garden, or in the rockery, this ‘‘Rock-Purslane,’’ a compact 
little 3-inch plant, will give you a brilliant display from July to 
September. It will be a mass of crimson-purple blooms. Sow seeds 
in late winter indoors and plant out, or in the open ground in May, 
and thin to 6 inches apart. Annual. Pkt. 50 cts., 3 pkts. $1.25. 
Campanula, Wedgwood. (Hardy Bellflower). A fine 
development of C. persicifolia, with Jarger flowers of a richer, deep 
violet-blue that is ideal for the middle distance of your hardy border. 
Sow seeds this spring to bloom in June of next year, for it is a choice 
perennial that will do well in full sun or partial shade. Height, 34% 
to 4 feet. If sprays of buds are cut and put in water, they will open 
to charming flowers for room decoration. Pkt. 50 cts., 3 pkts. $1.25. 
Three Outstanding Celosias 
PLUMOSA SUPERBA. Great fluffy plumes in the most brilliant 
and varied colors. We offer a highly bred strain which is the result 
of 30 years’ careful selection. Height, 3 feet. Celosias are annuals 
that are easy to grow. 
ROYAL VELVET COCKSCOMB. This new crimson sort is re- 
markably free flowering. The old-time Cockscomb produced a 
center head; in Royal Velvet this center flower is larger and it is 
surrounded by many smaller clusters in basal branches. 2 feet. 
MIRACLE COCKSCOMB. Enormous size of the plushlike combs 
and odd colorings! We see brilliant shades of red, from dark crim- 
son to scarlet, then salmon, bronze, gold through purple to pink 
and white. 214 feet.

Choice Outdoor Carnations 
HARDY COTTAGE. Years of patient crossing and recrossing of 
the older herbaceous garden Carnations with modern types has 
produced a race of plants extremely hardy and so vigorous that 
no staking is necessary. The large, double, fragrant flowers, in all 
colors, bloom all summer. A creation of Allwood Bros. of Hay- 
ward’s Heath, England, famed specialists. Originators’ pkt. 50 cts. 
HARDY, FINEST MIXED. U. S. grown. An improved type, 
remarkable for the many flowers open at one time. They are 
1% inches across, cover the plant, are very double, and are of all 
colors. Pkt. 25 cts., Woz. $1, Woz. $1.50. 
These are perennials; sown early they will bloom the first year 
Centaurea, Lavender Beauty. A new Imperialis variety 
with enormous flowers of an unusual color. The fluffy blooms are 
light lavender and 3 to 34% inches across. Growing 11% to 2 feet high, 
the plant is an excellent border and cut-flower annual of the simplest 
culture. Thin or transplant to 1 foot between plants. Pkt. 15 cts., 
Yoz. 50 cts., oz. $1.50. 
Chrysanthemum, September Jewels. The earliest and 
hardiest garden Chrysanthemum, and a kind that may readily be 
grown from seed. If sown im early spring, flowers will be produced in 
September of the same year. The plants grow from 1 to 2 feet high, 
and until heavy frost they will be smothered with daisy-like flowers, 
2 to 3 inches across. The color-range is exceptionally fine—yellows, 
pinks, lilacs, bronzes, reds, and dozens of others. Charming in the 
garden, and ideal for cutting, September Jewels are rather simular to, 
but much larger and finer than, the Korean Chrysanthemum. Raiser’s
