The Balconies 
Because of their extra vigorous habit and fairly large 
flowers, this class is used to advantage for bedding where 
conditions are trying. Their tall habit is not particularly 
objectionable because of their tendency to sprawl or lay 
over as growth progresses. Also, because of this tendency, 
the Balconies are much used in baskets or porch boxes.

habit. Comes practically 100% true to color. The finest

Prices on EACH above: Tr. pkt., 25c; % oz., 85c; 1 oz., $2.90. 
Regular or ‘Tall Hybridas 
This class is of vigorous growth and for this reason is 
best suited to outdoor bedding where summers are most 
trying. While they aren’t dwarf, the tendency of the 
growth to be blown over, leaves them with as much dwarf 
effect as is had with some of the varieties listed under the 
Dwarf Hybrida type. 
General Dodds. An amaranth or deep rose. Tr. pkt., 25c; “4 0z., 
40c; 1 oz., $1.50.
