SALPIGLOSSIS—Giant Flowered Type 
This new Dwarf strain of Salpiglossis grows two feet high, 
has flowers that measure from two to three inches across, 
has a brighter color range and is very attractive because of 
the uniform height when in bloom. The uniform height is 
about one foot: less than the ordinary variety. This gives the 
flowers a much larger appearance. They are all strong grow- = oe - 
ers and produce thick, bushy, symmetrical plants. We pre- Ke a a Ee MM cl 
dict a great future for this dwarf type of Salpiglossis.
