NOVELTIES and SPECIALTIES for 1942 (Cont'd) 
MARIGOLD DWARF FRENCH DOUBLE HARMONY TYPE “BUTTER- 
BALL” (Bronze Medal A. A. S. 1941.) Butterball is an exquisite 
little jewel which bears dozens of flowers of a lovely soft butter 
yellow shade. Much more dwarf and compact in habit than the 
original Harmony, Butterball might be classed a super dwarf 
strain in this fine group. Plants are 6-8 in. in height and liter- 
ally covered with their 2 in. blooms of the characteristic Harmony 
formation—crested centers composed of dozens of dainty tubular 
petals, each carrying a touch of maroon at the tip. Remarkably 
early blooming, Butterball produces a blanket of color for the 
border or garden bed during the many weeks of summer.

hottest climate. Purple Robe bids fair to become one of the most widely used and universally

PETUNIA “SNOW WHITE.” Compact plants covered with dozens of pure white flowers, would 
really be an unimaginative description of Snow White. Its habit is very dwarf and each plant 
is a mass of large yellow throated paper white flowers.
