California Dictend Japa: Daisies 
(GERBERA HYBRIDS) 
By years of careful selection in our nursery, we have developed 
a Strain of giant single-flowered Gerberas unexcelled in rich color 
range, length of stems, grace, beauty and size of flowers. 

The set of new Double Transvaal Daisies that we offer is a 
great advancement over previous double strains. They are excep- 
tionally long lasting as cutflowers. 
CALIFORNIA FLOWERLAND 
NEW DOUBLE 
GERBERAS 
A splendid new strain of these 
lovely flowers, the result of much 
painstaking selection. The petal for- 
mation is artistic, graduating from 
long slender outer petals to shorter 
ones in the center, forming a double 
flower of lovely proportion, on long 
strong stems. 
Plants are nearly everblooming, 
having been in flower at least ten 
months, in California. Propagation of 
the Double Gerberas, which do not 
produce seed, is by clump division 
only. 
FOUR COLOR SELECTIONS: 
DIABLO. Glowing red. 
MARQUITA. Golden Yellow Shades. 
LA GOLONDRINA. Rich orange. 
LA PALOMA. Salmon Rose. 
Strong blooming size plants, each 75c; 
10 for $6.75 
Transvaal Daisies are ideal 
for cutting, being long 
stemmed and very lasting. 
Their cultural requirements are 
simple: plant them in full sun- 
shine; soil should be well 
drained and should not be al- 
lowed to cover the crown, or 
center of plants. Irrigate thor- 
oughly, and do not water again 
until soil is fairly dry. Avoid 
sprinkling and too frequent 
watering. Protect the plants in 
winter where freezing weather 
prevails. 
PAUL J. HOWARD’S SINGLE HYBRID GERBERAS 
We have developed, by years of careful selection of the most 
desirable types and colors, a strain of these marvellous flowers 
which we sincerely believe is beyond compare. While the size of 
the flower has been increased immensely, all the grace of form 
of the single flower has been retained. The petals are very long, 
narrow and graceful, surrounding the center disc which is very 
small in proportion to the size of the flower. The color range 
includes the most pleasing rich hues of crimson, deep rose, scarlet 
and orange, as well as delicate pastel shades, cream, yellow, pink,

salmon, and white. The colors of the disc are also distinct in this 
strain, some being of the same hue as the petals, others of con- 
trasting shade.
