DICENTRA SPECTABILIS 

DOUBLE PYRETHRUM 
PYRETHRUM (Py-ree’-thrum) —Painted Daisy 
Pyrethrums have been called the spring blooming Chrys- 
anthemum and we think that the newer sorts are a very 
close rival of that popular flower. As a cut flower for 
Memorial Day they certainly have no superior. If not 
allowed to seed there will be scattered blooms all sum- 
mer, although these as well as the first flowers after 
transplanting, are apt to be single. All are propagated 
vegetatively and are guaranteed true to name. 
Brilliant—A very brilliant red, fully double. 50c each 
Buckeye—Deep rose, very double. 50c each 
Excelsior—Tall grower, large deep rose. 50c each 
Florence Shadley—Very fine double rich pink. 50c each 
Glory of the Midnight Sun—Very double deep Bengal rose 
with lighter center. 50c each 
Martinique—Very tall light lavender pink. 50c each 
Marvel—Delicate hydrangea pink. A double quilled sort. 50¢ 
Miami Queen—Light delicate pink of large size. 50c each 
Mignon—Small very double rose-pink pompon. Exquisite. 
50c each 
Pink Bouquet—Altogether a choice plant for the garden 
and superb for cutting is this new introduction. A single 
30-inch stem will form as many as 8 flowers, a bouquet 
in itself. Deep rose with center of pink star-like petals. 
60c each 
Queen Mary—Very large semi-double silvery pink. 50c¢ each 
Saturn—Very large rose red, comet flowered. 50c each 
The Pearl—Purest white pompon. 50c each 
Extract from December 1937 Flower Grower: “...and 
do not overlook The Pearl, a lovely pure white pompon. 
It will do things to your cut flower arrangements.’—C. 
W. Wood (Mich.) 
Trojan—Very fine dark pink. Not quite as double as some 
but very lovely. 50c each 
Victory—Glorious pure snow white double. 50c each 
Any 5 for $2.25; all 15 for $6.50.
