COSMOS SENSATION “DAZZLER” 
(Honorable Mention) 
In spite of some variation, ‘Dazzler’ was one of the most outstanding 
varieties in our flowering trials this past summer. A rich deep velvety 
crimson maroon, it is a worthy companion of the Sensations Purity and 
Pinkie. The flowers are immense—four or more inches in diameter with 
broad heavy fluted petals which slightly overlap, giving a very full 
single flower, ideal for cutting. Long heavy stems on plants three to four 
feet high.

ZINNIA PUMILA “SUNSHINE TINTS” 
Pastels are among the most popular flower colors at the present time. 
Combined in the ‘Sunshine Tints’’ are many Autumn shades of bronze, 
golden-yellow, apricot and rich rose, as well as the better known delicate 
pinks, creamy yellows, soft flesh tones and salmons of most popular 
pastel Mixtures. Free flowering, the blooms are two and a half to three 
inches in diameter rounded in shape, symmetrically formed and carried 
on stems of good cutting length. 
ZINNIA LILLIPUT “DAINTY GEM” 
Free flowering and colorful ‘Dainty Gem” plants are one and a half to 
two feet, bushy specimen with wiry stems just the right length for bou- 
quets. The neat compact round blooms, one and a half inches in diameter, 
are bright rose-pink at center and lighter flesh-pink on the lower or out- 
side petals. Excellent in our flowering trials. 
SWEET PEA “SHRIMP-PINK” 
LATE OR SUMMER FLOWERING 
This was one of the most outstanding sweet peas observed in California 
seed-fields this past summer. Trials in the East and Mid-West have shown 
its general adaptability. A heavy producer, the attractive Shrimp-pink 
flowers are produced on good stems. Why not try a sowing of ‘’Shrimp- 
Pink” in your cloth house this summer?

PETUNIA Ne Set aancd Eas “IGLOO” 
The prolific blooming habit of ‘‘Igloo’"—undoubtedly one of the most im- 
portant reasons the All-America judges saw fit to award it a Bronze 
Medal—with almost enough points for a Silver Medal. The plants are 
most uniform and compact, 12-15 inches tall. One and a half inch small 
creamy white, single flowers with yellowish throats in sheets of bloom. 
True and excellent for bed or border, early to late.

POPPY NUDICAULE GARTFORD GIANTS 
“ART SHADES” 
Another product of our trip to the seed-fields this past summer this 
Iceland Poppy Mixture is outstanding with exceptionally fine large 
flowers beautifully fluted and soft textured, carried on extremely long 
heavy wiry stems up to thirty inches in length under good growing con- 
ditions. The flowers are produced in quantity in a color range including 
lovely pastel shades of apricot, cream, gold, biscuit, pink, white and 
various shades of rose. Very fine for cut flower arrangements if stems 
are burned or dipped in hot water. 
CELOSIA CRISTATA “GILBERT'S MAPLE GOLD” 
This is the loveliest of all cristata or coxcomb creations. It starts forming 
round maple-pink heads when quite small, and grows increasingly beau- 
tiful; each ruffled segment tipped with brilliant gold, lasting until killed 
by frost. Whenever this was flowered the past summer, it brought favor-

CLEOME “PINK QUEEN” 
This beautiful Spider Plant grows recklessly from Maine to Florida and 
west to the Pacific. It is never out of bloom. A tall and attractive border 
plant, free from insects and disease, with huge heads of delightful and 
refreshing pink, without a trace of blue or magenta. The large flower 
bracts turn to white before falling, giving an appearance of a white 
collar with a pink cap. Reaches over 4 feet, well branched, airy foliage, 
blooming from June until frost. A grand flower.
