THE GIANT PETUNIAS 
Immense blossoms, mostly frilled or fringed. 
SUPER FLUFFY RUFFLES—tThe giant flowers are so ex- 
cessively ruffled and frilled that, although single, they ap- 
pear to be double. Blossoms run to five-inch diameters, 
plants well-branched, to 18 inches of height. Color range is 
full, but richest in the particularly desired salmon pink 
and rose shades, often with amber throats. No strain of 
Fluffy Ruffles seems to run 100% true. This one, and we 
believe there is no better, averages higher than 75% as 
described, and the others, though not extra-frilled, will be 
large and good. Pkt. 30c; 3 for 85c.

STAR OF THE ARGENTINE 
It is OXYPETALUM CAERULEUM, 
known too as Southern Star, or some- 
times as Tweedia. The blossoms are 
inch-wide stars carried in ever-extending 
many-flowered sprays, the stars up-fac- 
ing. The coloring looks as though it 
< had been painted on each petal, a most 
unusual blue of silver-veiled pastel 
quality. The plants grow to about fif- 
teen inches, the stems arching so that 
the constellations of blue blossoms look 
directly upward. Seeds sown in open 
ground in April produce plants that are 
in bloom before end of June, constant 
blossoming from then until middle of 
October. An easy garden flower, but 
it makes a _ good, long-blooming pot 
plant, too. We featured Oxypetalum in 
last year’s catalog for first time, and many of our cus- 
tomers have written to us about it. With the exception 
of one single adverse report, every letter so far received 
has been highly commendatory. These reports were all 
voluntary, quite unsolicited. It was simply that those who 
grew Oxypetalum were so well pleased with it that they 
felt like mentioning it. Jllustrated above. Pkt. 20c; + 
oz. 40c; 14 oz. T5e.
