GILIA FAIRY STARS 
Jewel Flower (a) 
A California wild flower admirably adapted 
to borders and rock gardens. Tiny star-like 
flowers so abundant they make a solid mass 
of bright autumn colors. Sow broadcast Sep- 
tember to June. 5 inches. Pkt. 10c; 3 for 20c 
~GODETIA, Satin Flower 
Farewell-to-Spring (a) 
Kelvedon Glory. A dwarfed hybrid from the 
long-legged wild godetia. The plants are 
bushy, 12 inches to 18 inches high and 
covered with salmon-orange flowers of 
poppy shape. Blooms more freely in thin 
soil and bright sunshine. A fine cut flower. 
Grows best in cool climates. Start in flats 
late fall or early spring. In mild climate 
plant out of doors in late fall or early 
spring Pkt. 15c

HELIANTHEMUM, Sun Rose (p) 
A most delightful dwarf evergreen peren- 
nial. Spreading, dense matty growth can 
always stand pruning. Covered with bright- 
ly colored flowers resembling miniature 
single roses. Yellow, bronze, red, pink, rose, 
apricot, orange and similar shades. Has at- 
tracted constant attention in our garden. 
‘Fine for steep terraces, dry rock walls or any 
reasonably sunny place in the garden. Many 
of these seeds come from Sydney B. Mit- 
chell’s new seedlings. Grows 3 inches to 5 
inches high. Best started in flats in late fall 
or early spring Pkt. 25c 
ICELAND POPPIES 
Papaver Nudicaule (a) 
Often grown as a biennial. Compact plants 
with fern-like foliage, graceful wiry stems, 
flowers often 4 inches across. Blooms freely 
in early summer and more or less all year. 
Better where it gets frozen in all winter. 
Disappointing in rock gardens. Sow the seed 
where it is to bloom. August to November; 
January to March. If started in flats, trans- 
plant when very small. 15 to 36 inches. 
Gartford Giants, Mixed. A new strain. The 
flowers are the largest and the stems the 
longest Pkt. 25c

Giant Imperial Strain. This strain is tall, 
basal branching and upright, needing

should be chilled before sowing in either 
fall or spring, as it is slow to germinate. 
4 to 5 feet. Plants should be dusted with 
sulphur when 10 inches high and again 
when 3 feet high.
