SALVIA 
W4600 HARRIS’ BONFIRE. With florists, the 
name of Harris has become synonymous with 
superior quality and high germinating salvia 
seed. Ours is a strain of our own selection 
grown for us in the East by a salvia specialist. 
The spikes are large, long, and the florets 
placed very closely together. The growth is as 
uniform as though it had been sheared. The 
color is of a brighter shade than any other 
variety, and the germination higher.

14 Lb: $14.00.

able early flowering salvia so much in demand for spring 
pot and summer bedding plants. Leaves are a deep 
bluish green.

W4602 AMERICA (Globe of Fire). A little taller and 
later than Firebrand, America is still the standard with 
many growers. Our strain is especially uniform in height 
and earliness.

year are lovely. I’m selling plants of them. The 
white ones are very striking. I have never found a 
pled?! quite as good as yours for fertility of 
seeds.
