Nasturtiums 
Dwarf Compact Bushes—Long Stems 
The Double Sweet-Scented Globe-Type Nasturtiums

The plants are of dwarf, compact bush or globular 
form, about 1 ft. high, totally without runners, and 
hold their compact form throughout the season. The 
large double and semi-double flowers are produced in 
great profusion, and their long stems, wonderful fra- 
grance and beauty, combined with their long keeping 
qualities, make them ideal for bouquets. They thrive 
under almost any cultural conditions, and the dwarf, 
rounded plants are most attractive for beds, borders, 
rock gardens and pot culture. We can supply the 
following varieties in the double globe-type.

Double Gleam-Type _ : 
Nasturtiums 
Semi-Dwarf Bushes 
: 














: The Gleam-Type Nasturtiums are semi-dwarf, form- 
Ing vigorous, large bushes, and when fully developed 
send out short runners about 18 inches in length. The 
flowers are large, double, and semi-double, sweet- — 
scented, and are borne on long, erect, stiff stems 
which stand well above the foliage, producing a blaze 
of glory. The neat compact habit and early appear- 
ance of flowers make it most valuable for flower beds 
and an excellent pot plant. The short runners, which 
also bear numerous flowers, add to the usefulness of 
the plant for window boxes, or the runners can be 
pinched back as soon as they appear, and a round 
mass of flowers will be the result. In the garden or 
for cutting no flower could be more lovely. We can 
supply the following varieties in the Gleam-Type. 
GOLDEN GLEAM. Neatly formed plants, covered 
with a mass of large, sweet-scented golden yellow, —
