DIMORPHOTHECA DOUBLE HYBRIDS M!XED 
(African Daisy) AF 
Unlike the ordinary Aurantiaca strains which have a com- 
paratively short f.owering per.od, our new Double Hybrids 
will stay in bloom twice as long—in fact they show color in 
our Trial Ground from the time they are a few inches high 
until we disk them under in ihe late Fail. We would class 
this double daisy as a half-hardy annual: and it is definitely a 
flower to withstand hot summer weather, as the species is a 
native of Africa. Each plant is a mass of fiowers throughout 
the summer and ali come in bloom quite early. A few of them 
scattered in a bed will add color to any garden. This new 
strain produces approximately 65% double crested plants, 
with an addtional percentage of semi-doubles. Fhk.. 25¢e.
