Michell’s Distinctive’ Stocks 
The Stock is one of the most popular and 
highly prized of our cultivated flowers be- 
cause of its charming colors, delightful fra- 
grance, and free-blooming character. Our 
seed is hand-saved from pot-grown specimens 
and will produce a large percentage of double 
flowers. The Early Giant Imperial and Early- 
flowering “‘Nice’’ Stocks must be started early 
indoors 1f wanted for outdoor blooming. 
NEW GIANTS OF CALIFORNIA 
This magnificent new group Is so marked in 
Improvement that we believe they will head 
the list m forcing Stocks in the very near 
future. Giants of California are very earl 
flowering with-a high percentage of ea 
double flowers, and having the branching 
habit of the Bismarck. If planted close, they 
will nearly attain the height of the Column 
Stock, approximately 24% to 3 feet.
