The African varieties produce large self-colored

feature in the garden. 
There is hardly an annual which will last longer as a cut flower.

fusely on dwarf plants 10 inches in height 
and with a spread of 18 inches. Begins to 
bloom in 10 weeks from seed and continues

be suitable for cutting. 
Spry Per packet 40c 
All-America Silver Medal. The little bushes are 
only 9 inches high. Placed around a bed of 
Petunias, Antirrhinums, or Geraniums they 
make an ideal edging. All summer, and right 
into autumn frost, they are covered with dou- 
ble flowers, each having a crested center of 
light yellow, surrounded by flat outer florets 
of maroon. More and brighter flowers is the 
improvement in this kind.

eight inches high. The plant is a mass of 
lemon-yellow miniature double blooms less 
than one inch across. Perfect to border a
