(NOT ILLUSTRATED) 
A new type of Sweet Pea characterized by its ex- 
cellent heat resistance. Comes into bloom midway 
between Early and Late Spencers, and continues 
much longer, even in hot weather. Flowers are 
plainer than the Spencer type, but large and with 
ye HEDDENSIS 
BODGER 1948 
An entirely new tetraploid variety developed 
from a cross between D. Heddewigi and D. Chinen- 
sis. The first of the type was the 1946 All America 
winner, Westwood Beauty. Tetra Heddensis Mixed 
is the mixture of colors in the new type, and con- 
tains all the traditional Dianthus colors plus a new 
salmon shade. The new type combines the large, 
open flowers of Heddewigi with the rugged growth 
and long stems of Chinensis, and is more tolerant 
of extreme temperatures than either of the parent 
types. Flowers are 2” across, borne on 16” stems 
suitable for cutting. Much better than Heddewigi 
single for general use.

SELECTIONS 
1948 
The most interesting of all the recent introduc- 
tions in dwarf single French Marigolds, Red Head 
has large crested flowers 2” across with broad, 
overlapping petals. Petal color is mahogany when 
flowers first open, changing to auburn and later to 
bronze. The crested center is composed of small 
upright petals, gold edged with maroon. Plants are 
dwarf and compact, 14-16” high, spreading 
slightly wider and blooming very profusely. Blooms 
begin early and continue throughout the summer. 
An excellent type for low borders, and especially 
effective in large masses.
