, Burpee’s COSMOS 
Beautiful summer and fall blooming plants; decora- 
tive in the garden and wonderful for cutting, lasting 
longer if flowers are placed in water immediately after 
being cut. Do well anywhere but succeed best in a well- 
drained soil and a sunny, sheltered location. Stake tall 
growing varieties to protect them from high winds.

earliness, plant habit and ease of culture. The color, however, is 
different —bright yellow with faint darker golden shadings. Plants 
are of strong, open bushy growth, floriferous, 3 ft. and more tall.
