believably large, five to seven inches in diameter, with shallow open throats

1008. INDIAN SPRING. 
H. A. Several years ago 
Holland sent us the new an- 
nual Hollyhock that will 
bloom in sixteen weeks 
from seed. We recommend 
sowing the seed in flats, 
transplanting in six weeks 
to the open ground, where 
it will flower in about ten 
weeks. Individual flowers 
measure about five inches 
in diameter. The semi-dou- 
ble flowers range in color 
from a pale pink to crim- 
son, Height, four to six 
feet. A most attractive an- 
nual and should prove very 
popular in our American 
gardens. Pkt., 15c; 2 pkts., 
25c. 

Antirrhinum, Rosalie 
(Rust-Resistant ) 
Antinrhinum 
839. ROSALIE. H. A. A showy 
color in Antirrhinums. It is a rich 
deep rose with an underlying tone 
of topaz or amber, giving it a rich- 
ness which makes it stand out con- 
spicuously among all other colors. 
As the tube and lips are the same 
color, the depth and richness of the 
flower are intensified. Flowers are 
base branching, producing from six 
to eight long flowering spikes on 
which the florets are decidedly well 
arranged. This all-purpose snap- . : 
dragon should be in every garden, ™ Sara ne

0 Vy 1049. SCARLETT O’HARA. H. A. Flowers average about four 
CMUNG ony inches in diameter of a dark wine-red or deep rosy-crimson. 
They start blooming within 65 days after seed is sown. 
Flowers are a lovely blaze of color during the morning, and until well in the afternoon, remaining 
open practically all day on cloudy or dull days. As is true of all Morning Glories, Scarlett 
O’Hara should be planted on rather poor soil. Pkt., 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; 1/2 oz., 75c.

C4904 Medal, the highest award in the 1948 All America

oped. Striking deep rose and rich crimson. Similar in plant growth 
to the Sensation type, although its pa ts were imported from India 
some 12 years ago. Blos- 
soms are richer, more erect, 
and have longer stems than 
the other types. Will keep 
well when cut in the bud. A
