THE BIG TOP WINNER! 











( 
an 
TITHONIA 
LORCH 
ALL-AMERICA) SELECTIONS 
1951 
Torch is good: it is the top winner in All 
America selections for 1951 — the most im- 
portant, most publicized flower seed novelty 
of the year. 
. And Torch is easy: it grows as easily as a 
* Zinnia—thrives on hot weather. It's orange- 
red, and red is the American public's favor- 
ite color. It’s a cutflower that blooms from 
August until frost. But best of all, it’s only 
waist high—compact enough for any garden. 
Please Note: Torchis not the old-fashioned 
tall, late Tithonia that you may have seen. 
It is the result of scientific plant breeding — 
bred to be early enough for the North; dwarf 
enough for the South. All America Selections 
testify it performs as advertised everywhere 
in the U. S. 
Torch will be widely talked-about next 
Spring. The public is going to like an easy 
and disease-free annual — something that 
thrives on Summer heat. Be sure you have it.
