BALL HYBRIDS 
“BALL YELLOW HYBRID No. 1 
We believe this is the finest golden yellow Snap available. 
You'll like it for its long, strong stems, outstanding deep gold 
color, and heavy production. 1% tr. pkt., $1.75; tr. pkt., $3.00. 
“BALL RED HYBRID No. 7 
Has the same rich scarlet-crimson color of the old Velvet 
Supreme, but with vastly superior flower spike and stem 
length. Fine for either Christmas or spring flowering. 1% tr. pkt., 
$1.75; tr. pkt., $3.00. 

“BALL PINK HYBRID No. 2 (New) 
This free flowering, medium pink was distributed experi- 
mentally last season as No. 15. So favorable were reports that 
we are offering it this winter, 
subject to the outcome of a 
special late fall seed crop, yield of which could not be deter- 
mined when this catalog went to press. Because of its wanted 
color and heavy production, we believe this new Hybrid has a 
great future. 1% tr. pkt., $1.75; tr. pkt., $3.00. 
Outdoor S. uapdragous 
(175,000 seeds per oz. 
An early February sowing of the longer stemmed varieties will pro- 
duce a good crop of cut flowers early summer outdoors—and don’t 
overlook the Nanum class for bedding; Gloria is an especially 
choice variety.

2 FINE SUMMER SNAPS 
TETRAPLOID. *Giant Ruffled “Tetra.” This race of Snap- 
dragons has larger cells with double the ordinary number 
of chromosomes. Because of these larger cells the spikes 
are more full with larger, thicker ruffled florets, more 
durable foliage and heavier stems. All colors are represented 
mn this well balanced mixture. Tr. pkt., 50¢; 146 0z., 90c; 
1% oz., $1.60; 14 oz., $2.90. 
MAXIMUM. 
*Velvet Giant. The rich, velvety crimson-red 
flowers of this variety are much larger than other outdoor 
Snaps, and the spikes are heavier. With some support to 
keep stems straight, this is a very satisfactory cut flower. 
The strain we offer is quite uniform and true to type.
