TITHONIA 
TORCH 
The Top All America winner for 1951, extensively publicized 
as a brand-new summer annual. Easy as a Zinnia to grow, and very 
early, it will yield brilliant orange-scarlet cutflowers all summer 
until frost. The flowers resemble single dahlias with bright gold 
centers; plants are compact, waist-high, with soft green foliage. 
Performs best if planted in full sun; watered sparingly and fertilized 
very little, if at all. 
2800 seeds/oz. Special packets available. We have photos, 
electros and an assortment of color plates of which that at left 
(#3047G) is only one.

licized and praised in 1951. 
700 seeds/oz. Special packet available from Schmidt. We have 
photos and color plates in many sizes, of which this (#3059G) 
zs only one.

PETUNIA 
RAMONA STRAIN SUPERDWARFS 
A controlled blend of dark shades, orchid shades, and bicolors in 
proper proportion to most professional market requirements. If you 
have special requirements, we can do a limited amount of custom 
blending to specification. Plant habit is extremely dwarf—more so 
than the regular Ramona Strain. Flowers are of giant size, excellent 
substance, ruffled, but not fringed. PLEASE NOTE: SUPERDWARFS 
CONTAINS A VERY LOW PERCENTAGE OF THE INEVITABLE SMALL- 
FLOWERED TYPES, RESULTING IN VERY FEW ‘‘CULLS’’ WHEN FINISH- 
ING INTO POTS. 
160,000 seeds/oz. Photos and color plates (#3035G) available.
