SCATTER GARDEN MIXTURE > 
We wish we had sufficient space to 
include some of the many testimonials 
we have received in praise of this fine 
mixture. They come from all sections of 
the country, indicating that the mixture 
thrives and blooms in many different 
climates. It is a blend of bright showy 
annuals, dwarf, medium and tall, giving 
a grand display in large areas where it 
would be difficult to intensely cultivate 
a garden. Left to themselves the vigor- 
ous, hardy annuals in this mixture will 
self-sow and probably become more or 
less- permanent. :
