NOVELTY FLOWER SEEDS 
THE FOLLOWING ITEMS are recent additions to our extensive line of specialty seeds, in a few cases 
new this year. These new items are so noted and these are not all available for immediate delivery 
but will be as quickly as new crop - fresh seeds come in. They will be available for normal seasonal 
planting and where ordered along with your regular order, if not yet in will be sent separately as 
quickly as possible. In many cases special cultural bulletins will be supplied with the seeds. We 
feel that you will find much of interest that will add variety to your gardening hobby in this list. 
Early ordering is to be advised on these items as supplies will be limited and we have no idea what 
the demand may be so orders will be shipped in sequence while supply lasts. 
CONNOISSEUR'S BLEND 
Novelty Begonias 
A most unusual offering in Begonia Seeds is made in this 
specially blended mixture. As you know, seeds of many Bego- 
nias are hard to procure. We have blended here, the seeds of 
many varieties from many sources. These include Rex, tuber- 
hybrida, semperflorens, metallica and several other species and 
hybrids. A packet of these seeds should produce a hundred 
plants or more and will add much to the variety of any 
Begonia collection or make the foundation stock for starting 
one. New Crop seeds soon available. Culture supplied. 
SEEDS: Per packet $2.50; 3 packets for $6.00. 
Pex Begonia Seeds 
These seeds of Rex-cultorum are from a group of highly 
colored hybrids which should give you a variety of these decor- 
ative leaved Begonias that make most interesting house plants 
or for bedding. They are easily grown and adapt themselves 
well to rather common culture. The marbled and blotched 
leaves are their main attraction as the flowers don’t amount 
to much. Coming to us from a famous specialist grower, we know of no better strain to be available. 
Culture is no more difficult than with other plants having extremely fine seeds and a cultural leaflet will 
accompany each order. Shipment as soon as new crop seeds come in but order early as supply will 
likely be quite limited. 
SEEDS: Packet of about 200 seeds $2.00; 3 packets for $5.00.
