New Extra Choice Double Portulaca 
DOUBLE PORTULACA 
3875—Extra Choice Double Mixed. This ‘old fashioned” flower, with larger flowers and 
softer colors, brightened a lot of bare spots around new homes this summer and we were im- 
pressed with how well it thrived on sun baked poor soil. Makes a nice trailing annual to cover 
bare spots in a hurry. “Grows like mad” as soon as the weather gets hot.

DAHLIAS FROM SEED 
2606—Unwin Dwarf Hybrids. We are amazed 
at the number of people who don’t know that 
some dahlias can be grown from seed. For 
early bloom start the seed indoors. The plants 
grow 2 feet high with a spread of 18 inches, 
double and semi-double blooms, are 4 to 6 
inches across in shades of pinks, rose, yellow, 
orange, scarlet and crimson. 
Pkt. 25¢; Lg. Pkt. 50¢; 4 Oz. $1.25. 
For Unwin Dahlia plants, see inside back cover. 
other reason, Stocks should be 
grown for their fragrance. We call 
ours “Sure to Bloom”’’ because they 
will if given poor soil and plenty of 
sunlight. Colors in this mixture are 
white, pink, red, azure, dark blue, 
yellow and rose. They make one of 
the neatest and most colorful 
borders of all annual flowers. ~

New Powderpuff Asters 
POWDERPUFFS 
1150—Bouquet, Mixed Colors. We lost our 
hearts to this new aster when it came into 
bloom in our test gardens this summer. Every- 
one who saw it there was equally impressed. 
Unlike other asters, the plants are perfectly 
upright so they spread less than 12 inches in 
width. The stems branch from the base so 
that the whole plant may be cut, as a huge 
bouquet or individual 15 to 18 inch stems. 
Colors are white, rose pink, coppery-rose, 
scarlet, lavender and tones of these colors. 
You'll be “first with the best” if you plant 
Powderpuff.
