Cynthia. Not so robust a grower as the 
others, but a dark red that leads some 
folks to call it the black red. Resents mov- 
ing so plant where it can be undisturbed 
for several years. Our customers place it 
first in reds. One year, $2.50. 
Helen. From an eastern originator comes 
this excellent medium pink. In between 
Caroline and Paragon in color and a fine 
performer, $1.00 and $1.25. 
Paragon. Same large size as Caroline, 
even finer center petals and a deep pink 
color. Same habit of double flowers to late 
in the season. Divisions, $2.00. 
Priscilla. Offered for sale for the first 
time in 1952, this new one has been pro- 
nounced the very best white yet pro- 
duced. It is glistening white. A double 
row of perianth petals stand straight out 
and surround a dome of the finest cut 
center petals we have ever seen. Some- 
times the stems come branched, each 
carrying a somewhat smaller flower than 
the one on center stem. Only a few plants 
for sale this year at $5.00 each. 
Snowball. Properly named. Tightly 
packed center petals in an almost per- 
fectly round ball of snow whiteness. A 
fine cutting variety. In fact all Pyre- 
thrums are good cutters and last a long 
time in vases of water in the house. Snow- 
ball plants 50c and 60c. 
Mavericks. Unnamed singles and semi- 
doubles in shades of white, pink and red. 
Run of field but no two duplicates. If 
you like singles, these should please you. 
Just write “Maverick Pyrethrums,” send 
us $1.50 and we will send at least five 
plants. 
We have a large number of varieties 
not listed here—stocks are not yet large 
enough. Come to the nursery in early 
June and see them. 
Bugs? 
Scientists are wondering if at some 
time in the future, bugs will run humans 
off the earth. Lots of gardeners are think- 
ing the same way. We all have bugs to 
fight and one of the surest ways of win- 
ning the battle is to call in Carco X. It is 
sure death to most kinds from the under- 
ground wireworm to aphids. It is water 
soluble and a quart will make from 25 to 
90 gallons of spray material. It is a good 
fungicide. Full directions with every bot- . 
tle and be sure to follow them. NON.- 
POISONOUS. 
Prices postpaid: % pt. $1.20; pint, S175;
