FOR SPRING PLANT SALES 
180,000 seeds per oz. If you want bedding Snaps that are in full 
bloom a week or ten days earlier, that branch and bloom more 
freely and are more uniform in color and habit—try the “Hit 
Parade” Hybrids. They’re extra nice for cutting, too! The dwarf 
(Nanum Grandiflorum) type is bushy, with no tendency to sprawl, 
if not supported. The taller varieties should be supported, if 
straight stems are wanted.

petals and foliage than the ordinary kind. Under good growing 
conditions really outstanding spikes can be developed. 
Crimson. (New.) Bright crimson-red. 
Pink. Salmon-pink. Medium tall; huge florets.
