Colors. Oz. 20c Pkt. 5c.

MATRICARIA (snowball)
This splendid variety of M. alba plenissima or "Double
White Feverfew" forms bushy annual garden plants, bearing
quantities of pure snow-white double flowers in dense clusters
almost covering the oval plants with bloom; height, 8 inches.
Very desirable for bedding and fine for cutting Pkt. 10c.
MIGNONETTE
Red Goliath. One of the finest, being of strong growth, healthy
and deep-rooting. . The average spikes of flowers are im-
mense, measuring 6 to 8 inches long by 21-2 inches in diam-
eter, and are compactly filled with giant florets, measuring
./2 inch across and packed full, even in the center, with an-
thers, or three times as many as the older Mignonettes con-
tain, consequently this variety is correctly called a double
Mignonette. The color of the florets — 'fire-red — is strength-
ened on account of the density of the florets and spikes, thus
presenting almost solid columns of brilliant red, effectively
contrasted against the healthy, rich green foliage. The fra-
grance is delightfully rich and powerful. For cutting it is
perfection, remaining fresh for 8 to 10 days in water. Per
1.000 seeds, 50c; Per J4 Oz. $1.00 Pkt. 10c.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
