R. & J. FARQUHAR 6- CO.'S SEED CA1AL0GUE.
NASTURTIUMS.
Our Nasturtiums are famous throughout the country for their size, variety of colors and)
their brilliancy. Our mixtures of the Tall and Dwarf forms are carefully proportioned in
their colors from stock specially grown for us in Kent, England, together with some of
the more recent and improved productions of France and Germany.
TOM THUMB OR DWARF. These hardy annuals are
of easiest cultivation succeeding best in rather light soil,
withstanding heat and drought and flowering profusely
from June or July until cut down by severe frost usually
well into November.
The dark leaved varieties are particularly adapted for ribbon
beds and borders, the brilliant flowers contrasting admirably
with the bronzy red foliage. Height one foot.

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. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
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.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
