DeJong Floral and Seed Co dejongfloralseed1928dejo Year: 1928 Cosmos Cosmos are unquestionably very handsome flowering plants, and have become general favor- ites. There has been one objection to their late flowering habit, but this has been overcome in this new strain of Early Flowering Cosmos. Seed sown in our garden the beginning of May com- menced to show a few flowers in July, and dur- ing August and September were covered with flowers. The plants are dwarfer than the late flowering Cosmos, forming bushes from 4 to 5 feet high. The plants have fine feathery, light green foliage, flowers are produced on long stems, and are very handsome for cut flowers and bou- quets, as they will last a week after cutting. The colors are white, crimson and pink. EARLY FLOWERING, mixed. Per pkt. 5 cts. Eseholtzia (California Poppy) Very attractive plants for beds, edgings or masses; profuse flowering and fine cut foliage, in bloom from June till frost; 1 foot. Hardy annu- als. FINE MIXED. Flowers yellow, orange and white: blossoms 2 inches in diameter. Per pkt. 5 cts. Double Daisy Daisy (Bellis Perennis) Daisies are easily raised from spring-grown seed, and come into flower in a very short time. Among the most charming spring flowers they are indispensable for cool, shady places. Seed sown in August will make strong plants to carry over the winter with protection and blooms very early in spring. Although saved only from the fine double flowers, the seed produces a few single and semi-doubles. Half hardy perennials. FINE DOUBLE MIXED; 6 in. Per pkt. 5 cts. SNOWBALL. Large double white. Per pkt. 6 cts.
