"My Nasturtiums are a profusion of blossoms — and an expanse of
beauty, I am proud of them. Passers-by greatly admire the many
different colors — some declaring they are the most beautiful they have ever
seen — and asking their name and where I got the seed. I say, 'Henderson's
Giant-Flowering.'" EDGAR VAIL, Yorktown Heights, N. Y.
HENDERSON'S GIANT- FLOWERING
CLIMBING NASTURTIUMS
A new section obtained by a French specialist by hybridizing, and distin-
guished by flowers of a large size and a richness and variety of coloring not to
be found in Nasturtiums heretofore grown. There have already been pro-
duced twenty-two different colors or combinations of colors in these new
hybrids, including various shades of rose, salmon, bright red, pale yellow, etc.,
either self-colored or spotted, mottled, striped, and margined.
For covering trellises, fences, arbors, piazzas, trailing from vases, over
rockwork, etc., nothing can equal the gorgeous effect produced by their mar-,
velous quantities of bloom, borne in uninterrupted splendor from early summer
until cut down by frost. Their ease of culture and luxuriant growth, 12
to 15 feet high, render these Nasturtiums worthy of great popularity.

HENDERSON'S GIANTFLOWERING
Tom ^Thumb Nasturtiums
These Grand Bedding Nasturtiums have flowers often measuring three inches
across, in a great variety of new and charming combinations of colors, while
the brilliancy and velvety richness of the self-colored sorts have been greatly
enhanced. For summer flower-beds nothing can surpass them; the plants
form perfect mounds about one foot high by one foot across. Seed sown in
the open ground in the spring will produce plants that commence blooming
during early summer and continue until frost. (See cut.)

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.
