The following list includes those Wonderful Glowing Suns termed JAPANESE VARIETIES.

Japanese Varieties $1.00 each, except noted.
These were all originated by me. In these varieties the outer or guard petals are large, and the inner ones are transformed into golden stamens, (without pollen,) or very narrow fillimentaceous petals; making them very unique flowers.
