when the seedlings are two or three inches high they can be put 
out in the ground. 
In order to succeed in pine land with annuals in winter in lower 
Florida it will be necessary to use some water. If one has an 
irrigating plant he will have no trouble; if not, a well with a force 
pump and hose will solve the problem on a small scale. Usually 
a considerable amount of rain falls during the drier months but 
hardly enough for annuals on high land. One can, when dry 
spells occur, do something in a small way for annuals by carrying 
water. 
Pleas gives the following list of annuals which are successfully 
cultivated at Chipley. Petunias, Cosmos, Sweet alyssum, Candy- 
tuft, Nasturtiums, China pinks, Marigolds, California poppies, 
Sunflower, Larkspurs, Cypress vine, Standing cypress, Celosia, 
Coreopsis, Portulaca, Balsams, Globe amaranths, Sweet peas 
(with protection), Mignonette, Thunbergia, Zinnias, Gerardia,
