GARDENING FOR LITTLE GIRLS 
late in the fall. They would be attractive in either 
of the following simple designs: 
MARIGOLDS 
cae 
AFORNIA POPPIES 
FLOWERS THAT WILL BLOOM FROM EARLY SUMMER 
UNTIL FROST 
Candytuft for a border, with petunias in the 
center, is another combination that should blossom 
from June until frost. Poppies and cornflowers 
would also last all summer if you would keep out 
part of the seed and sow a couple of times at in- 
tervals of several weeks. The combinations of red 
and blue is very pretty, too. Sweet alyssum, with 
red or pink geraniums, would be lovely all season. 
For an all yellow bed, plant California poppies to 
bloom early in the border, and African marigolds, 
or Tom Thumb nasturtiums to bloom in the center 
from July on late into the fall. With any of the 
combinations suggested you could gather flowers 
almost any time you pleased, for they are all pro- 
fuse bloomers.
