SALVIA. | 
Handsome plants, excellent for beds or borders, with long | 
spikes of flowers, which continue in bloom until late in the fall. | 
For early flowering sow the Seed indoors in March or April, or } 
outside as soon as the warm weather appears. Salvias planted } 
on light or rather poor soils will come into flower much earlier | 
than if planted on heavy, strong soils, where they develop a } 
much more rank plant and consequently later in flowering. H.
