BALSAM 



Balsams are increasing in popularity for the summer garden. They are excellent plants 

 for emergency use because they grow so quickly that they may be sowed quite late, and 

 they transplant easily even in full bloom. If set out 2 feet apart they develop much larger 

 sprays of bloom. Splendid for table decoration. IH ft-
