   the 
  largest 
  leaved 
  morning 
  glories 
  I 
  ever 
  saw, 
  and 
  

   large 
  beautiful 
  blooms. 
  The 
  vines 
  were 
  the 
  envy 
  of 
  

   all 
  who 
  saw 
  them. 
  I 
  Planted 
  in 
  pots 
  setting 
  out 
  when 
  

   plants 
  were 
  3 
  or 
  4 
  inches 
  high. 
  They 
  have 
  made 
  my 
  

   porch 
  a 
  place 
  of 
  beauty 
  each 
  year. 
  

  

  Our 
  Pansies 
  Were

  Great.
