Theee popular flowers are easily grown, and are so highly fragrant and of such great beauty, and have so 

 many good qualities, that they deserve a place in every garden. They should be given good rich soil to grow 

 in. and will amply reward good treatment with remarkably large pyramids of bloom ; the flowers represent a 

 great diversity of color. The Double Large-flowering Ten Weeks Stocks are great improvements over the 

 Gilliflowers of the olden times, the flowers being much larger and more densely double, and there is also 

 a much larger variety of colors and shades than there used to be.
