NASTURTIUM. 



The dwarf varieties of Nasturtium are 

 among the most useful and beauiiful an- 

 nuals for bedding, massing, etc., owing to 

 their compact growth, richness of color 

 and profusion of bloom. The tall sorts are 

 admirably adapted for rock- work, cover- 

 ing trellises or rustic work. They flower 

 most profusely when planted in a poor 

 soil, and remain in bloom for a longtime; 

 stand heat and drought without the slight- 

 est efTect. The seed, if picked young, is 

 an excellent sub^ti^u^e for cajiers.
