A magnificent genus, embracing some of. ‘the most popular 
flowers in cultivation, producing a great variety of brilliant 
colors and profusion of bloom. The varieties classed as an- 
nuals are really biennials, but are treated as annuals and may 
be sown out of doors when the danger from frost is past, and — 
in a few weeks’ time they are a mass of bloom continuing so 
until after hard frost. Asa rule, they survive the winter if. 
given slight protection, flowering abundantly the following sea-_ 
son, They grow about a foot high and can be used in beds ‘or 
borders of solid or mixed colors. The double flowering Sofis | 
are almost as fine as carnations for cutting. They are not per- 
ticular as to soil, but should have a sunny location. i
