An autumn-flowering plant, requiring treatment similar to 

 the Dahlia. The flowers are borne profusely in loose clusters, 

 and present a charming appearance when the plants are in full 

 blossom as they wave to and fro in every passing breeze. Seed 

 should be sown early in spring and the plants transplanted in 

 the open border when danger from frost is past. It begins 

 blooming in August and continues until cut down by frost. If 

 young plants are starved a little it will have the effect of bring- 

 ing them into bloom early. For planting in shrubbery it will 

 be found very valuable.
