 of the 

 most brilliant and at the same time one of the easiest and 

 most satisfactory plants, which can readily be grown from 

 seed. It will grow and thrive in any kind of soil if given a 

 sunny position, but prefers a light, rich loam. Seed may be 

 sown in the open ground any time after danger from frost is 

 past, and in a few weeks they are a sheet of bloom, remaining 

 so until frost. They may be used in a variety of ways, such as 

 a carpet to beds of Roses, in boxes, vases, etc., but it is when 

 grown in masses, in beds or borders, that they show to best 

 advantage.
