SchizanthuS (Butterfly or Fringe Flower) 



This is one of the airiest and daintiest flowers imaginable, especially adapted to 

 bordering beds of taller flowers and those of a heavier growth. The seeds germinate 

 quickly and come into bloom in a few weeks from sowing. The florescence is such as to 

 completely obscure the foliage, making the plant a veritable pyramid of the most delicate 

 and charming bloom. The Schizanthus make admirable pot plants for the house in late 

 winter and early spring. For this purpose sow in the autumn. (See cut.) pER pKT
