 TOM THUMB 



Nasturtiums 



BE SURE 



and have a bed of Nasturtiums this Summer. They 

 will make a better display of sweet-scented flowers 

 for three months than almost any other plant. One ounce of seed will 

 plant a bed ten feet in diameter. One of the very best of our Summer 

 annuals that the amateur will have no difficulty in growing. It is one 

 of the best of bedding plants because of the profuseness and constancy 

 of its bloom. It will bloom from the last of June until frost cuts it 

 down if seed pods are not allowed to form. No two flowers will seem 

 to be of exactly the same shade and tint. It is fine for cutting, remain- 

 ing fresh for several da3's. It does not suffer from drouth and it does 

 not demand a rich soil. It likes a sunny location with a fair amount 

 of water.
