 colored hybrids. They are half hardy perennials, 

 usually grown as greenhouse or window plants where 

 they flower continuously. The Daisy-like blossoms, 3

 are unsurpassed as cut flowers, being of splendid lasting 

 substance. For garden culture in cold climates the 

 plants are wintered over in cold frames like Pansies, 

 etc. They are easily grown from seed and will com- 

 mence flowering the first year though older plants will 

 produce the greater abundance of bloom.
