Winter-Blooming 

 ehrysanthemums 



If it were .generally known that Cbrj-ssntheniums are 

 as easilj- grown and as satisfactory for Winter cul- 

 ture indoors as Carnations they would become immense- 

 ly poyular. Use ixjts or boxes not less tL^u 5 inches 

 across. Tse rich soil. For two weeks at least pinch 

 the tops, also the lower branches of plants to form 

 <le.sired, and do not allow flowers to form until the 

 plant is healthy and sturdy- Keep in fairly co<^>l tem- 

 perature. Water mnfieratply Give partial sunshine.

Winter-Blooming 

 Carnations 



For Wiuter-blormiug the Carnation is as easilj- grown 

 as a Geranium and equally satisftictory. Plant 'in good 

 soil, give plenty of vvater and drain well. Let the 

 plant be cool at night. A forty to fifty degree tem- 

 perature is about right. Keep the dead foliage picked 

 off. They will bloom contnmally throughout tho 

 Winter. Fine plants can be sent by mail; it is be.-t, 

 however, to send by express when possible, as they a.- 

 rive in much better conuirion. Remember we do not offer 

 small 2h-ii"'/i-pot jiliints hut leirge jield-groun stock, which
