CENTAUREA This important family is particularly well 

 adapted for use in bedding and in the border. The types culti- 

 vated for their flowers have bulbous calyxes from which ex-

 a downy growth on the foliage, making them quite orna- 

 mental. All are of the easiest culture from seed.

CINERARIA [tP] Few decorative plants can compare with 

 the resplendent Cineraria. Except in a mild chmate such as 

 California's, where they can be successfully grown in shaded 

 spots out-of-doors, they make ideal pot plants to be 

 grown in a cool house. The bushy plants with large velvety 

 leaves about the base form a broad truss completely 

 covered with daisy-like flowers. Their colors are vivid in 

 shades and combinations of purple, red, blue and white.

 stock of this sort supplies trusses of large flowers in most 

 attractive colors. 



Dwarf Large Flowered Mixed [12 in.] An equally choice 

 and handsome variety as the semi-dwarf strain but less 

 tall. Particularly desirable for potting. 



Stellata [2 ft.] A most distinctive class, the plants of which

 loose clusters of graceful, star-like flowers are especially 

 decorative.
