FZiOWEB G A B D E N.— Sow Flower 

 seeds of all kinds in boxes and trans-

 ground, such as Pansy, Daisy, Phlox, 

 Petunia, Chinese and other Pinks, 

 Alyssum, Candytuft, Larkspur, Lobelia 

 and Poppy. 



Set out roses and other hardy plants. 



Plant Hyacinths, Tulips, Narcissus, 

 Jonquils, Anemones and Ranunculus in 

 open ground or flower pots for forcing-. 



To force Hyacinths and other bulbous 

 rooted plants in flower pots, use lig-ht 

 but rich soil, plant in 5-inch pots, so 

 that the top of the bulbs are covered 

 half an inch. 



Give one g-ood watering: and bury the 

 pots 6 inches under the g-round, until the 

 bulbs are well rooted, which takes from 

 4 to 5 weeks. When well rooted take 

 the pots out of the ground and gradually 

 expose to the lig-ht, when they will soon 

 put out and bloom well. Plant English 

 Rye Grass for your winter lawn. 



Please bear in mind that all the 

 prices quoted in this catalogTxe 

 include prepayment of postag"e on 

 all seeds ordered by packet, ounce,
