Nasturtium 



Few plants are more easily grown or remain longer in bloom. In favorable soil 

 flowers are produced in abundance throughout the season. Seed is usually soAvn 

 outdoors as soon as the weather is warm and settled, in the row where the plants are 

 to remain. Well pulverized soil, preferably well drained and modei-ately rich, should 

 be used and the seed covered with about one inch of fine soil firmly pressed down 

 For earlier blooming, start indoors and transplant to the open ground after danger of frost is over.
