One of our most popular annuals for tall borders and for cutting, blooming in late summer and fall. Of tall and upright growth with 

 finely cut foliage and graceful, long-stemmed, showy flowers that last well in water. For early flowers the seed should be sown in boxes in 



March or April, or planted in the open ground as soon as all danger 

 from frost is past. Pinch back plants when they are once well 

 established, as this makes them more sturdy and compact and 

 encourages them to bloom earlier and more freely. 

 THE NEW EARLY DOUBLE-CRESTED. This fine, new type 

 makes particularly effective flowers for cutting. About 75 per 

 cent of the seedlings will bear large, beautifully formed flowers 

 with full-double centers and an outer row or crest of guard 

 petals. Blooms from early August until frost. 5 feet tall.
