MISCELLANEOUS SEEDS 



For Greenhouse Sowing 



For complete list of Flower Seeds see Spring Catalogue for 191 2. Our General Catalogue for the coming season will be ready early 

 in January, 1913. If not received in due time, same will be sent on application. 



The early fall months are opportune for sowing seeds of many of the popular Bedding and Decorative plants. Seedlings potted at this 

 season can be grown on slowlj- to produce sturdy, vigorous stock, some varieties available for winter and early spring use, whilst others 

 may be held in semi-dormant condition until the warm rays of the sun in March force a renewal of growth. Many varieties of above 

 plants, held quite dry and pot-bound, may be wintered in a surprisingly low temperature and yield quality and early effects not obtain- 

 able from late sowings.
