Rampion. 



Raiponce. Reponche. HapunseUHubc . 



Culture. — Sow in the open ground early in May, either broadcast 

 or in drills ten inches apart. As the seed is very fine, it merely re- 

 quires to be pressed firmly into the soil. Thin out the seedlings if 

 they come out too thick, and water frequently during hot weather. 

 The roots may be gathered for use from October onward throughout 

 the winter.

ROQUETTE, 



Roquette. J a r a m a g o . 



Culture.— Sow early in spring, in rows, and thin out to eight or 

 ten inches. If kept well scuffled and watered, the tart flavor of the 

 leaves is greatly diminished. This flavor is not pronounced in the 

 small leaves which are used for salad. The flowers, appearing from 

 May to June, have very much the odor of orange blossoms.
