Boddington's Matchless Cinerarias 



In the culture of the Cineraria the one mistake so often made is that 

 of sowing tlie seed too soon. The plants thus raised, more often than 

 not, make a rank growth ; this is not in any sense desirable. By sow- 

 ing in May and June plants large enough for all decorative purposes 

 can be had. In after-treatment the aim should be to secure as hard a 

 j;rovvth as possible. Sturdy plants with leaves of medium size are best.

 of the three most famous English strains, which I can recommend 

 to those wishing to grow the best. Tall, }^ pkt. 60 cts., pkt. $1 ;
