WALLFLOWERS 
Wallflowers are elegant plants for beds and for 
pot culture. Among them we find wonderful shades 
of yellow, brown, purple, and red. They bloom the 
second year from seed, and, if grown outdoors, 
should be planted in a sheltered position. A south- 
ern exposure, with protection from north and west 
winds, would be best. The flowers are fragrant, and 
are much worn in corsage bouquets. The best way 
to raise Wallflowers is to plant them in pots, set 
them in the coldframe over winter, and plant out in 
May. 2 ft.
