perennial. Daisy-like flowers on long stems, with very 
narrow, pointed petals; wonderful flowers for cutting,

the finest of our cut-flowers. It lends itself admirably 
to many artistic make-ups in baskets, bowls, and vases. 
The finest flowers are gathered from plants grown in the 
greenhouse, but the plants can be grown in the garden 
in a very sheltered place and should be heavily pro- 
tected during winter. Pkt. 50 cts.
