Cultural Directions 
POR EARLY FLOWERING A«ters the 
* seed should be sown in the house and 
transplanted after all danger of frost is 
past; but for late flowering it is as well 
to sow them in the open in May. They 
require a sunny location, rich soil, fre- 
quent cultivation, and ample room to 
develop, setting them not closer than 9 
in. apart each way, even when planted 
for mass effects.
