Our Specialty. 
These lovely flow- 
era are favorites with 
all, hot only for the 
brilliancy and va- 
riety of colors, but 
for the durability of 
their bloom. Seed 
may be sown in the 
open ground in the 
spring or summer^ 
or in the house early 
in spring. Young 
plants produce the 
largest and best flow- 
ers. The plants 
should always occu- 
py a cool, partially 
shaded situation; the 
soil should be rich. 
Coolness and mois- 
ture are necessary. 
Transplant when an 
inch high. Seed sown 
in July will blossom 
late in autumn ; if 
sown in October, will 
bloom the following 
spring.
