*-*~vERlTAl’S for cut flowers no out-door plants are more useful, for at the commencement of 
|Q# the summer they begin to bloom, and continue as long as the weather keeps open; like all 
‘ other flowers, they delight in having plenty of room, deep rich soil, plenty of manure, 
and a good soaking in dry weather ; treat them thus, and the quantities of aster-shaped blooms will 
be immense all the summer and autumn.
