B. nepalcnsis should be protected in a cold 
pit until they are fairly up: deep loamy soil 
suits them best. 
These plants have many of the characteristics 
of the well-known Coreopsis, and are very 
useful for mixed borders.

Very useful and pretty Annuals, growing freely 
in any good garden soil. C. umbellata is 
the most brilliant in colourof all the Annuals,

all the varieties make good ribands and beds.
