CENTAUREA, 
OR 
GIANT SWEET 
SULTAN 
The flowers of this greatly improved annual 
arc at least twice the size of the older varie- 
ties. It is most deliciously scented, with 
long flower stalks to facilitate cutting, and 
when cut will last in water 
for a fortnight. In this re- 
spect alone it exceeds any 
other annual we can call to 
mind. We give this flower the 
highest possible recommen- 
dation. For ordinary Sweet 
.Sultans see page l(i!) 
Height, 13^ feet. 
May be sown in pots and 
pricked out for early flower- 
ing, or in open borders in 
spring for general work.
