LOBELIA. CARTERS’ DARK COMPACT. 
Very popular garden plants. The com- 
pact-growing varieties are sown in winter 
under glass, and transplanted into boxes for 
growing on to be ready by the bedding-out 
season. The spreading varieties are suitable 
for hanging baskets and window box edgings, 
whilst the true perennial species are grown as 
pot plants or single specimens in beds for 
summer decoration. We would direct atten- 
tion to the new double-flowered form on 
opposite page. This can only be offered in 
plants.
