Cultivation. It is preferable to sow seed in prepared trenches in spring, hut they may also he sown in rows 
or clumps in flower borders. Protect the young plants from cold and cutting winds, and stick them as soon as 
they need it. Where a quantity of cut flower is needed, it is advisable to make more than one sowing. To 
obtain flowers in May the seeds should be sown in autumn in pots, kept under protection, but cool, through the 
winter and the young plants put out in March. If the dead flowers and seed pods are picked off, flowers will be 
produced all through the summer and autumn.
