CENTAUREA, 
OR 
GIANT SWEET 
SULTAN 
The flowers of this 
greatly improved annual are 
at least twice the size of the 
older varieties. It is most 
deliciously scented, with 
long flower stalks to facili- 
tate cutting, and when cut 
will last in water for a fort- 
night. In this respect 
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 244. 
Height, 1 Yi feet. 
May be sown in pots and 
pricked out for early 
flowering, or in open bor- 
ders in spring for general 
work.
