Godetia 
GODETIA 
Favorite, free-blooming, hardy annuals, with 
widely opened flowers of satiny texture, and of 
the most delicate and lovely colors. They are 
beautiful for solid beds, border lines, pots, and for 
growing in shaded places, where so few really fine 
flowers will flourish. Sow seed in the open bor- 
der in spring, or in a cold-frame, and transplant 
seedlings to stand a foot apart in rather thin soil. 
Fine for cut-flowers. Average height, 1 ft. 
65452. Carters New Lavender. Single. Award of Merit, 
R.H.S. The pale lavender flowers are borne on long grace- 
ful racemes. This is quite distinct from any other Go- 
detia, and is splendid for pot culture. Sown in September 
the plants bloom in early spring. Ht. 2 ft Pkt. 10c. 
65454. Carters Double Pink. A rather stronger grower 
than Carters New Lavender, bearing a number of long 
spikes, which carry 18 to 20 beautiful double clear pink 
blooms, which will last a week in water if cut in a young 
state. It is also splendid for pot culture. Ht. 2*/> ft.
