(CENTAUREA.) 
Hints on Culture . — The flowers of this greatly improved 
annual are at least twice the size of the older varieties and a number 
of distinct new shades are now available. Its most deliciously scented 
long-stemmed flowers will last in water for a fortnight. In this 
respect alone it exceeds any other annual we can call to mind. We 
give this flower the highest possible recommendation. May be sown 
in pots and pricked out for early flowering, or in open borders in 
spring for general work. Ht. li ft.
