Stock: Clibrans’ “Gold Medal” Strains 
Stocks, with their charmingly coloured fragrant flowers, occupy in our gardens a position of as great im- 
portance as Asters. The necessity of obtaining the best seeds is at once obvious. The strains we offer are the 
outcome of long and careful hybridisation and selection, the percentage of double flowers being remarkably 
high. Plants are of robust habit, producing large spikes of splendid flowers. 
Ten-week, h.h.a. 
Comprises the best-known and most widely cultivated 
members of the Stock family. Sow indoors thinly in 
shallow pans or boxes during March. When the plants 
have made sufficient growth to be easily handled, prick 
them off into boxes or a covered frame. As soon as they 
have commenced rooting give a little air, which should 
be increased as the plants develop. Transplant to where 
they are to flower in May. These varieties may also be 
sown in the open ground during April. The former method, 
however, is preferable.
