Daniels’ Choice Florists’ Flower Seeds. 
Daniels’ Superb Cinerarias. 
Our grand strain of Cineraria hybrida, as 
figured, has been carefully saved from our' fine 
collection of named and choicest seedling flowers, 
and which we have every confidence in recom- 
mending as unsurpassable. The colours will be 
found varied and brilliant, combined with a 
faultless habit of plant and form of flower. 
When required for a general display in early Spring, the seeds 
should bo sown in July or early in August, and when for Winter 
blooming, a few should be sown in March or April. Where the 
quantity of glass available is somewhat limited, the July sowm 
will, however, be found the most useful. Sow in well-drained 
pots or pans of light rich soil, giving the seeds but a very slight 
covering, and place in a eool frame or under a band-light in 
a shady spot, pot off singly into small pots as soou as the young 
plants are large enough, and shift as required. Good Cinerarias 
may also bo easily raised by sowing in July or August in a moist 
shady situation in the open air, taking care to pot up in September. 
Ciuerarias will bear a great amount of cold, but should never be 
exposed to frost. Green fly, damp, excessive waterings, and extreme 
dryness should also be carefully guarded against.
