•easy of cultivation. Sow the seeds in the open border where intended to 
llower any time from the middle of March to the end of June, and thin 
out the plants to four or six inches apart as soon as they arc large enough 
to handle. For Winter blooming sow any time in August, in pots of five 
or six inches diameter, and thin out the plants to three or five in a pot, 
keeping them as hardy as convenient before placing under glass for the 
Winter. The following list includes the finest varieties of recent introduc-
