FulcTs Blue Lace Flower 
For several years in the past my patrons would come to me 
and ask for seeds of the Charming Blue Lace Flower which is 
found in all the finest florists’ shops along Fifth Avenue, and I 
had to confess that the botanical name of the flower was un- 
known to me and without it I could secure no seeds. 
If there isone thing I dislike.it is to confess that I cannot name 
a flower, and so I was determined to locate this mysterious “Lace 
Flower,” and after two years of ceaseless search I have been 
successful and rather than wait for another twelve months, 
because my catalog is off press, I adopt this unique method 
to introduce this old-new flower to the gardening 
public. I rather like the name of “Lace Flower,” 
and, as the botanical name is hard to pronounce, I 
shall offer it as the heading indicates. 
What is it like? An Annual of easiest possible 
culture; growing 18 inches high and of bushy 
growth, each side shoot terminates in a flat umbel 
flower of a most charming pale blue color; excellent for 
cutting and most useful for table decorations. Sow 
seeds in May directly into the garden and thin out af- 
terwards to allow 12 inches of space. It is of cut-and- 
come-again nature; the more the flowers are cut, the 
more the plants will bloom.
