HASTINGS’ MIXED NASTURTIUMS 
These may be termed everybody’s flower. No flower garden is complete without them. Per- 
fectly at home in all parts of the South ; they furnish a never failing display of brilliant bloom all 
through the season. Sow in any good garden soil, when leaves are well out on the trees, scatter- 
ing the seed thinly. When well up thin out the tall sorts six inches apart, and ten inches for the 
dwarf varieties. Our mixture of Nasturtiums comes to us direct from the great Nasturtium spe- 
cialists of California. No such brilliant range of shades and colors has ever been seen before in 
Nasturtium mixtures. Th«y please every one who plants them and are sure to satisfy you if you 
want the best there is to be had. Nasturtiums are as easily grown as any other flower and the 
dwarf varieties make the most beautiful beds, borders, edging, and porch boxes, while the tall 
varieties are unsurpassed to cover stumps, flower stands, low fences, and unsightly 
places. It is doubtful if among the plants classed as Annuals there is any other of the 
summer blooming varieties which combines in so great degree the ease of culture, beau- 
tiful flowers of showy colors, profusion of bloom from early summer until killed by 
frost, and general excellence as the Nasturtiums. More and larger flowers are produced 
on thin soils, very rich soil tending to make rank leaf growth. Hot weather has no in- 
jurious effect. Notice beautiful illustration in colors on front inside cover page.

miAAnflnwOf Ipomeas (Moonflowers) are popular everywhere in the &'outh 
Ivl Wllliwvwi as climbers for shade on porches, trellises and arbors. They make 
a rapid growth and a dense shade, protecting porches from the hot rays of the sun. 
They grow 20 feet high in good soil, branching freely, and at night'and during cloudy 
days are covered with large flowers. Seeds should be planted after all danger of frost 
is past, where plants are to stand, about 10 inches apart. They can be planted earlier 
in pots in the nouse and transplanted when 6 inches high. The seeds are very hard, 
and to insure germination cut or file through this hard outer shell before planting. 
Cover one inch deep.
