Candytuft Uinbellata 
CANDYTUFT—IBERIS 
Showy plants of easy cultivation, furnishing a wealth of bloom. 
Fine for bouquets for ribboning or dwarf beds. Florists should sow 
in August and September and give the plants slight protection over 
winter. Fall sown plants will bloom from May to July and bear 
flowers of extra fine quality. Sown early in spring will bloom from 
July to September. For Mothers’ and Memorial Days sow in the 
latter part of December and grow up in two in pots. Or you can sow 
in an exhausted lettuce or chrysanthemum bed, space the plants 8 
inches apart and you will get an enormous amount of high class 
bloom, even without pinching in a house with carnation temperature. 
To increase the size of flowers for cut flowers some of the branch¬ 
es should be removed. For continuous blooming sow every two 
weeks. They are easily forced into bloom during winter. The best 
variety for cut flowers is Empress. Of the perennial varieties Gibral- 
tarica is the finest, blooming from March to June, but never attains 
more than 2 feet in height. If left undisturbed will form fine bush 
with dense foliage. Hardy but needs some protection over winter.
