We do not pretend to recommend all the varieties listed above for northern gardens. The 
growing of fall bloomers is still in the experimental stage in our gardens and we will 
report on them in future catalogs. Autumn King, Autumn Queen, Equinox, and Septem¬ 
ber Skies bloomed well for us last fall. Frost Queen was in bloom on October 15th. Le 
Correge has been reported as a dependable bloomer in Mississippi. For best results irri¬ 
gate well during dry weather.
