three feet high. The flower and foliage are both line, 
and some of the varieties are of wondrous beauty. A 
soft, white down covers the leaves. Green-house per¬ 
ennials, which can be planted out in summer. They 
thrive best in a mixture of loam and peat, and young 
cuttings root freely under glass.

CLARKIA. 
The Clarkia is held in great estimation in Europe, 
and especially in England, where it is as common as 
Candytuft. The flowers are very pretty, and of many 
colors, double and single. As the plant is apt to suffer 
in hot, dry summers, it is better to sow the seed in Sep¬ 
tember, and the plants will be large enough by spring 
to make good bloom. Hardy annual ; one and a half 
feet high.
