NASTURTIUMS 
A marvelous range of new colors has been developed in this favorite flower, which is in constant bloom throughout the sea¬ 
son, and if these are kept well picked so that the plant cannot produce seed they will continue to flower until frost. No other an¬ 
nual flower seed will produce such a lavish profusion of bloom for so long a time and with the same small outlay of care and atten¬ 
tion. Thin, poor soil, if possible disintegrated rock, is the best soil, as this produces the maximum of bloom. Soils in which ma¬ 
nure has been used heavily cause the plant to produce a heavy growth of leaves at the expense of blossoms. They are also in 
such soils apt to rot off in wet weather, especially if the plants have been left standing close to one another. You cannot have too 
many Nasturtiums. Plant them along fences, hedges, or wherever it is desired to have a bunch of bright color.
