SUNFLOWER 
Seed may be sown very early in the season, and the plants can be

sowings may be made in the open in April or May where the plants 
are to flower.

SUTTON’S STOCKS 
Summer-Flowering Ten-Week Varieties 
It is usual to sow annual Stocks under glass from the middle to 
the end of March. Sow thinly that the plants may become stout, and 
from the first give air freely when practicable. Prick off the seedlings 
into pans or boxes and give them the protection of a cold frame. 
Annual Stocks can also be successfully grown from sowings made in 
the open about the end of April.

chrysums and other everlasting flowers.
