valuable flowers which can readily be grown 
from seed. Sown out of doors the first week 
of May, the plants bloom early in July, remain¬ 
ing in full flower until November. For earlier

AQUILEGIA. (Columbine.) (Akeley.) 
Plants ready early in May. 
No hardy plant grown from seed is more easily 
handled than the Columbine. Seed may be plant¬ 
ed in the open ground early in spring, and will 
bloom the same season ; or they may be planted 
in August or September, and will come up early 
in spring to make vigorous plants, which will 
bloom abundantly during late spring and early 
summer. 
Columbines should be planted wherever their 
presence will serve to lighten up a too stiff and 
formal planting, for BO other plant is more gen 
erous of its blooms, or is more effectively adapted 
for cut flowers. 1 % ft.
