Large Flowering Varieties for Pot Culture 
Under this heading we have selected varieties that are naturally dwarf in growth, be' 
lieving that they are better adapted for plants for general use. There is considerable 
diversity of opinion as to whether the small or Pompon type or the large'flowering ones 
are most suitable for this purpose and in greatest demand. If allowed to flower naturally 
they will afford the greatest display of color, but if large flowers are desired they may be 
restricted to three, four or five growths and then disbudded. To keep the plants dwarf it 
is essential that they be pinched many times during a season and this operation repeated 
until a few weeks prior to bud formation. It is impossible to give the exact date for 
pinching, but the flowering period should be the guide.
