CULTURE. Locate planting where there will be uninterrupted sunlight, in as 
good soil as possible, thoroughly mixed with well-rotted manure. For autumn, seed 
should be sown during October or November, about 6 inches down in the trench, and 
covered with a heavy mulch for winter protection. Plants from this sowing should 
bloom two or three weeks earlier than from those sown in the spring. For spring, 
sow seed in March if possible. Vining support in the form of brush, chicken wire, or 
taut strings should be supplied, plants thinned 2 to 4 inches apart, and soil drawn 
in for greater root protection.

rerennidi Popular garden flower, 
showing a wonderful array of vivid 
colors in fancy patterns. Flowers are 
shaped, clustered and colored much 
like Phlox; the markings, however, 
being more sharply defined. Perfectly 
hardy but sow the seed in ultimate 
location, or transplant when young, 
as matured plants move awkwardly.

Beauty of Oxford Hybrids 
(Novelty). This is a splendid giant 
hybrid resulting from a cross between 
the variety Luminosa and the choice 
new strain named Beauty of Oxford.

more than one inch diameter. The 
plants are robust and fairly upright, 
although freely branched. The colors 
are delightful shades ranging from 
clear rose-pink to deep rose-red.
