TORENIAS 
Every florist that grows bedding plants and material for porch 
and window boxes and is not now handling any of the Torenias 
should investigate the possibilities of these plants. That they are 
not well known is shown by their absence from so many gardens. 
And that, they deserve far more attention than they now get, is 
evident from their good behavior under average garden conditions.
