Candytuft (Annual) 
If you have grown annual candytuft before and found it a poor 
seller, it is more likely that you had too much of the white variety. 
Try in its place a few of the colored varieties, such as Pink, Rose, 
Carmine, Lavender and Crimson and be convinced that this annual 
is of much use in the florist's establishment in the spring. It will 
take about five months to bring them into flower indoors. Plans 
may be made accordingly, taking into consideration the period cut 
flowers will be of most use to the individual florist. A good time for 
one planting is soon after the winter holidays as space becomes 
available. Some growers sow the seed singly, planting out later at 
the distance of a foot apart.
