CINERARIAS. 
CANNELLS’ CINERARIAS. 
If required to flower in winter, seed must be sown in May or June. 
The secret of growing well is to grow fast, never allowing them to 
receive a check, either from being pot bound, dryness of root, or 
attack of insects, the cooler they are kept the better, just preventing 
frost reaching them, and giving abundance of air. If the green aphis 
is not kept thoroughly away there will not be a bloom worth seeing. 
Of course at all times the keenest observation of extreme tem¬ 
perature must be made for cold, cutting draughts or a too glaring sun.
