Fall planted perennials will set¬ 
tle in the soil before hard winter 
cona.tions set in. About the first 
part of December it is advisable 
to cover them slightly with a thin 
layer of straw or cornstalks, just 
enough to keep the sun from them. 
The plants will make quicker 
growth and give you a larger crop 
of flowers the first year. 
GYPSOPHILA 
BRISTOL FAIRY 
This Gypsophila is now too well 
known for detailed description. We 
have for sale this fall a real nice 
planting of field grown roots 
which are of outstanding quality. 
For the best results it is advisable 
to plant these as early in the fall 
as possible. In December cover 
them slightly with corn stalks or 
straw, just enough to keep the 
winter sun away from them. This 
covering of course should be re¬ 
moved in early spring. 
The plants we ship now will pro¬ 
duce for you next spring a real 
worthy crop of flowers. If this 
crop is cut clean, the plants will 
continue to produce for you a 
scattering of flowers over your 
field, coming back with a real good 
crop in September.
