Seeds of Annuals 
Ambrosia Mexicana 
A plant which ia hardly known, and which in the writer’s mind is of inestimable value. 
The majority of the flowers grown are used for cutting and for home decoration, and our readers 
will agree with us that there are very few tall growing species whose foliage lends itself properly 
for use in vases with their flowers, as, for instance, Iris, Dahlias, Gladiolus, Asters, Zinnias, etc., 
and one has to resort to strange foliage. Few flower-lovers think of growing a plant for foliage 
only, for few know the value of foliage as a foil to flowers. In the above-mentioned plant one 
finds foliage of exceptional beauty and ideal for use with flowers on long defoliated stems. 
In appearance the individual leaves are almost identical with the Pierson Fern, a fern resem¬ 
bling the popular Boston Fern, with crested and mosslike foliage. A single plant has from 
three to six of these leaves, w-hich range from 10 to 20 inches in length. The foliage also has a 
very pleasing fragrance. It grows quickly and perfect foliage is obtainable within eight weeks 
from the date of sowing the seed. With successive sowings a continuous supply can be had 
till frost time.

circle the stout stem to fully a foot to 18 inches at the top, are very large and from their form
