NASTURTIUM 
A marvelous range of new colors has been 
developed in this favorite flower which, for three 
or four months of the season, makes a better 
display than almost any other plant. No other 
hardy annual will produce such a lavish profusion 
of flowers for so long a time with the same small 
outlay of time and labor. The maximum of 
bloom is produced on thin soils, and never flags 
through the hottest weather. In soils too rich, 
leaves predominate, and the plants are apt to 
rot olf in wet weather, especially if standing too 
close. The tall varieties make a very effective 
display when trained on fences or trellises and 
the low sorts are fine for edging and massing. 
DWARF OR TOM THUMB 
(Tropseolum nanurn) 
These have a neat, compact habit and attrac¬ 
tive foliage; they bloom in two months from 
sowing, and most profusely the whole season.
