CARTERS’ GENERAL LIST OF STANDARD FLOWER SEEDS- -continued. 
97 
ORNAMENTAL GRASSES FOR DECORATIONS (SEEDS). 
Most of the varieties of Ornamental Grasses were included in our great Annual Collection of Flowers, etc., grown from seed, and exhibited by 
us in the Gardens of the Royal Botanic Society, and awarded the Gold Medal of the Society. They make charming Pot Plants to mingle with the 
brighter colours of Flowering Plants in the Conservatory. 
In making up Winter Bouquets the Dried Grasses are greatly improved by an admixture of EVERLASTING FLOWERS. See page 91 
(Seeds) and page 136 (Dried Specimens). 
Gultiuation -Sow in a cold frame in February or March, and pick off into 6-inch or larger pots (about 4 or 6 plants in a pot) when the seedlings are 
•ufficiently large, and protect from winds and heavy rain.
