KALANCHOE 
Globulifero coccinea (Blossfeltliana). Sowing up to July or Aug¬ 
ust of this popular pot plant produces flowering plants in late 
spring. Very fine seed and should he given care in germination. 
Tr. pkt., 60c; 3 pkts., $1.35. 
LUPINES (Annual) 
Good Lupines available in early spring bring nice money and in 
addition, make an ideal after-’Mum rotation. Seed should be sown 
for this crop in late summer, 3 or 4 seeds in a 3- or 4-in. pot (later 
thinned to strongest one), and kept in a cold frame until beds are 
ready indoors. Will stand light frosts when started in this way. 
Careful watering, ventilation, and temperatures under 50 are im¬ 
portant.

fer the above for forcing. Tr. pkt., 15c; 1 oz., 45c.

MARIGOLD 
For midwinter flowers, Marigolds are hard to beat. Bright, pos¬ 
itive colors that are not affected by spells of dark weather, free- 
flowering, and ease of culture are points that shouldn’t be over¬ 
looked. 
WINTER FLOWERING. 9000 s. The following are “short day” 
varieties that flower only in the short days of winter. The sowing 
season is, therefore, limited in our latitude, beginning end of 
July to first part of November. Should be planted in raised bed 
10x12 in. This free-flowering class SHOULD NOT BE MISSED 
by any miscellaneous crop grower. 15 ft. on the end of a bench 
will be ample for retail growers. 
"Australian Tree. The standard variety. Rich mahogany-red with 
golden yellow crest. Although most flowers will be double, a 
few singles will appear and can readily be used. 
Tr. pkt., 25c; % oz., 60c; 1 oz., $1.00. 
Lieb's. Quite similar to above. Tr. pkt., 50c; % oz., $1.00. 
Lieb's Winter Sunshine. (New.) Described by originator as same 
as above but golden orange with yellow center. 
Tr. pkt., 50c. 
GIANT AFRICAN. 10,000 s. From a mid-August sowing trans¬ 
planted in flats 4 inches apart, plants of this class will run up 
single-stemmed and produce a fine crop of flowers on 18-in. stems 
in December. Try it.

well when handled as outlined above. Much larger flowered than 
the regular Giant African varieties. Shades of orange and yellow. 
Tr. pkt., 35c; % oz., 50c; 1 oz., $1.80. 
Showing spikes of the new Giant King class of annual Lupine—the class 
to stay by for greenhouse cutting. 
MIGNONETTE. 
27,000 s. We continue to find this old-fashioned flower quite 
profitable as a spring cut flower item. Should be sown in August in 
pots and planted out in a Carnation house 10x12 in. Disbudding 
and supports are necessary for fine, long-stemmed flowers. 
s;! Bail Strain. Our own greenhouse strain selected for earliness and 
large spikes of light colored flowers. Two to three weeks earlier 
than New York Market. 
V -2 tr. pkt., 60c; tr. pkt., $1.00; % oz., $1.75; 1 oz., $6.00.

Pudica (Sensitive Plant). 4500 s. Tr. pkt., 15c; 1 oz., 35c. 
MYOSOTIS (Forget-me-not) 44,000 s. 
* Ball Early. This strain is outstanding for early flowering habit. 
An August sowing will be in full flower in November, while 
the regular Blue Bird under same conditions will not flower 
until the following February. Bright clear blue flowers 
throughout the dark winter months on 8 to 12 in. stems gives 
this variety real value for midwinter cutting. 
Tr. pkt., 25c; % oz., 60c; 1 oz., $2.00. 
*Ruth Fischer. A very excellent dwarf winter flowering strain for 
pots. Quite free-flowering. Light, clear blue.

For other Myosotis, see page 28. 
NASTURTIUM 
175 s. The following varieties are of the double climbing type 
that, from an August sowing, will produce an abundance of bright¬ 
ly colored flowers throughout the dark winter months when such 
stock is scarce. Plant 12 in. apart and provide a well exposed lo¬ 
cation with substantial support.
