MISCELLANEOUS PERENNIALS — Continued 
Ball Matricaria outdoors in July 90-95 per cent double. For the 
retail grower its value could be increased by spreading the crop 
through two sowings, 2-3 weeks apart. Sowing for above crop 
was made February 1st.

MATRICARIA Capensis (Feverfew). 145,000 s. 
*Boll Double White. Since introducing this strain in the spring 
of 1934, demand for it has grown steadily as a standard green¬ 
house cut flower crop. Plants from a January or February 
sowing transplanted into the field in May or June will pro¬ 
duce a nice crop in early fall. Also a late summer sowing will 
make a good crop the following spring. These same clumps 
can then be moved indoors in November for a spring green¬ 
house crop. Differs from ordinary cutting propagated strain in 
having smaller and more compact, completely double flowers 
that hold up much better, and in being some later flowering. 
Responds readily to additional lighting for earlier flowering.

in the fall will make specimen pot plants from February and 
March on. Also make fine hardy border plants if given partial 
shade.
