ding plants, is unsurpassed for its brilliant colors and immense-size flowers. 
The plants, of spreading growth, are just covered with large heads of 
beautiful, colored flowers until late in autumn. Best results are obtained 
by sowing the seed early in the house or hotbed, but outdoor sowings may 
be made also in May. Annual. 2 ft.

WALLFLOWER 
The Wallflower is particularly noted for its sweet fragrance and deserves 
to be more popular than it really is. To obtain fine plants for setting out 
in early spring, the seed should be sown in July and August, and the plants 
wintered over in coldframes. The plants are of strong, sturdy growth, 
well-branched and from Ij to 2 feet high, rendering them most suitable for 
bedding. H. H. P.

WILD FLOWER GARDEN MIXTURE 
Although better results are obtained from the sowing of separate flower 
seeds, this mixture, which is composed entirely of annuals, is very useful for 
sowing among shrubbery, along driveways or places that would otherwise 
look barren. It will produce a beautiful and gay effect all summer and sup¬ 
ply plenty of flowers for bouquets. Sow the seed broadcast outdoors dur¬ 
ing May and June. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 30 cts., $!•
