Cineraria Cultural Note: For early Spring flowering, sow in 
June and July. Later sowings may be made up to November, 
for late Spring work. Care should be taken in the preparation 
of the soil wherein the seeds are to be sown. A compost of 
one-quarter leaf mould, one-quarter cow manure and the bal¬ 
ance a good, friable loam, used in pans and boxes, will give 
excellent results. Be careful to cover the seed with only a 
slight covering of finely sifted soil.
