NASTURTIUMS 
(See Page 27) 
Today nasturtiums are more popular than ever before. Not only 
are the old favorites being planted, but we have such a variety 
of improved strains with truly gorgeous blooms. For easy cul¬ 
ture and brilliant colors they are unsurpassed. Sow the seed 
in April or May—as soon as the ground is warm. As the seeds 
are large, soak them in lukewarm water for a couple of hours, 
then drop in holes 8 inches apart, two seeds to a hole. This 
saves thinning later.
