PYRETHRUM—PAINTED DAISY 
This grand old-fashioned hardy perennial is easy to 
grow in any good garden soil where there are good drainage 
and full exposure to the sun. They prefer to be left un¬ 
disturbed for two or three years and if given an annual 
top dressing of well-rotted manure, flower generously. 
Their main season of blooming is in June, but if the first 
crop of flowers is removed as soon as finished, they will 
give a fair sprinkling of flowers during the summer and 
autumn months. The fine fern-like foliage of the plants 
is attractive at all times. 12 to 18 inches.
