Chrysantha Calendula Gypsophila, London Market 
Calendula 
Although Calendula has long been a favorite 
for indoor culture, many growers have been 
discouraged from trying to use them as an 
outdoor cut-flower. For those who have not 
been getting good blooms during the summer, 
we recommend sowing later (June 20th to July 
1st). They will start flowering the last of 
August and continue throughout September 
and October. You will find the flowers compar¬ 
ing favorably with greenhouse grown stock in 
size and length of stem.

Centaurea 
We find Centaurea cyanus and Imperialis (Sweet Sul¬ 
tan) bloom more freely and escape the insects and blight 
if sown the latter part of June or first of July. Treated 
in this way, Sweet Sultan proved to be a very valuable 
and unusual cut-flower.

Coleus 
There has always been a demand for a strain 
of Coleus seed which would produce bright 
colors with the fewest dark foliaged plants. 
Bright-colored plants are more profitable to 
grow from seed rather than from cuttings. In 
our Extra Fancy Mixture we have developed a 
strain which is unquestionably the brightest- 
colored Coleus mixture ever grown. The plants 
are uniformly fairly dwarf, compact and large- 
leaved.

seeds 95c; 1000 seeds $1.50; Oz. $3.50. 
Dahlia 
Unwins Hybrids may be brought into flower in flats or
