Ipomoea, 
Heavenly Blue, 
Improved 
Ipomoea . Morning-Glory 
For the best results with Heavenly Blue and 
other Ipomoeas, start the seed early enough to 
have good, strong plants in 4-inch pots to set out 
in late May. They bloom best in soil rather low 
in fertility and in a fairly dry location.

ANNUAL LARKSPUR 
Excellent Strains for the Greenhouse and Outdoors 
Many florists are finding Annual Larkspurs profitable greenhouse crops. They are easy to grow, 
the seed is inexpensive, and the crop is made in a comparatively short time. Sowings of seed in the 
greenhouse during December and January will give excellent crops during late April and May. 
Sow the outdoor crop as early as your soil is in workable condition. 
Varieties marked asterisk (*) are most salable as cut-flowers.
