STOCKS - Gilliflower 
The best way to grow these plants success¬ 
fully, is to start the seed indoors early, in 
boxes or pots, and transplant to the garden 
when danger of frost is past. If you can't do 
this, sow the seed outdoors in the garden 
early, in a rich, rather light loam soil, mixed 
with peat moss and well-rotted manure. Stocks 
require cool growing weather to blossom well.
