THE JOSEPH F. MARTIN CO., PAINESVILLE, OHIO 3 
EUPATORIUM COELESTINUM 
It is advisable to purchase field clumps during 
October and November. Upon receipt they should 
be potted into 3 and 4 inch pots and allowed to 
become well rooted. Then they should be trans- 
planted on open benches. If this method is fol- 
lowed these plants will produce a heavy crop of 
most ideal blue Ageratum-like flowers in the 
months of March and April on long stems, suitable 
for all types of floral arrangements. 
Per 10, $1.50; Per 100, $10.00

VARIEGATA 
Fine for forcing in pots for specimen 
sales over the counter or for arranging 
into jardinieres, decorative backgrounds, 
etc. They are so easily grown and so 
profitable that no florist should miss the 
opportunity of growing them for the many 
fine profit possibilities they present. They 
are extremely handsome and readily ac- 
cepted at sight by all classes of customers. 
They require very little attention; some 
even grow them under the benches where 
they get some light through the day. Put 
them into your greenhouses this fall and 
keep selling specimen plants from your 
stock all winter long. In the spring sell 
out completely for planting outsicle.
