following plants will well repay your efforts in fine plants 
for pot culture.

Cultural Note: Use compost of leaf-mold, peat, loam, and 
sharp sand, well-moistened but not wet. Sow on surface, and 
barely cover with fine, same mixture sifted over and pressed 
down. Water from below whenever surface shows any dry- 
ness. Keep shaded, and temperature even with a pane of
