VAUGHAN’S SEED STORE, CHICAGO AND NEW YORK, BOOK FOR FLORISTS 


HOUSE OF CYCLAMEN PLANTS GROWN FOR SEED FOR VAUGHAN’S SEED STORE 
Cineraria Hybrida 
Earlier sowing for the holiday season may be followed with a sow- 
ing in mid-September for flowering plants during March and April. 
After late Summer there is little if any danger from damping off and 
if the plants are kept free of insect pests, it will require little effort 
to develop nice specimens. During the coming Winter and the 
Spring of 1944, the average retail grower will find a ready sale for 
a goodly number and thus realize a fair profit, considering the com- 
paratively short time it takes to produce nice 5 and 6 in. stock. 
During the late Fall and Winter the plants will thrive in a house kept 
at around 45 degrees.

CINERARIA “GOLD CENTER” 
OF THE MULTIFLORA NANA TYPE 
We were the introducer of this magnificent strain several years 
ago. It is distinguished by the golden yellow stamens—in the 
type they are dark. The flowers are produced in great profusion, 
are of the same size and color range as the Multiflora Nana. 
The golden yellow stamens make a wonderful contrast with the 
blues, reds and pinks of the flowers.
