Pyrethrum roseum hybridum grandiflorum 
PORTULAGA 
There are few flowers that make such a dazzling display of color 
in the bright sunshine as a bed of Portulacas. It is not an unusual 
sight to see thousands of blossoms open at a single time, and ranging 
as they do through so many different shades. A light, dry soil and 
above all a sunny position is to their advantage. Sow the seed broad- 
cast, very shallow in the open ground in May, and after once sown 
they usually resow themselves. H.A. 14 ft.
