Gy pso phila-Grandiflora

ornamental trellis the Cypress Vine cannot 
be excelled. It has a profusion of scarlet or 
white star-shaped blossoms; its finely cut foli-

Dablia 
But few people know Dahlias can be raised 
from seed and will bloom the first year. The 
seeds germinate as easily and certainly as 
Zinnias, and from the very first development 
are strong and sturdy little plants. Plant them 
in a shallow box or pan early in March or 
April, transplant them carefully as _ their 
growth demands, and keep the soil moderately 
moist. When all danger from frost is over, 
plant them in the bed or border in the gar- 
den, and from then on they will prove no 
more trouble than if the tubers had been used 
instead of seed.

Godetia 








Flower seeds are divided into three 
classes: Annuals, Biennials and Peren- 
nials. 
ANNUALS — Plants which, when 
grown from seed, mature, flower and 
die in one year. 
BIENNIALS—Plants which live two 
years, usually blooming only during the 
second year. 
PERENNIALS—Plants which, when 
grown from seed, usually begin bloom- 
ing the second year, and continue to 
live and bloom each succeeding year. 


Geranium 
These grow rapidly from seed the first year 
and produce blooming plants the first summer. 
There is a great deal of pleasure in watching 
them develop from seed, and there is always
