NASTURTIUM — ALL-PURPOSE FAVORITE 
Few garden annuals respond with as 
little care as the Nasturtium. For ease 
of culture, duration of bloom, brilliancy 
of coloring, they are unexcelled. All they 
need is a moderately good soil, in a well- 
drained, sunny position and within a few 
weeks from the time they are sown until 
hard frost comes, there is an endless pro- 
fusion of their gorgeous blossoms.
