MIGNONETTE (Reseda) — Normal germination, 
8-10 Days. No annual is a more general favor- 
ite than the Mignonette. Of the easiest culture, 
it adapts itself to all situations, but prefers a 
cool rich soil in a shady position. Sow where 
wanted to grow, or else handle in pots, as they 
do not transplant well. Its greatest usefulness is 
in combination with those cut-flowers which 
lack the fragrance in which this flower so 
abounds, Reseda is found in Southern Europe, 
Northern Africa, the Canary Islands, and some 
species in the U. S. : 
Large Flowering Mixed. 
MOONFLOWER (Ipomoea Grandifiora )—Normal 
germination, 8.15 Days. These beautiful, rap- 
id-growing climbers will grow about 30 feet 
in one season. Though really a perennial, is best 
treated as an annual, as it will not survive 
northern winters. Leaves are large and the 
flowers, which open as the sun is sinking are 
very fragrant. We have found it best to plant 
the seeds one half inch deep, after having 
soaked them overnight in warm water. Early 
planting essential. Use no fertilizer. 
Mexicana Grandiflora Alba. White flowers, 6 
inches wide. Opens only night and morning. 
Large, smooth, dark foliage. 
Bona-Nox (Evening Glory). Large fragrant 
flowers opening in the evening. Purple throat, 
shading to lavender. 
MORNING GLORY—Normal germination, 5-10 
Days. Native to nearly all the world. If start- 
ed indoors, handle in pots, as they do not 
transplant well. Never use fertilizer of any 
kind on morning glories. Soak seed in water 24 
hours before sowing. 
Heavenly Blue, Clark’s Early Flowering. <A 
beautiful blue flower 4 or 5 inches across. White 
and yellow throat. Ideal climber. Sandy, grav- 
elly soil and southern exposure best. 
y Imperial Mixed, A warm situation protected 
Morning Glory from winds is best for this variety.

Selections Committee for 1939. A rich, dark 
wine-red variety, blooming 65 days after sow- 
ing. An addition to almost any garden. 
NASTURTIUMS — Normal germination, 8-10 
Days. ‘Black Bugs” may be kept off Nastur- 
tiums by placing an ordinary camphor ball 
every 6 inches along the row. This should be 
done when plants are about 2 inches tall. 
Double Sweet-Scented Novelties:

en-yellow flowers distinctly double in form, will
