SALPIGLOSSIS Half-Hardy Annual 
Salpiglossis are highly ornamental annuals, 
with large, veined, funnel-shaped flowers; much 
prized for cutting; very showy in beds or bor- 
ders. A bed of these beautiful plants is one of 
the most striking features of the garden during 
July and August. Salpiglossis also make splendid 
pot plants for groups in the greenhouse. 
If an early display is wanted, a start should 
be made at the end of February or beginning of 
March, by sowing on a moderate hotbed. In 
May the plants will be ready for flowering 
quarters. Or sow in April in the open ground 
where the plants are to remain. For flowering 
under glass, seed should be sown in August or 
September, and under-~cool-house treatment the 
plants will bloom profusely in the following 
spring. 
Sutton’s Large-Flowered 
3988. Mixed Per packet 40c 
Including large-flowered sorts only. A beau- 
tiful mixture. 
SALVIA 
Fireball! Per packet 40c 
A compact, large-flowered Salvia splendens, 
which commences blooming in July from an 
early sowing in heat. The plants are literally 
covered with long spikes of brilliant scarlet 
flowers. Produces a very striking effect in 
beds. 
SCHIZANTHUS - 
Poor Man’s Orchid 
Schizanthus should be grown in every garden 
for it is a lovely plant with masses of small 
Orchid-like blooms making -an effective and 
unusual show in the border. As a cut flower it 
is exquisite when used to fill in flower arrange- 
ments and gives a change from the usual Baby’s 
Breath. For early bloom sow seed under glass 
in early March; for later blooms sow towards the 
end of April or early May. 
Towards the end of April or in May seed may 
be sown out-of-doors. To ensure very fine speci- 
mens for blooming in spring, seed should be 
sown under glass late in August or early in Sep- 
tember. A high temperature is not required for 
Schizanthus, even in the winter months. 
Hybrid Type 
4083. Sutton’s Pansy-Flowered (Danbury 
Park Strain) Per packet 40c 
One of the most attractive subjects that can 
be grown in the greenhouse. Our strain in- 
cludes many rich self-colors in diverse shades 
of pink, crimson, mauve and purple, as well as 
white, and a group of these plants makes a 
mass of wonderful coloring. The large smooth- 
edged Pansy-flowered blooms are remarkably 
substantial. Award of Merit, R. H. S., 1936, 
Sutton’s Pansy-Flowered Schizanthus 

STATICE - Sea Lavender 
The Sea Lavenders have become extremely 
popular, especially for cutting for house dec- 
oration. The cloudlike masses of flowers of the 
branching varieties make borders gay for a long 
time, while their delicate coloring and light 
graceful habit are a great help to other ever- 
lasting flowers. 
4206. Sinuata, Special Mixture Packet 25c 
The large-flowered Sea Lavender, which is also 
extensively grown for the cut-flower market. 
Succeeds admirably under treatment as a half- 
hardy annual. Makes a graceful pot plant for 
the conservatory, and the dried flowers are 
most effective for winter decoration. Height 
18 inches. 
Sutton’s 
Sweet Williams 
Dianthus Barbatus 
French, Oeillet de poete. Hardy biennial. 
Height about 18 inches. Sweet Williams are as 
important for the garden in the early summer 
as are Antirrhinums and Asters in the later 
months. The Pink Beauty, Scarlet, and Giant 
White varieties are especially attractive, and 
make possible at a somewhat difficult period of 
the year brilliant bedding effects on a large 
scale, equal to those obtained with Antirrhin- 
ums or Wallflowers. Seed of the biennial vari- 
eties should be sown in May, June, or July, and 
the plants transferred to blooming quarters in 
the autumn.

be grown in every garden.

Beauty, from which this variety has been sel- 
ected. The flowers are of an intense scarlet, 
similar to that of Grenadin Carnation. A‘ bed 
of this Sweet William is very striking.

William; many attractive shades of salmon, 
deep pink, cerise, and other charming colors.

Coen-( Week Stocks 
Delightfully fragrant heavy trusses of double 
flowers in spires on strong stems make Stocks 
an indispensable flower for the garden and cut- 
ting. 
It is usual to sow annual’Stocks under glass 
from the middle to the end of March. Sow 
thinly that the plants may become stout, and 
from the first give air freely when practicable. 
Prick off the seedlings into pans or boxes and 
give them the protection of a cold frame. An- 
nual Stocks can also be successfully grown from 
sowie made in the open about the end of 
pri.

yields double flowers.
