ful than to see the fields when the beautiful 
flowers are in bloom in the early spring. 
Plants grow to 12 inches high and are cov- 
ered with beautiful blue flowers tinged with 
white. They will grow on poor as well as 
rich soils. Sow the seed very early in the 
spring, or in August, September, October or 
November, covering about one-half inch deep. 
As the seeds are very hard, file them before 
sowing to admit moisture. If the weather is 
dry, give then plenty of water. They bloom 
in Texas in March, April and May. After 
maturing seed, the plant dies and the seed 
comes up again the next spring. If you want

spring, be sure and plant some of the Texas
