NEMESIA (hA). Growth 8 to 12 inches. 
Has bright yellow, orange and red blos- 
soms, resembling those of snapdragons in 
miniature. Seed may be planted in flats in 
March and set out the end of May for 
early blooms, or may be sown out doors 
after danger ‘of frost has passed. They 
should be set close so that the frail stems 
may support one another. Very effective 
in window boxes. Grows best in rich, 
well fertilized, light garden loam. Can 
be grouped with Clarkia, Salpiglossis, 
Snapdragons. Mixed. Packet, 10c. 
NEMOPHILA (hA). Grows 6 inches 
high. If seeds are grown early in spring 
in a semi-shaded spot in the border, or 
on the edge of the wild garden, the small 
bright flowers will appear continuously 
all summer. Has wide-open or broadly 
bell-shaped blossoms held on short stems 
above prettily cut leaves. Seed may be 
sown from October to March. Blue.

NICOTIANA (Flowering Tobacco). 
(hA). These stately plants are very fine 
for back-ground in an annual bed. Pro- 
duces large, trumpet-shaped blooms until 
frost. Sow seed March-June in rich 
moist light loam. Grow from 3 to 5 feet. 
Crimson, White, Mixed. Packet, 10c. 
NIGELLA (Love-in-the-Mist). (ChA). 
Grows to 11% feet and has pale blue or 
white flowers surrounded and partially 
concealed by the finely cut green leaves.

are most attractive in mixed bouquets. 
Seed can be sown in the spring as early 
as the ground can be worked. 
Packet, 10c. 
PANSY (Viola Tricolor). (hA). Has 
long been grown in beds and borders 
because of its ease of culture and the 
wonderful diversity in color and markings. 
They do well in any good light soil, but 
prefer a sandy, loamy deep planting 
where they will not be overshadowed by 
trees or too much exposed to hot dry 
sun, Planting is best performed in spring 
or early autumn; it is advisable to sow in 
June for transplanting in autumn and in 
late August for the early spring trans- 
plants. Sow seed in light soil, cover 
slightly, and transplant to boxes as soon 
as large enough. Low growing and
