Spring-Flowering New Cuthbertson 
For greenhouse sowing between October and February, this new strain 
is superior to the early or winter class. While the stronger growth makes 
them a week or 10 days later flowering, they are generally longer stemmed 
and last longer into the spring than the weaker-growing earlies. They are 
also excellent for outdoor planting, being very resistant to hot weather. 
Seed sown this past spring in early March produced plants that remained 
in good bloom until the middle of August.
