MALACOIDES 
‘“SPRINGTIME”’ 
SPRINGTIME is one of the finest Malacoides ever 
offered. This color is an attractive SALMON pink 
which does not fade with age. The flower stems 
are strong and support a profusion of good sized 
blooms; and unlike many other varieties of Mala- 
coides, the foliage has good texture and is fairly 
resistant to rot. Thus the outstanding features of 
this variety are its pleasing salmon pink color, 
compact habit of growth and excellent keeping

Stocks are very satisfactory for Winter and Spring 
flowering. Sowing the seed in August and bench- 
ing in October, the first flowers may be cut before 
Christmas if additional light (40-60 watt lamps 
spaced 5 feet) is used. Without this aid the crop 
will come into flower in January. Continuity of 
bloom may be obtained by successive sowings. 
This non-branching type, which has come into gen- 
eral use, should be planted 3 inches in the row and 
6 inches between rows, producing a single stem. 
Flowering of stocks only occurs when the tem- . 
peratures are below 60 degrees for the greater
