Hart & Vicks SCABIOSA 
C It is very easily and quickly grown, blooms 
very freely during the summer and fall, and is one of the finest of all get flowers for the 
house. Average height 14 feet. Sometimes called Pincushion Flower because the stamens 
in many colors are very prominent and resemble somewhat pins in a pincushion. This strain

The best way to grow these plants success- 
fully, is to start the seed indoors early, in boxes 
or pots, and transplant to the garden when 
danger of frost is past. If you can’t do this, 
sow the seed outdoors in the garden early, in 
a rich, rather light loam soil, mixed with peat 
moss and well-rotted manure. Stocks require 
cool growing weather to blossom well.
