Queen Anne’s Lace Flower 
Plant from September thru January 
Approx. time seed sowing to bloom—2 to 3 mos. 
Grows 3 to 5 feet high. 
Queen Anne’s Lace Flower has large heads 
made up of tiny white flowers, giving it a 
lace-like appearance. The flower clusters are 
borne on long stems which makes this flower 
very suitable to mix with other cut flowers, 
giving the bouquet an airy appearance. For 
best results plant at least two feet apart in 4 
foot rows as crowding stunts the growth of 
the plants. Valuable for backgrounds.

BONFIRE. This early, tall, and erect strain 
is extremely uniform in both color and plant 
habit. It is somewhat earlier than the ordinary 
strains, suitable for both bedding and borders 
of medium height. The plants bear immense 
spikes of very showy, intense scarlet flowers, 
throughout the entire season, which makes at- 
tractive bouquets. Seed should be sown in flats 
or seedbed, transplanting to 3 foot rows, 18 
inches in the row.
