ROBSON QUALITY SEEDS, HALL, NEW YORK 
For the best in Morning Glories grow Heavenly 
Blue and Pearly Gates. 
MORNING GLORIES 
In growing Morning Glories never plant un- 
til the soil is thoroughly warm. If it is too 
cool the seeds will rot instead of germinating. 
To aid germination soak the seed overnight in 
warm water. Sow where the plants are to 
flower as they do not transplant easily. Morn- 
ing Glories show off to best advantage when 
planted against a wall, fence, or trellis. Height 
12 ft. or more. Mixed Colors are not as large 
flowered as Heavenly Blue and Pearly Gates.

The sweet fragrance and ease and effectiveness 
with which they can be arranged make Nasturti- 
ums an ideal annual to grow. 
NASTURTIUM 
This valuable annual with vivid single or 
double flowers of yellow, orange or red, thrives 
in a sunny position or in shade. An overly 
rich soil will cause the plants to produce 
more leaves than flowers. The brilliant col- 
ors and refreshing fragrance of the flowers 
make them ideal for cutting. Nasturtiums are 
subject to pernicious black lice which, if un- 
checked by a nicotine spray (See page 32 Black 
Leaf 40), completely ruin the plants. Sow 
in the garden after danger of frost. Thin to 
12 inches. Height | ft.

Try sowing our Swiss Giant Pansy seed directly 
in the border in May for constant bloom from 
July ’til snow flies. 
PANSIES 
Pansies are beautiful in beds by themselves, 
as edging plants, and when eee: with 
spring flowering bulbs for color after the 
bulbs are through. Seed sown in early spring 
will produce late summer and fall blooming 
plants. For early spring flowers, sow the seed 
in July or August in a coldframe — transplant 
when large enough to where they are to 
flower. 
Pansy seed requires shade and moisture for 
germination. If provided, our seed, which is 
fresh and vigorous, will give abundant plants.
