COSMOS Bloom All Summer 
These are among the most popular and easily 
grown annual flowers. They make a wonderful 
display in beds and borders in the garden and furnish 
plenty of cut blooms for house decoration in the fall 
when other flowers are scarce. Sow the seed out- 
doors just as soon as danger of frost is over, or start 
it in coldframes and then transplant. Thin or trans- 
plant to 18 inches apart, and pinch back the tops to 
make the plants branch.
