This is not to be wondered at, as, whether used for cutting or for show in the garden, they are one of the most valuable flowers which can readily be grown from seed. We offer two dis- tinct types, the large-flowering, tall-growing, or giant, and the equally large-flowered, half-dwarf variety. In our trials the seeds sown out of doors the first week of May came into bloom early in July, remaining in full flower until November. For earlier flowering, they may be started indoors or in a frame in March, transplanting them to the open when the weather is suitable. Giant Varieties.
