Balloon
Plants
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

HAVE YOU ever stood in the
garden in the bright sun of a
summer day and heard quite
near to you the sound of a
flower opening? This is what
may happen TO you if you grow
the Chinese balloon plant-and
if you never have. you certainly
ought TO begin this year.
The balloon plant (Platy-
codon) is a perennial growing
about a foot and a half high.
1t comes up rather late in
spring, blooms during the sum-
mer; bearing many flowers that
are shaped like a tiny balloon
before they open, like a bell
after they have popped. 1t is
this pop" of opening that may
be plainly heard at a distance
of several feet from the plant.
Also a Dwarf Species
There are blue balloons and
white ones, equally lovely. Then
there is a dwarf species that
also flowers in the same colors
but blooms over longer period.
These plants thrive in sun.
They must have perfect drain
, age and prefer sandy soil. They
may be bought as plants, in
which case it is best 10 set them
in the spring, or may be grown
from seed. They are one of the
easier perennials TO reproduce
in this manner, and Of course
one packet Of seed will give
more than enough plants for
one garden.
Can Be Sown Now
Balloon flowers will blossom
the first year from seed sown
early enough. This means that
seed might be started in the
house now, or could be Sown
outside as soon as the weather
permits II II Is planted IN a cold
frame or under some sort of
glass protection.
A wooden box with the bot
tom knocked out and a sheet of
glass set across the top could
be set somewhere in the garden
almost any day The soil under
il will soon dry out, influenced
by the sun.
Within a week the soil will
probably be at stage that per-
mits planting. And the glass
covering over the seed, in addi-
tion 10 the sprinkle Of soil, will
protect seedlings from heavy
