nese forget-me-not, Blue Moon
scabiosa, calendula, salpiglossis,
Drummonds phlox and stocks,
few bouquets would be as pleas
ing. With most of these, cutting
may continue until frost cuts
them down.
There is still time to sow seed
of calendula, cosmos, and Drum
mond's phloX. Seeding plants of
the others should be purchased
at florist and garden shops and
set out Immediately. And, quite,
naturally, ANIMALS prefer a good
soil, we'll drained and plenty of
sunshine, with watering when
ever the soil becomes dry.
Cosmos are old favorites and
one of the easiest flowers to
grow. Always popular they are
more SO now due to the intro
duction Of the velvety dark red,
pink, and white double crested
varieties, and the brilliant new
orange flare and orange ruffles.
Chinese forget-me-not (Cyno-
glossumD, with graceful, loose
sprays of various blues, are
among the best the ANIMALS Of
fer in that color, and are of easy
culture in any soil. Try Fairy
Blue, 30 inches tall, and Firma-
ment, but half as high and COW
cred with bright indigo blue
blossoms.
The new giant calendulas,
with names such as Apricot,
Lemon Queen, Orange King and
Moonlight aptly described the
colors, withstand heavy frosts
and are the last of the ANIMALS
to die. But one must be sure
to keep cutting to insure contin-
uous blooming.
Salpiglossis is one of the few
good flowers that thrive in a hot
and dry climate and actually
reward you with large flowers
in many attractive warm colors.
Its blossoms, which are set off
by veins of gold, are similar in
shape to petunia, and are
borne profusely until late in au-
tumn.
Scabiosa Blue Moon, a four
foot plant with large blossoms
OF conical shape, sky blue tinged
with lavender, borne on long
strong stems, are ideal for cut
ting. Oother Scabiosa, ranging
in height from 18 to SO inches,
may be had in colors like SAL
mon-pink, azure-blue, black
purple, sulfur-yellow. scarlet
and white. Scabiosas have a soft
fragrance, and add beauty to
the garden picture.
Stocks-we used to call them
Cut and Come Again do best
in cool weather and only plants
which have made good growth
should be set out. Their heavy
spikes of handsome fragrant
flowers, like small rosettes, are
produced in a wide range of soft
and distinct shades; many Of the
flowers are double.
Drummond's Plox, a most sat-
isfactory annual, begins to
bloom in early summer and con-
tinues until late autumn If
flowers are regularly cut. Ex-
cellent for bedding, borders and
edgings, as varieties range in
height from six to IS inches.
