The weather so far has been
most favorable to the gardener
There have been a number OF
week ends in which he could
comfortably work in the gar
den. Mild weather tended to
keep some of the plants from
staying completely dormant
However. there is little the gar
dener can do to overcome such
a handicap except to shelter the
tender evergreenS from the
suns rays.
Within q week or two we
should be sowing the first of
many kinds Of seeds which we
will want to start indoors II
the plants are to reach trans
planting size by the time they
should be set out of doors. In
this connection we should keep
in mind that the hardy plants
such as cabbage, broccoli, cal
endulas. etc. should be ready
to go into the garden in late
March or early April. Tender
plants should not be set out of
doors until the last week in
April. and those that want a
warm soil and no chilling
breezes are kept indoors until
the first week in May.

Star Garden Editor

The 1860 all-America rose
selections were announced last
fall in time for gardeners to
include them in their orders
for fall planting. However, in
describing the all-America roses
for 1860, the number one pop
ularity poll flower for the Ma
ton, some of tn cir char
acteristics should be mentioned
Perhaps space also will permit
mention of those that did not
make the select few.
Three roses were announced
as the all-Americas for 1860;
Garden Party, a hybrid tea, anc
two foribundas-Fire King and
Sarabande. Those that grew
Garden Party last summer were
not particularly pleased with
the color, although the official
description says ivory at the
heart shading to cream and at
the edges an apple blossom
pink. 1t needs further testing
in this area.
Fire King f1oribunda is a ver-
million which contrasts nicely
with the bronzy foliage. The
flowers are fully double and
from 2 to 3 inches in diameter
Sarabande, the other flori-
bunda, is an orange-red. The
semidouble flowers contrast
nicely with the bright yellow
stamens. It is a wonderfully
long-lasting rose when cut ano
brought indoors.
The other new roses for 1866
include Cover Girl, a hybrid tes
with long pointed buds opening
to a combination of orange
cepper and gold colored blooms
Tanya is a deep orange col.
ored seeding of Peace with
huge flowers.
Ell Captain Is a grandifiora
described as q velvety crimson
in color.

News About go Roses
Covers "a or More

High Time is another un-
usual colored hybrid tea-flame
to claret-rose with gold on the
backs of the petals.
Hawaii is an orange coral
hybrid tea.
Golden Girl is a clear yellow
grandiflora.
Royal Velvet is q deep red
hybrid tea (the necks seem too
weak to support the bloom).
Pink Duchess is a pink and
gold Seeding Of Peace.
My Choice is a yellow splashed
with vermillion that won the
British award for fragrant
roses.
Dawn is a combination of
pink, copper, salmon and april
cot with a touch Of yellow.
Golden Glow is a yellow
dahlia- like rose with a hundred
petals.
The list of horibundas is even
longer: Coral Crown, Brownie,
Malibu, Firecracker, Lavender
Princess, Pinafore, Korona,
Oberon, Poulsen's Pearl, Poul-
sens Supreme, Rudolph Timm
and Prairie Fire.
There are the new additions
to the Miniatures: Lollipop,
Pink Heather and Mona Ruth,
To these we should add
Schneezwerg, a rugosa hybrid
and Sparrieshoop, a pillar rose.
Then there are three others,
that are not classified as to
type: Spring Song, Grenadine
and Karolyn. This brings the
list to "a, but one is never cer-
tain it is complete. One adver-
tiSement lists Governor Rosel-
lini, a red grandiflora, as new
for 1860. and indicates that
Angel Wings, a pink, cream and
gold hybrid tea, is also new.
We are under the impression
that they were introduced in
1859.

neighboring form or size plays
quite an important part. The
principals of gradation and
repetition are necessary for the
expression of rhythmic Sc
quence.
This is a far cry from a
naturalistic grouping or a
purely creative expression of
imagination. 1t is a style which
is satisfying in contemporary
decoration and has its place
in the homes Of today.
Try for Rhythmic Grouping
A rhythmic grouping of the
heather sprays is most i'm
portant. For heavens sake,
should your rhythm produce a
sort of cats whiskers." try it
again. 1t is important that you
group the linear pieces which
swirl in the same direction and
tie them together with twistum.
One group will then follow an
other to establish a certain
pattern and achieve the de-
sired form.
Placing a holder and Its
camouflage in the bottom of q
glass container only magnifies
your mechanics and destroys
the very reason for choosing
glass in the first place. To help
maintain the CLASSY. transpar.
ent quality of the container
use what I think Is a good
trick.
I simply attach the holder
with modelling clay to the bot
tom Of an inverted glass cup.
This cup. with its holder at
tached. is set into the container
already filled with water. With
my fingers I jiggle out most
OF the air which may be
trapped. The mechanics are
thus raised from the bottom
and I assure you that your
holder will be almost invisible.
/ You can see that the overall
form of the arrangement is
confined within a triangle. Full
play is given to the graceful,
curVing patterns of the heath
er. Air spaces between these
curves make the outline con-
genial with the airy glass bowl,
which, We see now, possesses
the same soft curves. Vertical,
horizontal and diagonal groups
OF heather now stand firmly
in the flower holder. To ac-
centuate the upright strength
OF the arrangement the two
snapdragonS are placed along
the central grouping.
Several pink roses and their
foliage are gathered about in
the foreground and two or
three of them stand back
beyond the snapdragons. In
that way the center of inter-
est becomes a deep, three di-
mensional area which holds our
eyes pleasingly after the excur-
sion along the swinging curves
of busy heather,

Reseed in February

If the thin places In the
lawn were not reseeded last
fall 1t should be done in Feb
ruary, yes even If the ground
is frozen or covered with snow.
Bluegrass seed takes about two
weeks to sprout, hence it should
be on the ground early. Fes-
cues are quicker to germinate,
3 to 5 days. but they can be
planted early. Do not strive to
get maximum thickness of turf
by seeding. it is impractical
and undesirable to have too
many plants per square foot
considering that they have to
have plant food and moisture
to thrive. If properly paced
they will send out shoots from
the crown that will soon fill the
spaces.

Heather Is a Personality BIoomer
BY MRS. HERBERT ". GREGER-

grew up with heather on the
hills. In fact. until I left Europe
I could not imagine a late sum-
mer or fall without a hike
through miles Of it. 1t was
then that I picked heather for
good luck, and I mostly grouped
is into massive purple clouds
with wild roses tucked in here
and there.
Once I found my sprig OF
white heather and I knew
would be a bride that year.
Our florists carry heather
most of the winter months
Even the grocery stores offer
packages of it. Much comes in
from our West Coast or from
France. Many of the finest and
more snowy heathers were de-
veloped from South African
species.
All varieties are happy in
very acid soil.
VermiIlion to Deep Rose
Heather comes in severa'
colors. from deep vermillion tc
deep rose, pink. gray-lavendel
and white. The size of the in.
dividual bell-shaped flowers
clustered on a tapering stalk
vary according to variety
These panicles may be yer!
branched and tufted or tapereC
to threadlike thinness.
Because of my early &C
quaintance with heather. I can,
not resist bringing it into my
home. However, the irregular
spready. tufty growth of my
wild heathery clouds will not de
for my arrangement today. The
panicles from the florist are
strikingly curved and beauti-
fully graduated, thus a natu.
ralistic Interpretation of a
memory will not be possible.
This heather vibrates with
rhythmic sequence, with strong
linear expression and sophisti-
cation. 1t insists on moving in
one particular way. Should you
try another, you will find its
face to the wall.
Yes, these are Strong-willed
particular and brittle flowers
They are beautiful in combina-
ton with some flowers. yet they
are unco-operative and simply
sulk with others. Their overall
crinkly texture and their sweep
ing linear form combine well
with opposites. Smooth sur
faced flowers which are self
contained circular shapes are
satisfying through sheer con-
trast. But. the heather must
stay in command, occupying
most Of the visual area.
First Consideration
1t is quite obvious, after
weighing these elemental quail
tiles, that we shall have to give
the form of our arrangement
first consideration. This form
will be dependent only on our
container.
My choice was a clear glass
bowl Of a soft blue shade with
a delicate criss-cross etching
overall. A teakwood base
serves as transition from the
light bowl to the heavy wood
Of a chest.
Pink roses are the compan-
ion flowers. Two pink snap
dragons were added for this
definite reason. In contempo-
rary arrangements, transition
from one form or size to the
