Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. 4 Currie's Seed Store, Milwaukee, Wisconsin > ARCTOTIS GRANDIS (African Lilac Daisy) A handsome hardy annual of the easiest culture, bearing large, showy flowers which are pure white on the upper surface with a pale blue eye, surrounded by a narrow yellow zone, and pale lilac- blue on the reverse side. The plants are heavily branched, form- ing large bushes from 2 to 3 feet high. There are few annual flowers grown in the garden more valuable for cut flower work than the Arctotis. It is easily grown from seed, and may be started in hotbed, in the house, or in the open ground, the seed germinating in about five days, and the plants may be expected to come into bloom early in July and continue until hard frost. It delights in a sunny situation. As a cut flower it is especially valuable, the blooms lasting a week or ten days in water, and if undeveloped buds are cut and placed in a sunny window every one will open and produce as fine flowers as though left on the plant.
