There is scarcely any flower in cultivation that makes such a dazzling display of beauty as a bed of many-hued, highly-colored Moss Flowers. They are in bloom from about the 1st of July until killed by the frost in autumn. Plant in open ground after it has become warm in light sandy soil, and in a dry situa- tion. After they appear, withhold water, and if the bed has a fuil expos- ure to the sun the ground will be covered with the plants, and the effect will be beautiful. Tender annual, nine inches high. They will stand any amount of dry weather; The double varieties of this plant are most beautiful. The blossoms are about one and a half inches across, perfectly double and of many colors.
