| | | | |great care that the
| | | | |soil be new and
| | | | |well drained,
| | | | |sprinkle powdered
| | | | |sulphur and unslaked
| | | | |lime on surface and
| | | | |dig it in shortly
| | | | |before setting out
| | | | |the seedlings.
| | | | |Also spray young
| | | | |plants well with
| | | | |diluted Bordeaux

| | | | |before the flowers
| | | | |show colour.
| | | | |A large bed should
| | | | |be given to this
| | | | |flower, with either
| | | | |a wall or hedge as a
| | | | |background, and they
| | | | |should be allowed to
| | | | |seed themselves from
| | | | |the best flowers.
| | | | |Thus a natural and
