Xas urtiunis are staging a comeback in garden favor. For half a century prior to the World war the two flowers most widely planted in American gardens were sweet peas and nasturtiums. Seeds of these flowena were handled in bulk by dealers who had no o.her flower seeds. When flower gardening began to spread following the war, nasturtiums seemed to lose ground in public favor. No doubt there was shift to other subjects by gardeners who wan ed aomething new. The same impulse is now causing i thousands to try nasturtiums again because of the great success achieved first by the fragrant double yellow variety Golden Gleam, and now by 1•< hybrids, most prominent of which is the variety Scarlet Gleam. Scarlet Gleam is a red Golden Gleam, having the same form and fragrance, with a vivid orangescarlet coloring. If anything, its fragrance is grea'er and its flowers larger and more uniformly double than its parent. Its foliage is similar to Golden Gleam, and it has the came trailing habit. While nasturtiums are tropical flowers, native in Peru, and «tbey prefer soil which is relatively dry land not too rich, at the same time
• | they do not like extreme hot i weather. So remember to give, I them a location where they may | have some protection from the i midday sun, if possible; and do ‘ not let them go too long without water, if you want plenty of their, I beautiful flowers. i (Scarlet Gleam was awarded a i gold medal in the All-American trials for 1935. At the same time 1 ! a mixed strain of Golden Gleam | ‘ hybrids won an award of merit. ■ i In this mixture are several differ-! ent colors and combinations, of ‘ ( fragrant double nasturtiums, some 11 of which you may like better than j Scarlet Gleam. As selections of| ! certain colors and forms are made from the mixture and "fixed" as; the plant breeders term it. the list ot named double varieties will no doubt be enlarged. At the same time, with public attention again fixed on the nas- ( tur.ium family, this once popular i clan may again gain leadership in : ■ garden decoration. There are ' many excellent varieties of single ‘ flowers, in a great range of colors I and ot both dwarf and climbing habit, which are available for i I I garden use. ,j o I •Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
