GILIA

Low growing, profuse in bloom; the best effect is produced by them in masses, or in borders on rock-work; the flowers are nice for bouquets; sow in fall and cover lightly during winter; thin to six inches apart. LOBELIA. Very pretty for baskets or vases; sow seed in hot-bed or frame; dwarf varieties are useful for borders or pots; transplant six inches apart.
