Save with Holiday Plants

A friend who had a new home where the grounds were still undeveloped was delighted with a Christmas gift of perennial plants. The gift was started in the spring before Christmas. They included hollyhock, larkspur, foxglove, phlox, pinks and sweetwilliams. All of these with the exception of phlox were raised from seed. As the plants could not be presented at Christmas time, I wrote the names of them on a card, tied it to a small garden hoe, and sent it on Christmas Day.-J. B., Appleton City, Mo.
