If you would haveyour garden flowers blossom to their fullest do not allow the seed to form, but pick each blossom before it fades. An average yield of plants from good seeds, if planting and cultivating instructions are followed, will be something like the following: Panay plants will give two or three blooms daily as long as the weather remains cool, and longer than that if you cultivate and water then well. Stveetpeas—From each plant, dur- ing the height of their blooming sea- eon.'there should be three or four stalks of blooms. Marigolds—Through the season as a whole you can expect about fifteen blooms from each marigold plant. Asters—From each aster plant at least ten blossoms should .appear through the season. Calendulas—These plants average. twelve blossoms through about tw their v s blooming g season. Cosmos—There may be as many as thirty-six blossoms to each cosmos plant, varying in size from very small, Pale -colored ones near 'the roots to large, loose -petaled flowers at the top. Dahlias—If you do not prune out the buds to give a few large blossoms a sturdy dahlia plant should average at least thirty blossoms if the weather ` is not too hot. Larkspurs—The blossoms grow on spikes, and each plant may be expect- ed tohfive six ave or spikes. Zinnias—Prom the time zinnias be- gin to bloom at least twelve flowers to. each plant should make their ap- pearance before frost. _ Poppies—Poppies:' are such riotous bloomers that it is difficult to deter- mine an average number of blossoms for one season.
