S. Trrjtury Dlportmtnl More Flowers In Postwar Gardens ?Photo Courtesy Ptrry-Mor* Sood Oo. This year many a home dooryard will take on gayer colon than for aome yean past. Victory Gardenen who concentrated on vegetable growing during the war can now afford to give more attention and space to flowen while con tinuing to raise enough vegetables for the table. From now on, seed of a greater range of flowen will be available, too. Certain kinds which were produced to ? iuniica extern or not at au auruiy? the war are coining back. , You can find annual flowera suitable for almost any location on your home grounds. Is the soil sandy and inclined to be poor? Nasturtiums often like it better and bear more abundant bloom than when the seed is sown in more fertile ground. The same is true of poppies, portulaca, and zinnias. Do you have a 'hot spot' where the soil is likely to dry out rapidly? Orna mental sunflowers, petunias, annual gaillardia, calliopsis, sweet alysrum, four o'clocks, and cosmos can endure quite a lot of heat and drought. No annual flowers will thrhra in all shade, but in a place where they get sunshine only part of each day you can enjoy the modest beauty of pansies, violas, bachelor buttons, and mignon ette. , Plan for a border of annuals that will furnish cut flowers over a long season with plenty left on the plants for door yard charm. Most flowers do well in the same kind of soil that will grow good vegetables. No annual flower In the world I* more attractive, graceful, and longer lasting than the aster. Be sure to select wilt-resistant strains in their lovely pastel tints and shades. Other easily grown annuals with long stems for cutting are tall marigolds, giant rirmlas, calendula. Pink Queen cleome, and cosmos in white, pink, orange, and the newer yellow tints. With shorter stems, though still ideal for bowls and vases and effective in the foreground at a border, are lilliput zinnias, the brave array at newly developed dwarf mari golds, annual pinks and chryaenthe- I mums, snapdragons, and bachelor but tons in white, rose, red, and the popu lar blue. Somewhere near a porch where you sit after the day's work is done, raise a clump or row at nicotians or "flow ering tobacco.* The plants with their long trumpet blossoms are attractive, and a breath at the heavenly fragrance as night falls will well repay you for giving nicotians a spot in which to grow.
