ALONSOA
These popular half-hardy flowers are not only valuable for a summer
display in borders, but they make charming subjects for the conservatory
in the spring months. For blooming outdoors seed may be sown in pans in
March and the plants treated in the manner usual for half-hardy annuals,
or a sowing can be made in the open towards the end of April. Plants for
flowering indoors in April and May should be raised from seed sown in
the preceding August and September. Grow on the seedlings steadily in
pots, but do not force them in any way. In fact, the treatment should be
as nearly hardy as possible, a night temperature of 45 deg. being generally
sufficient to carry them through the winter.
