_Editor Mayflower:_
A friend of mine has a Winter Gem Rose, received as a premium with THE
MAYFLOWER three or four years ago. This is put in the garden in summer,
where it grows and blooms all summer. It is potted, cut back and taken
in the house through the winter. It soon grows new branches and blooms
nicely here. It is a favorite with the whole family. This same friend
has the Bouquet Petunias, also a premium with THE MAYFLOWER. She has
kept the old plant summer and winter, until this last summer it did not
seem to do as well so she took slips. I planted mine in a flower-bed.
They come up each year, some are mixed with some other kinds, but last
summer there were some the same as the original.--_L. N. F._
