Description
Excerpt from My Garden in Summer
The garden gave me a curious effect of the over lapping Of Spring and Summer this season in an unusually early offering of Sweet Peas, from plants raised in pots and planted out betimes, while I was still able to gather a good bunch of Daffodils, and for over a fortnight I had these unusual companions side by side on a ?ower table. Of course the first Sweet Peas are generally the best; on the other hand these last Daffodils were the worst Of the season, but were Of great interest to me, for they represented an experiment I had undertaken to find out what is the best way to treat bulbs from New Zea land, and how soon they can be acclimatised to our seasons and fit for the Show table.
