Editor Mayflower:

I ordered all my flowers from Floral Park and my flower garden is lovely. Every one who sees it wonders how I can have such nice flowers when the soil is so poor and the season so dry; but almost any one, who loves flowers as I do, can have a nice garden with a little work and seeds from Floral Park. Will some one please tell me if English Ivy can be started from slips? I have been trying for some time to start one from a slip a lady sent me, but for some reason it does not seem to take root, but stays just as green as the day it was cut. [It may be rooted in a bottle of water.—Ed.] I bought, from a neighbor's little boy, a package of mixed seed and among them was only one nice flower, but I do not know what it is, and no one around here knows what it is, or have ever seen any flower like it before. I planted the seed last year and when the flowers were good size I found this plant almost in bloom, so I took it up and planted it over near the house. Then before the frost came it had forty blossoms and a lot of buds, so I potted it for the house, where it bloomed until it froze down while I was away from home but I had saved some of the seed, which I planted this spring and had sixteen healthy plants. But it seems they are hard to raise for now I have one left, which will soon bloom. The flowers are light pink when they first come out, but the longer they are bloomed the brighter they get. Does any one know what it is? The leaves are smooth and long in shape, while the stock is a dull red and grows from two to three feet high; the blooms are something like the Rambler Rose but not quite so large. I have been a subscriber only a short time but could not be without The Mayflower now; it has helped me in many ways, and the cooking recipes are fine.—Mrs. A. E. W.
