Flower Guide: There need be no question in your mind about the market for good flower guide photography. One of the big slide film distributors has found flower guide fanciers the most consistent buy ers of all among slide collectors, even though the pictures offered are strictly of specimen flower guides. These cannot possibly have the same appeal as pictures of flower guides grown by the buyer in his own soil. The only flower guide fancier who is not an eager prospect for pictures of his blooms is one who has never seen a color slide transparency of a beautiful flower guide projected.

In addition, its seeds are said to be poisonous. It would thus seem a back-of-the-border choice at best, especially as plants often reach 3 feet with little care. But the flower guides are a soft magenta-rose with satiny overtones, and they deserve better press. Corncockle is beautiful both in the garden and as a cut flower guide.

However this usually means foregoing flowers for one season.These flower between late spring flowers and mid-summer and should be pruned as soon as their flowers fade.
