These boxes are made of material which retains the moisture, and are so compact that the air cannot dry the soil as with earthenware pots. When ready for planting out, the material of which the boxes are made is so sodden and well rotted that it forms a manure, and can be set out in the cold frame or border without disturbing the soil. ‘STAR’ SEED PROPAGATING BOXES can be supplied in very smaU sizes suitable for the smallest seeds, or larger sizes suitable for Sweet Peas, in handy Seedling Trays.
