Ten lias Stock, white, pink, purple; June and

EASILY GROWN PERENNIALS 
Both the perennials and the biennials following 
should all blossom the first year if started in the 
house in March :— 
Gaillardia, red, yellow. 
Forget-me-not, lovely blue. 
Larkspur, blue. 
Snapdragon, white, red, purple, yellow, pink. 
Sweet William, white, pink, red, maroon, plain, 
' varigated. 
Coreopsis, yellow.

Iceland Poppy, yellow, white, scarlet. 
Get as many as you can—and your space will 
permit,—of all the lovely old perennials and the 
bulbs that come up every season with little or no 
care. One of the oldest,—now deserted—farm- 
houses on Long Island, still carries in its dooryard 
the impress of some gentle flower-lover long since 
passed away, in its annual spring beauty of daffo- 
dils and lilies-of-the-valley. And the few bulbs and 
pips transplanted from there to my own garden, 
have thrived and spread so profusely that I, too, 
can pass them on to others.
