THE BOOK OF ANNUALS 

 By ALFRED C. HOTTES 



Annuals are like Hawthorne's Miraculous Pitcher which filled itself 

 as soon as the fluid was poured from it. With annuals, the more 

 blooms we pluck the more they bloom. Now is the time to sow annual 

 seed. This book covers over 100 separate species.

GAILLARDIA 



The gorgeous colors produced by Gaillardias make these flowers 

 particularly valuable for garden decoration. They show conspicu- 

 ously in borders, where the plants will remain in bloom for a long 

 period and the flowers afford charming tints for color schemes. As 

 cut flowers, Gaillardias are extremely popular for the bold decora- 

 tion of bowls and vases, for which purpose they should be widely 

 grown.
