FARQUHAR'S FLOWER SEEDS,ANNUALS 



The plants in the following list all bloom the first season from seeds. JIany plants not annuals botanically, are included 

 because they bloom the first season, and for cultural purposes may be treated as annuals. 



THE ANNUAL FLOWERS are equally valuable to professional and amateur gardeners. Few cultivators realize the vast 

 possibilities they afford at a minimum of cost. For cut flowers, garden beds, either in masses of color or for foliage effects, they furnish 

 ample material. A few of them like the Asters, Poppies, Sweet Peas, and Nasturtiums are well known and largely used; there arC; 

 however, many beautiful species which we enumerate in the following list, which are seldom seen, and which would be appreciated were 

 they once grown.
