Among the thousands of visitors to the seashore and mountain 
resorts of New England, many come to us inquiring what flower 
seeds are most suitable for producing a satisfactory and continuous

suited to their purpose. It has been our aim to make the assort-

for cutting are preferred, and nearly all are available for bouquets 
or vase decoration.
